Hey Grandpa Look what I can do!

My baby is getting so big! She rolled over at 10 weeks. At first I thought it was just a fluke but she has done it multiple times. Love this girl! Also dont mind our annoying voices in the back ground!  This is mainly for my dad, because he could not believe she could roll over so early! 











Christmas fun

My camera happened to die after the first picture I took on Christmas eve, so I only have a couple of pictures and some that my sister took! thank you Chels!

Christmas eve we started the day off by going to the Erickson's for a yummy breakfast and to exchange gifts. They got us a food dehydrator and let me just tell you it is awesome! Taylee got spoiled as well by her grandma and grandpa and her aunts and uncles! 



















Taylee is going to have so much fun playing with Bella and Mase when she gets a little bigger. She already loves her Grandma and Grandpa Erickson! (I am so sad I didn't get more pictures, this is the only picture I got before my camera died!)



After hanging out with the Ericksons we headed down to my parents. Growing up we always did the same thing every Christmas eve we would go to dinner and to a movie and then look for santa in the sky on the way home! I loved this! Its a little harder to carry on this tradition with young kids so this year Grandma and Grandpa Waddoups stayed home with Taylee and Halle and us Big kids and Avery went to Jump on it! 














Me and Aust were suppose to hit the back tramp at the same time, but I was chicken!




















Me and Jason! I may have peed my pants a little bit while jumping but it was still fun and funny to see all us old people bouncing around.

The boys played Dodge ball with a bunch of kids and also started a game of Horse 

































Dont you just love little brothers! Always picking on you! 

After Jump on it we went back to my parents house. Let me just add that I had to tell the "boys" that we needed to leave jump on it probably 5 times before they actually came. They kept saying 5 more minutes. They are a bunch of kids which makes things so fun!

We got back to my parents and ate dinner and had family time and exchanged gifts. We got spoiled once again, and Taylee got some fun things!




























Our little family.

Then it was time for the girls to put on there Christmas jammies. Taylee's lasted about 10 minutes until she pooped all over them.




















Cousin Avery and Taylee















Halle was to busy playing "mom" with her new toys so this is the best one we got of all three of them.

Christmas Day was spent relaxing at home, and remembering the birth of our saviour. 
















Santa came!















 





 










All the Christmas  festives wore Grandpa and Taylee out.

2 Weeks!

I cant believe our baby is 2 weeks old already! She had her 2 week appointment and did so good! I hated her sad cry when they did the heel prick. She has a hernia in her belly button but the Dr said he thinks that will heal up on its own and we will just watch it. She is 95% for her height (no surprise there!) 75% for her weight and 50% for her head. She is becoming more of a chunky baby and I love it! The Dr also recommended that we do tummy time, however when we do tummy time this is usually what happens...


She goes to sleep, and I mean a deep sleep!














(picture taken with my phone and I cant rotate it for some reason)

Some things about Taylee at 2 weeks
She hates being naked
She hates her baths
She Loves and I mean Loves music. Any time she is upset or fussy we can usually get her calmed down by turning on music or singing to her. Some of her favorites are I am a child of god, I love to see the temple, and any song by Scotty McCreery!
She loves her bouncer
She loves riding in the car
She loves bright lights
She will be so tired but does not want to miss anything so she will fight to stay awake
She loves to eat and is a very good eater
She loves cuddling with her Daddy
She has very powerful loud farts, that scare her. She will fling her arms and jump when she messes her diaper!




















We love her so much!

Taylee

We are so In love with this little girl! Taylee McCall Erickson was born on Friday November 18th.  My actual due date was November 26. Thursday I had a Dr appointment and was only dilated to a two and he said he couldn't schedule an induction yet because I was not progressed far enough and i still had a little over a week until I was due.  Thursday night I was up all night with the flu, I finally fell asleep around 3:00 am and woke up at 6:00 am to what I thought was my water breaking. I realized I was bleeding so I grabbed Jason and told him we needed to go to the Hospital that this wasn't right. We got to the Hospital around 6:30 and they were not to concerned with the bleeding but my Dr did an ultra sound and said every thing looked good and that they would monitor me for a couple hours to determine if they were going to keep me. An hour later the nurse came in and said that my I was contracting ( I had no idea) and that they decided to keep me!! I was very excited but at the same time I had just been up all night throwing up and looked awful and was so tired.  They started me on Pitocin and increased it every half hour, around noon I was ready for my epidural! After that I felt pretty good, and we just hung out and waited. Once I was dilated to a 10 My Dr came in and had me start to push. The could see the top of her head but once I would stop pushing she would float back up. They gave me about an hour rest and then I started to push again. Once they broke my water, they could tell that Taylee had, had a bowel movement so they called NICU in to the room and they got all set up and ready for when she was born. Once she was here the Dr Immediately handed her to NICU and they began to stick tubes down her and suck her lungs out, I just kept saying she is blue, and not crying! My Dr, kept informing me they didn't want her to do that yet because they wanted her lungs to be clear. They were able to clean her lungs out and she is perfect!!  She weighed 8lbs 1 ounce and was 201/2 inches long. We love her so much, and cant get enough of her. The nights have been rough and I am lucky enough if I get a shower in, but we are learning and I have come to except that having big bags under my eyes might be a new look for me! Jason is the best dad and has been so helpful. I love watching him with his little girl. There is nothing better then seeing My two loves snuggled together! I am so grateful and feel so blessed to have her!
