Fall Photos

So, even though fall only lasted about 2 hours here in Colorado, we were still able to get some good fall pictures of Taylor. Its virtually impossible to get him to look at the camera. I've tried bribing with candy, chocolate, even money, but nothing works, so enjoy the few we got after we took about 10,002. Also, the last pic is what our weather is doing currently.. yes, we have at least 3 inches of snow on the ground right now. Also, the cutest picture in the bunch, the one with Taylor peeking around the aspen, I'm working on editing out the smokers in the background, so please try and ignore that element.
Also, as many of you now know, Chris is currently in Tennessee working. We snapped the pic of him and Taylor before he left. We desperately miss him and can't wait to see him this weekend!!

We can't wait to see you guys in November! Hope you're feeling better! We miss you guys!; October 26, 2009 at 10:41 AM
Jen said...: Smoker or no, that is one cute pic. Let me know if you need some help editing it out; I've got connections when it comes to Photoshop help, thank you SUU Publications.

I'll echo Crystal in that I too cannot believe how big Taylor is. What happened to your little baby boy!?; October 29, 2009 at 3:05 PM
Jen said...: Happy Birthday to Taylor! BTW, I love that you picked up on the toddler talk idea...they say the funniest things; it would be a shame not to share them. Naughty muffins...love it!; November 2, 2009 at 8:05 AM
Lindseylou said...: Ooh, I love the fall picks! Taylor is getting so big! I'm showing Wyatt the pics so he knows who we're going to go see and he says.."well, he doesn't look too little". So I guess he's consenting to accompany me. Um, I'm a little disturbed as to why Taylor associates the oven with "naughty" behavior:-/; November 2, 2009 at 12:36 PM

Taylor Talk

Taylor: "That's one fine frog and I'm gonna catch him!"

Taylor: "Dad, can you make me invisible and tiny so that I can jump into the TV and live in Ponyville?"

Taylor: "Umm, I forgot what I was doing, hmm. OH WAIT! I unforgot, nevermind."

Taylor: "My name isn't Taylor anymore. Just call me Ninja, only Ninja."

Taylor: "Isabelle, I'm pretty sure you're ruining my life."

After hearing some loud thunder Tay runs upstairs and says:
"Hey guys! That was some thunder. The bad news is there's a tornado coming. The good news is everything is going to be a huge mess."

After being "asleep" for an hour, Tay comes downstairs and says:
"Mom, Dad, I kindof accidentally played with some toys in my bed and dropped one behind it. Could you come find it for me so I can put it away."

"Mom, who glued my bones together?"

Dad: "Hey Tay, I think I saw some dinosaur tracks outside this morning..."
Tay: "Next time we see the dinosaur I think we should shoot it and eat it."

"Hey Tay, who do you think ruined all your Lego Transformers?"
"Isabelle did, because I call her Isabelle the Destroyer."

"What do you want to get daddy for Christmas, Tay?"
"Lets get him a purse so he can keep all his stuff in it and some cords that he can plug some other stuff into."

"My shirt says Wild to be Born, Bells." Actually it says Born to be Wild. I thought it more entertaining not to correct him the whole day.

"Mommy, can we get another baby from the pet shop?"

"Daddy, I need a cell phone."
"Why do you need a cell phone, Tay?"
"So I can pretend to make a call."

I hear Taylor talking at the top of the stairs after I put him to bed about 15 minutes earlier, talking in his doorway.
"Tay, what are you doing? Get back into bed."
"Its o.k. mom, I'm just telling myself a story."

"Really Mom, really. We're picking up Transformers and you put a blue block in with them? Really, mom?" (All this said with an extremely patronizing look in his eye that I can only guess comes from his father.)

Taylor: "What are we doing today mommy?"
Mom: "We're going swimming with Jake and Jamie."
Taylor: "Oh, um, actually I meant to tell you, I already have some other plan, mom. Sorry."

Hearing Tay calling for me after bed I head up to his room where he promptly tells me his tummy hurts. I say, "How come it hurts, honey?" Tay's response is, "Because I hit myself in the tummy. Can you kiss it better?"

Trying to summarize one of the 15 transformer stories we have I say, "Megatron needed the map to get the spark." Taylor interrupts with, "Mommy, don't you mean Megatron needed the ancient code?"

#48) "Mommy, my bum hurts because I ate too many jelly beans." Totally random, right?

#47) "Don't say I'm your bestfriend mom."
"Why not, Tay?"
"Because I'm dangerous. I'm dangerous because I have a snake on my shirt."

#46) "Oh, mom, if you're going to Target can you pick me up a lightsaber. thanks."

#45) Taylor: "Daddy, can you put my Transformer's leg back on?"
Chris: "Sure. What happened to his leg, anyway?"
Taylor: "Megatron broke it off."

#44) "Isabelle, you are the prettiest girl in the whole world."

#43) "That was one gorgeous poop I made."

#42) As Taylor woke up from his nap and headed downstairs, Isabelle and myself were watching him. To this he said, "Don't look at me, I'm too special."

#41) "What are you drawing there, Tay?"
" A Masterpiece."

#40) "Mom, can I go live on the moon?"

#39) "Mom, can I have a warm dog and a hot dog for lunch?"

#38) I had asked Taylor to wait for me upstairs while I finished some things in the kitchen before nap. He waited for a bit and then yelled down the stairs, "HEY LADY! come read me a story!"

#37) "This aspargagas is bad. Send it back to the kitchen!"
