Surprise Ge Ge!

Last weekend myself, Tayla and my mom traveled to Denver for the weekend to celebrate Ge Ge (Grandma Heads- Clay’s side) 85th Birthday party. It was a surprise party at Bob and Caryl’s house. We had a great time and Ge Ge was so excited. She is such a sweet lady and it was great to see the joy on her face just having the family together. Tayla enjoyed the time with her Papa and Grammy Hering.

I would have to say she has got it together and looks GREAT at 85. Happy 85th Birthday Ge Ge!

"Tayla… where is the screw?”

On Sunday afternoon, (a very snowing afternoon)Tayla and I decided to take apart her baby bed and turn it into a toddler bed. We took on this project while daddy was at the hospital doing clinicals. We took everything apart and started putting it back together, I then noticed I was missing a screw. Looking around Tayla’s room I could not find the screw so after about 20 minutes of looking I asked Tayla, “Tayla where is the screw, mommy needs it to finish putting together your bed.” Without saying a word (which is unusual for her) she marched out to the living room and over to the coffee table where she had placed the screw on a coaster. “here go mommy!” and she handed me the screw. She really enjoyed helping take apart and put together the bed. On the agenda for the next couple weeks is redoing her bedding. Oddly enough my inspiration for Tayla’s new bedding came for a pretty blue pillow from Wal-Mart. Currently I am working on sewing the curtains and the bed shirt… more to come! For first nap in her new toddler bed! :)

This is one of our*first* posts! I have been wanting to start a blog for over a year now... so finnaly hear we are. more to come!!
