Goings on!


I feel like we have been really busy doing stuff the last few weeks, or maybe I have just not been able to organize my time enough to blog about it. But have been doing fun things.
A couple of weeks ago we went to downtown Portland on a Friday night and they had the "flicks on the bricks" where they showed "The Three Amigos" on a huge screen right in the middle of the square! It was so much fun and there were tons of people. Of course! It's a classic! We also went to the Washington County Fair, and Sammy was all dressed up in her pink cowboy hat and pink cowboy boots!

We also had these ginormous corn dogs that were delicious! And yes we did eat the whole thing!

Taylor has hit the 4 1/2 months old mark. Wow time is flying by! And she is still as huge as ever, and just as sweet and cuddly. Her favorite place to be is in the baby bjorn sling and she is as happy as can be! And that is probably the easiest place for her to fall asleep too. Last weekend we went to the Bite of Oregon downtown and Dave had her strapped on to his chest. He noticed there was a lady across the way that was secretly taking pictures of her, because she had fallen asleep and looked so cute. Dave caught her eye and she finally came over almost crying saying what a beautiful baby she was! It was a little crazy, and she may have been a little drunk too.


Lately with Sam I have been trying to find a Preschool which has been crazy! One, because she's old enough to be in Preschool, and two, it's hard to find a Preschool that isn't $800 a month! Ridiculous. Unfortunately we are in the bracket of making too much money to get any scholarships or financial assistance, but we don't make enough to afford these outrageous tuition costs! And I'm really not interested in a co-op right now because I have another kid and half the reason I want her in a preschool is to have a little time to get other things done and errands run while she gets to have fun.....sigh....I think I've found a good place though, but it is a little expensive. We'll see.
