Another Tayle

Another story about Tay?  Seriously?
Yep.
And I don't post every story.  I do have other things to do... plus, they're not all appropriate.  Most of them embarrass or gross the crap out of Ryan.  He has specifically asked that I not share every.single.story with him.  (Filtering is not my strong suit.)
As I have said before, her morning hair is so suiting.
 
She enjoys destroying.  Anything.  She is not discriminatory when it comes to what she will tear up.  Her own head fell victim when she went to ruin her hairdo. You'd think this hurt! I understand completely, though... my mom has a massive clump of hair that I ripped out as a kid. She has it in my baby book.  Though, my destructiveness didn't extend past my own hair. 

 
She starts out so cute every morning.

 
Then, by lunch time, she looks like this - no matter the weather.  (This is one of her "in trouble" faces)

She likes to ask me really random questions or make really odd demands.  Just yesterday she started screaming at me in the car "This is the wrong store!  Noooooo!  This is not the right store!!!".  She also said "I need to go tee tee.  We need to go to the Cowboys.  I will tee tee on their numbers again.  I need to."(She peed on the 50 yard line when we were there).  Other times she will say things like "Maven needs to eat your boob."  Or, she will wake up from a dead sleep at 12:00 am, whining "I waaaant to go swimmmming!!"
So, I usually don't have a quick response.  It takes me a minute to register what she just said and it takes me a bit to come up with a response. 
Her response to my lack of response is "Mom!  Talk!".  So, a lot of times I just say "oh".  Then she says "Don't say 'oh'!".  Which makes me laugh more.  So she says "Don't laugh!".  I don't really know what to do after that.  I've already given it my all.  I need a bag of cookies to keep in my hand.  She won't talk if she has food.
She is also clumsy.  Or careless.  I should say careless because she can do some things with grace.  Her she is using her coordination:

But, most times she does some really uncoordinated things.  Yesterday, she was standing at the end of her bed.  Just standing there.  Suddenly, her feet shot backwards under her bed and she fell forward to the ground.  Random accidents like that are part of her life.  At dinner the other night (almost every night) her chair fell over with her in it.  We were in public.  A few night ago she knocked over the entire table.  We were in public, again.  It shot food and tea all over the floor.  She was completely unfazed.  Its become the norm for her. 
Its a good thing she is so friggin' cute and sweet.

Christian's second year (1-2)

Here are a few memories from just after August 10, 2007 through August 10, 2008.

Christian LOVED to dress up in my sports bras...
...and in my panties.
Reading on the potty (we potty trained him at 15 months since he wouldn't keep his clothes on)
 his means of escape:
My voice in this video is annoying.  I think I had too much coffee or something.  But, it is cute of Christian.
2nd Halloween - Gangsta CK
2nd Christmas (in San Antonio)

Always getting into something, but at least he is resourceful!  He brought the can over just to use as a stool:
First time at the rodeo.  (and yes, Ryan had a shaved head.  blah.)
The three amigos at the soccer game...  Beckham! 
"I love you!"
 
First Easter egg hunt (at the farm):
Playing around with Kelli at our farm:
Snake!
 Never has any pants on...
 Again, no pants.
On the ferry to Port Aransas:
More from Port A: He was crying because he couldn't have Ryan's beer.  You give the kid one taste and he wants the whole thing!  I hear CPS calling...


He peed in the sand and then took off!
Surfing
He learned to say "water" on our trip, but for some reason he always said "watey batey".

Lake Brownwood camping trip (he had an accident in his pants)
Christian's 2nd birthday (he learned how to swim a few months before his birthday)
Christian and Katy at his 2nd birthday party
