Catching up

So much has been going on lately and I feel behind!

Friday (September 16th) was my 4th anniversary with Brian. We spent it cleaning the house and yard....hahaha in preparation for Molly's first birthday party! What fun! Brian was fixing himself some sandwiches for lunch so I asked him if he could make me one. So we had ham and cheese sandwiches for our anniversary! :)

Taylor's 14th birthday was Saturday, September 17th, which was the day of Molly's birthday party. So we celebrated Friday night at a place of his choosing....Copeland's (same place that Brian picked for his birthday, of course!). So we, along with David, Aspen and Tucker, Nannie and Poppa John and Mr. Jerry went to Copeland's. I don't foresee us eating out at nice places for a while because Molly has been a holy terror there the last couple of times. I guess I shouldn't call her that because she wasn't bad; she just didn't want to sit in her high chair. Taylor got a PS3 remote thing-a-ma-jig from us and Nannie and Poppa gave him some Star Wars Trilogy. Mr. Jerry gave him some money.

Molly's birthday party was Saturday. We rented the water slide and I think all the kids enjoyed it! Mary Claire LOVED it! She was so fun to watch her go down. She's so little compared to all of the other kids (and me!) that she just flew down the slide! I wish I had it on video! Molly was so funny with her smash cake; she would not eat it off her fingers! When we gave her a plastic spoon to eat it with she would scrape some icing off and then try to eat it off of there! She is a really sweet baby. She will play and play, but then want to cuddle and cuddle.

This weekend Molly has really started taking more and more steps. She's so funny to watch. When she falls, she will usually just start her speed-crawling; but sometimes she will start walking on her knees....now that is a funny sight!

As soon as I get some of Lillie's (she was our party photographer) pictures I will post them.
