The Right Stuff

Mark had the pleasure of flying high today, taking a ride on a refueling tanker. It was a great experience.

Pulling up!

We start 'em early around here. Can you see her teeth? She is showing off her two bottoms ones!

Quick Update

It has been awhile since our last update, so here is just a quick update. We just returned from a night at Cold Stone Creamery in order to reward Olivia for keeping her pants dry each time she used the potty. She has a chart where she gets a sticker for it, and she filled up the chart today (25 spaces). You would think she would catch on to how simple of a reward system this is and pee all the time, but the connection hasn't been made yet. If she is encouraged to go, she usually says no.

As for Katelee, she was seen by an Early Developmental Intervention Services professional today. She is doing well. Her overall score put her at the 8 month old level. I think the professional was most impressed when Katelee started pounding out Chopsticks on the piano!

Mama shot this of Katelee while Dad and Olivia rode the roller coaster at the mall. Such a happy girl, even when she is teething-note the drool! She officially cut that first tooth on Monday. I think number two is not far behind.

Good Visit

Well, it has been a while since the last post. Mark has been gone for a couple of weeks, visiting Missouri and Texas. He was able to make his Mom's birthday wish come true by making it up to MO for her birthday. He was able to enjoy a good dinner with the Mitchells, eat lots of food at his Mom's house, and watch a Branson show (Noah, the musical).

Cats at LaDonna's

After a few days in Branson, Mark headed to San Antonio for some training. The best part was hooking up with some old friends. Then, it was back on the plane for the trip to Guam. Now, it's time to conquer the jet lag!

Old Friends

Picnik

Mark has been enjoying a new website called Picnik (http://www.picnik.com/). It is an photo editing website, and it has some great tools. So, there are some old pictures with new looks on our Photo page (you can get to them by clicking on the Taylor Photos link on the right). Enjoy!

In the Pictures

Olivia and Mark made the front page of the Sunday paper for participating in the Cancer Society's Relay for Life. Click HERE to go to the paper's website and picture. Or, just enjoy below!
