We had a wonderful weekend on the ranch. Taylor got to feed the horses every morning with Poppy and cruise around in her jeep.  We had lunch with Nathan's grandparents and extended family on Sunday. Charlotte and I went to see The Help on Sunday night while the guys babysat. That movie was incredible! Loved it!

Pre-Kindergarten Meet the Teacher

Thursday was Meet the Teacher for Taylor's Pre-K class.  Taylor was so excited to get to meet her two new teachers, Ms. Amy and Ms. Kim.  The majority of the kids in her Pre-K class were in her class last year and even on of her friends from our ECPTA playgroup is in her class.



Fort Worth Zoo






I took the girls to the Fort Worth Zoo last Wednesday. We got there right when it opened and it there were barely any people there. It was so nice!  Taylor had a great time seeing all the animals. Zoey cracked me up. When she would notice the animals moving, she would squeal and laugh. The exhibits where the animals were just laying around, she didn't seem to notice them at all.

Princess Craft at the Disney Store






We took Princess Taylor to a Royal Princess Craft activity at the Disney Store. They made their own princess and wrote a story about their princess.

Basket rides



I pushed Zoey around the bedroom in the laundry basket while Taylor was taking a bath tonight.  When I took Zoey out of the basket and gave her one of Taylor's barbies to play with, she put the barbie in the basket and started pushing it around! So cute!  When Taylor got out of the bath, Taylor wanted to go for a ride in the basket, so the girls climbed in and away we went!

Zoey is 10 months old

I am so far behind on my blog!  To kind of catch you up; the girls spent a week and a half in Houston with my parents while I went out of town for work and our babysitter was on vacation.  Have to admit the first week was a blast going on dates every night with Nathan, but after a week, Nathan and I were missing the girls so bad we could hardly stand it.

Zoey now has two teeth, is crawling all over the place and loves to stand up. She is trying to pull her up on everything and we believe she will be walking in no time. Zoey turns 10 months old today.  Zoey still adores Taylor and follows her around - the best she can. Taylor is such a great big sister and plays with Zoey all the time.

This has been a crazy month for us.  Nathan started a new job at his old company today and I went part-time at my company. I will be working on an as needed basis. This will allow me to spend more time with the girls and allow us to go do things during the day. Lots of changes this month - but all good so far!
