New eating skills....

Taylor is very into doing everything ALL BY HERSELF! Here she is practicing her eating skills, she is getting pretty good!

On Saturdays there is an open gym in Petaluma that has a toddler hour where the kids can come and play in a fully padded room...it is the perfect place for Taylor! She loves to run around and climb and jump!

Camping

This weekend we went camping at Malakoff Diggins in the town of North BloomField with the Smiths, Harnetts and Stewarts. Camping with 5 kids... all toddlers was...ummmmm what should I say...interesting. The kids were actually all troopers and loved being outdoors all day. Nap time in tents was interesting but hey...it's good for them, right? We had fun hiking, fishing, swimming, riding bikes and of course eating smores....as you can see below Taylor loves the smores!

The town was an old mining town so they had some mining games and an ice cream social for the kids, they had a blast.

The fun begins...

Taylor is in love with Brady.....look at that smile!

Beckett was resting up, getting ready for the long

weekend.
