Swimming

Taylor went swimming for the first time today. He LOVED it. I plan on doing a mom & tot class with him at our rec-center in the fall. It was beautiful today outside. My friend, Kathy's pool is quiet with only 2 other people hanging out there today. It was nice to have the pool to ourselves.

Taylor's first mohawk! Adam will be so proud.

This is what happens now when Taylor doesn't get something he wants!
(In this case it was the camera I was taking his picture with...oh my)

Couple other notes:

I think we maybe moving Taylor's 1st birthday party to one of the weekends in August due to some scheduling conflicts and some things Ben and I want done before the party.

I am also giving up sugar! I had a friend, Adrienne, who has given up sugar for over 30 days now, go Ade! I went on a walk with her last week (long walk 4.5 miles...kicked my butt, literaly) and I felt so inspired. Plus I am really trying to get back in shape before we try to get pregnant again (end of the summer). I started swimming 3 times a week and lifting weights & doing the eliptical 2 times a week at 5am. I have been doing it for 3 weeks now...I really enjoy the early mornings now. By 7am when Taylor gets up I'm ready for the day with my workout done and getting ready in peace & quite while everyone else sleeps is so nice. God has given me the strength to keep it up because only He knows I couldn't keep it up all on my own! I am hoping by Taylor's party to be halfway to my goal.
