Pics



Well, i got my camera out today and i used it quite a bit actually. The first few pics are of the girls' rooms!! we just painted and added some pics and stuff. i still need to find curtains but the girls are THRILLED with their rooms. Maddie's room is of course green...this has long been her favorite color so she is so happy to sleep in her green room:) Taylor's room is pink. i was a little scared at first but it looks great.








If you look closely...you will see a wider gap than usual!! yup, Taylor lost another tooth on the bottom middle today... she is happy!!























We also had a blizzard yesterday....just a little spring storm that rolled threw Colorado. I was thankful to have the snow blower for this blizzard. the girls were excited to go play for a little while but it didn't last long b/c it was so cold. But later today it warmed up just nice and the snow is already starting to melt!!

Spring Break of .....sickness :(

Well, my dreams of not having a schedule and being all free spirited and doing some "fun" things with the kiddos hasn't happened so much!!! My mom came over this weekend and we did get both of the girls rooms painted....they look sooooo cute...i will take pics soon!!

Then on Sunday Taylor started to come down with a pretty deep sounding cough. Monday was worse and she took a three hour nap and i was worn out trying to keep Maddie from bothering her. Tuesday her nose started draining....so that was just gross. Wednesday i thought we were finally on the upswing and had one more day at home to make sure Maddie was fine. Then today.....we have a blizzard outside so housebound again. So, i have been out of this house for a grand total of ready....2 and a half hours since Sunday!!! i am a little stir crazy....Taylor has been up at nite cause she can't sleep without coughing so i am happy to be over this cold. Not the spring break i had pictured....but it can only get better right:) We are having a fun guest coming from out of town this weekend.....the girls are beyond thrilled to see their JAKE!! Jake is a young YFC Staff from IL who loves to come to the Talley's for a little family time and food. The girls love it too and they can't wait. So i will take some pics this weekend!!

Also, this week don and i heard that a dear friend Bob Adams went to be with Jesus. Our thoughts and prayers are with Ramona and the rest of the family. Bob and Ramona are from Don's home church in Escondido, CA and have known don since Don's high school years. They are great friends and we will miss Bob very much.

Pics will come later as i haven't taken any that you would enjoy....you know snot and everything:) Here's to a better spring break next year!!!

Tooth Fairy is coming.....

Well......it FINALLY came out today!!!!! This tooth has been loose for over a month but Taylor has been so afraid of the blood and the hurt of it coming out that she has NOT wiggled or played with it at all!! one of the boys from school told her that it hurts and LOTS of blood comes out.....gotta love those 5 and 6 yr old boys huh:) so, she has really been worried about this. But this afternoon we told her to go in the bathroom and just keep wiggling it and finally we heard "MOMMY, its out and it didn't even hurt!!" everyone was so excited and Madison wanted to touch it???...ummmm Madison is just like that i guess. Taylor was so excited and running around and the tooth fairy was coming tonite...that is all our kids needed to know!!:) she looks so adorable and cute. The tooth right next to it is loose already so pretty soon the gap will be bigger. The case Taylor is holding is the same case that Corey, Amber and I used when we were kids and lost our tooth. I mentioned to my mom that i need a case like that and she was actually able to find it!!! neither of us remembered that there was a cat on the front of the case....but there is much to the delight of my girls:) So, the tooth is under the pillow....now lets hope the tooth fairy is sneaky enough to get it out:) This may gross some people out i guess....but look how tiny it is!!!



Excited for bedtime.....alright!!! this is great!!


I told her that the tooth fairy can't come till she is asleep....so she said "ok"....i think she is faking:)
