Ashlyn woke up feisty as ever this morning (I blame it on the fact that she is teething). An example of her craziness was when she climbed up the bar stools and fell hitting her head on the hardwood and then was so mad she had to go and bite the chair and throw a 15 minute tantrum. Obviously it was the chair's fault. I didn't know what to do with her and apparently Taylor could tell that I was a bit overwhelmed. Ashlyn had a bag of goldfish crackers and of course dumped it out all over the floor which is one of the worst snacks to have spill because little orange crumbs go everywhere! Instead of saying anything, I just walked out of the room and decided I would clean it up after we came back from a birthday party. It was only 10:30 in the morning and my patience and mental energy was fading fast. To my surprise and amazement, Taylor got out our little vacuum and cleaned up Ashlyn's mess. She has never done that before and she made sure to get every last little orange crumb. Her small act of sweetness gave me the little boost of patience and energy I needed to continue on with our day. She is such a good big sister and is turning into a great helper!

What a sweet girl Taylor is! And you're right, if we were to get our 2 sets of twins together, I'm fairly certain chaos would reign! But it would probably be lots of fun!! :)
That brought a little tear to my eye.
That is so sweet! I love her!
That is so cute and thoughtful of her, definitely something to always remember!
Taylor Marie you are the greatest! Heavenly Father knew you would be the bestest big sister ever!
we sure love you guys- can't believe your kids are getting so big. Just the other day makayla was talking about the snow cones we ate at Taylors birthday party- Im glad she has fun memories like that. Give Taylor a love from us!
What a little sweetie she is! But I have no doubt that she is how she is because she has such wonderful parents who have taught her well!
You went through so much before you came to our house. I feel so sad. You are wonder mom. When the twins are old enough to go to school you won't know what to do because you actually will have some time to yourself. Taylor is a sweetie. I just love how you can get her excited about things. I can't do that to Tyler.
that is the cutest thing ever!
you're right, we should totally get together soon. i wasn't sure if you guys lived close. call me! (909) 797-8113
