On Saturday John took us to the Beaverton Farmer's Market, we had such a great time! First we picked up some spicy mustard, spinich onion bread, & some creamy cheese then had a little picnic in the park. We kept running into Chelsea Clinton there too, every corner we turned, there she was with her media and public following - ugh. Later we let Taylor run around in the fountain for a nice break from the heat, we didn't plan on it though so she went in her clothes, she loved it so much that when we got home we tried to recreate it on the driveway. :)

If you know me at all, you know that I'm always in search of a good deal. My favorite places to shop are second hand stores, garage sales, and the $1 Tree! :) hehe. I found this adorable Sweet Pea shirt at the $1 Tree, and the wings I picked up at a Garage Sale for 25 cents. Can't beat that! Taylor already loves to dress up so I threw these on her after her nap (hence the lack of pants and full diaper) she loved it. ;)

Taylor and her many smiles, she makes me laugh. :)

Last week I brought Taylor to feed the ducks, it was fun to see her get excited about it, she was even laughing as they gobbled up our bread, so cute.

This week, baby is about the size of a kidney bean. She is moving and is developing her and brain rapidly. I'm also likely to have some crazy mood swings this week so steer clear. ;)

Purple Cow

My parents are building a home out in Banks, OR and on their way home they noticed a vineyard was opened for wine tasting named "Purple Cow", since their last name (my maiden name) is Purple, how could they resist. As they were purchasing a bottle of wine, the owner noticed the name on the credit card and insisted on a photo for her Purple Cow Blog. Check it out - how fun. :)

Over the weekend John's Grandparents came to visit from California with John's Parents. We had a great time catching up, but most of all, I think the Grandparents loved seeing Taylor. These are Taylor's Great Grandpatents and so lively and fun! They both have a thick Polish/Russian accent and so many stories to tell about their childhood during the war, we think they should write a book. They are so much fun. :) On Saturday night they took us out to dinner at Gustav's for our birthday dinner, we had a great time!

Name Game

So, none of these names are set in stone yet, but they are just our top 4 for each gender. If you have any other ideas, leave a comment (Grandparents) ;) The middle names are negotiable too. I can't believe we are having another baby! He is the size of a blueberry this week, and her tiny heart is now beating!

Daddy Time

The other day Daddy & Taylor were relaxing together and it was so cute that she was so cozy and content with him in the chair. John was also teaching her the G Major 7 Chord. ;)
