Welcoming Lauren Grace Taylor

We are settling into life with two daughters! We love it. I can't wait to see the sister connection develop further. Jocelyn loves her sister. She is a good helper for mom most of the time too. Lauren is a good baby. She is eating well, sleeping 4-5 hour stretches at night and is usually a very content and happy baby. She will be one month old on Friday! She is starting to track things and also turning to look when she hears a voice or noise. Hopefully I will be able to post more pictures soon but I will admit, I am spending alot of time cuddling with Lauren :)

Merry Christmas 2009

Merry Christmas from the Taylor Family!
We hope 2009 was a wonderful year for you! We have done some new things this year: home remodeling, starting a bible study group in our home, landscaping our yard, and Levi went antelope hunting for the first time. We recently got the antelope mount back from the taxidermist and will soon have a mule deer mount to add to the collection! We also became an aunt and uncle twice this year!
We are expecting Baby #2, in case you haven’t heard. Our due date is Feb 2nd but I started having close contractions at 33 weeks. Please keep us in your prayers that Baby Taylor would stay in as long as God needs him or her to! We will be spending Christmas at home this year and are thankful to have such wonderful and supportive families that are bringing Christmas to us!

Jocelyn is doing well. She is talking up a storm and absorbing EVERYTHING! I am amazed at the sentences she is creating! Jocelyn loves to ride horses with Levi and watch coyote hunting. At her 2 year check-up she called a barely recognizable cat an antelope (which was soon after Levi’s antelope hunt)! She will know her animals, well at least those that Daddy hunts! Things are a little tamer with Mommy she likes to read books, sing songs (especially The B-I-B-L-E and Away in a Manger), and play hide and go seek.

We hope you have a wonderful time celebrating Christ’s birth this Christmas! May God bless you and your family!
Love,
Levi, Julie, Jocelyn and Baby Taylor
