Jacob and Taliya

Now for a more interesting post. 

Look at that big smile Taliya has!

She likes hanging out with her dad because he's fun.

Jacob also likes hanging out with his little girl.

Oh, Taliya isn't in this picture. Woops. Oh, well, he's so handsome. 

He make looks scary in this picture, but he was making laugh so much. 

Hiding so I can't take a picture of him. 

I love them both so much. 

Yellow

I've been wanting to do this for a while: pick a color and find all things around the house that are that color. I went with yellow. I figure it's kind of a boring post, so I might not do it again, but it was fun looking for all the yellow.

Random Things

They finally finished the fence in our back yard. 

This was after Jacob's haircut. The before picture is later. Haha! PIctures never load on the way I want them to. 

Taliya playing with boxes in the kitchen. 

Just before dinner. 

I like when the sun shines. I like the shadows on the closet door. 

A sunrise

Before the haircut. 

Me looking cool. Haha! 

Taliya being cute.

Jacob being cool. 

I made pancake syrup because we didn't have any. 

Jacob started classes this week. Taliya took a nap while we were at school. 

Jacob also took a nap at school. He had a long break and was very tired. 

Taliya on the way home from school. 

Another sunrise. I was trying to get that shimmering line on top of the cloud. It was so cool in real life. 

Moving Around

In the last two weeks or so, Taliya has really started moving around. She pulls herself up pretty much any time she gets the chance, and she crawls like a machine. She is very noisy but hasn't said any real English words yet. We'll get there when we get there. She has an adorable smile and cute laugh. Someone from school said it was so cute how Taliya looks so much like both of us. 

She loves pulling up onto me. I think I'm sort of an obstacle course for her. : )

She is so cute!

There she goes. 

She walks when she holds onto my hands. 

Getting into mischief. 

She's a real special gift. However, just so you don't think we have a perfect baby, she has been a NIGHTMARE to put to bed lately. I'm trying to figure out what I need to do, but it's been really taxing.
