Getting Ready for Baby

With less than two weeks until the baby arrives, Taylor has been busily preparing for her baby brother. She's been supervising her mommy and daddy finish up all of the painting/decorating around the house. Taylor has also been helping with yard work...of course, this really just involves playing in Daddy's dirt piles. She helped him set up his new sprinkler system...and even helped him test it out by running through the water (sorry, no pictures of this incident!).

Taylor's favorite thing to do is to test out all of the "baby" stuff. For instance, she LOVES playing in the baby's bathtub. She grabs all of her bath toys out of the big bathtub and puts them in the baby bathtub. She also likes playing on the bouncing chair, the swing and the play mat. I guess one thing is for sure...if the bouncing chair and swing can support her, then we have no worries about the baby!!

Taylor has also been practicing her serenading skills. She likes to sing while she plays her daddy's guiter (see video below). Hopefully little brother will enjoy her music!

Seems like Taylor is going to be a good big sister in that she'll be showing him how to do everything. She'll definitely let him know if he's not doing it right!

Our next post most likely will be after the baby is here, so stay tuned!

Bathtub works!

So does the bouncing chair!

Taylor really enjoyed "test-driving" the tractors!

Making sure the tractor is in the right gear!

Outta the way people!
