THE FULLER FAMILY

Tyrel laughing at Taitlyn

2010-04-06T11:57:00.004-06:00

We got our new tramp set up last night. It sure makes our yard seem so small. We are hoping to put it in the ground soon. That way it'll be easier for the little ones to get on. Taitlyn was having a ball, and probably could have jumped all night if we'd let her. Tyrel was laughing really hard watching his big sis jump and do some tricks. It was really cute. I hope you can hear him laughing- too fun!

Sringtime!

We've sure been enjoying the warmer weather lately. It's been nice to get the kids out more.
When we bought our home, there was a homemade swing already set up. It's not the prettiest setup, but it's been perfect for Taits and Ty. They each have their own swing, and they love it and so do I!

About a month ago Nate bought a new wheel barrow. He found a good deal, and figured it would come in handy with our landscaping around the house. Lately we've been getting good use out of it- giving the kiddos rides in our backyard. Taitlyn thinks it's the best thing ever. Everytime we go outside she's begging you to take her for a spin. Yesterday we threw Ty in with her and he seemed to like it as well. Nothing like cheap entertainment. We'll probably keep this as a "backyard" activity, our neighbors may think we're crazy, if they don't already! : )

Thanks to Nate's brother Andrew, we got our first tree planted in our backyard. It looks great! I never knew how excited I'd be over a tree, but it's awesome!
Thanks Andrew!

Momma's little Helper

2010-03-20T20:23:00.004-06:00

Taitlyn likes to be my little helper in the kitchen. Just about anytime I'm making something, she's right there next to me.

A few weeks ago I found Taitlyn in the kitchen getting a head start on our "french toast" dinner. I had everything sitting out ready to go, but first I had to change Ty's bum. When I came back she had a chair pulled over next to the counter and was standing there stiring two eggs that she cracked. Yes, she cracked two eggs all by herself, and the best part- there were no shells in the bowl. I was quite surprised- so I had to snap a few pics of my Little Miss Betty Crocker. :]

Catching up

The Fuller family has been quite busy these last few months, and figured it was time to update our blog. So here's what we've been up to.

First of all Nate got a new job with Coleman Homes as an Assistant Superintendant. Nate has really enjoyed working in the home building industry, and says he learns something new each day. Sometimes he works long hours, but we are just thankful we have a good stable job! Thanks for your hard work sweetie!

Our little Taitlyn turned two in September. We can't beleive how fast those two years flew by. For her birthday we went to McDonalds for a happy meal and some good times in the playland. Our friends the Despains met us there with their son Silas who is two days younger than Taits. We also went to Grandma and Papas for cake and ice cream with cousins, aunts and uncles.

On November 6 we added a new addition to our family, Tyrel Nathan Fuller. Ty weighed 6lbs 2oz and 19 1/4 in length. He is a healthy baby boy and is already 7 weeks old. He's starting to coo and talk and has been smiling quite a bit these past few days. It just melts mommy's heart. :] I love it! We've really enjoyed having Ty in our family, he has such a sweet spirit.

One week after Ty was born we moved into our first home.(talk about everything happening at once.) We had been living in the Ogden's( Nate's sister) bunkhouse since we moved here in 2008. And thank heavens they were able to put up with us hooligans for so long. We were only supposed to be there for a month or two and ended up being there for over a year and a half. Thank you Ogden family!!! Taitlyn became very close to her cousins and would see them nearly everyday. She probably thought she was one of them. We feel so blessed to have such a great family who takes good care of us!

Here are a few of my favorites.

Taitlyn is getting so big! She is talking so much and learning new things everyday. She's such a joy to have and I feel so blessed to be her mommy.

We are 31 weeks along and have only 9 weeks to go until our little guy is here. We are trying to prepare Taitlyn as much as we can to get ready for little brother, But I'm afraid mom needs the most preparedness out of anyone!

The other day we decided we need an updated family picture before our little guy arrives. We had Papa and Grandma Fuller take some pictures in their back yard. Thanks guys! Taits wasn't cooperating the best- so it was quite interesting trying to have her sit still. But we managed to snap a few cute ones of her and daddy.

Little Trip

2009-06-28T18:27:00.001-06:00

Yesterday we went and visited Nate's grandparents in LaGrand, Oregon. We arrived there just in time to go to lunch at KFC (their favorite place). Then we went to the park and let Taitlyn run wild while we had a good visit. Taits loved their cat Arby, and couldn't get enough of him. We had a great day and hope to visit again soon.

Our Pregnany

2009-06-28T17:06:00.000-06:00

We are now 20.5 weeks along. We are at the halfway mark- but who's counting right?

Everything is going great with the pregnancy-can't complain one bit. We have our next doctors appointment in 1.5 weeks. We always ask Taitlyn "where is the baby?" and she'll pat my tummy and give me kisses. She's a sweet big sister already.

Our Exciting News!

2009-06-28T15:17:00.000-06:00

A few weeks ago we found out the sex of our baby...

And sure enough it's a BOY!!! We couldn't be happier.

Day at the Park

2009-04-10T21:37:00.000-06:00

The other day Taits and momma went to the park. We enjoyed some much needed fresh air and the warm weather. We had a little picnic ( PB&J, chips and grapes). It sure was tasty. Taitlyn didn't last too long sitting there eating when there were other kids running around and having fun. So she was off, and left mommy there to eat by herself. It made me kinda sad to realize how big our baby is getting. She's at a really fun age and keeps mommy and daddy on their toes- almost always. : )
Taits loved going down the slide, playing in the sand box and swinging. She was going down the slide like a little dare devil. She would either go down head first on her tummy or would walk until she fell on her bum then slid down on her back. She worried me a few times- little Miss Independent. She had fun playing in the sand box for her first time and liked to scoop the sand into a bucket. We had a great afternoon and look forward to warmer weather and more days at the park.

Having a blast

Christmas Day

2009-01-08T19:31:00.001-07:00

We had a great Christmas this year. Pretty low key, but wonderful. On Christmas Eve we went to the Wasden's(Nate's sister)home. They had a yummy fondue dinner, fun games and sang some Christmas carols. Then Christmas morning we hung out and played with Tait's new toys. That afternoon Mom and Dad Fuller had us over for a scrumptious dinner. Taitlyn loves her new toys. She got a Tonka Dump Truck and a baby with a stroller. Taitlyn likes to crawl up in her truck and have daddy take her for a spin. She carries her baby around, and pats her back- it's so cute. Taits has quite the personality. She continues to talk and sing all the time.(Daddy says she gets her talking from mama) One of her favorite songs is Old McDonald Had a Farm. She's great at saying E-I-E-I-O. It's such a blessing to have little Taitlyn in our lives.

Seeing Santa

2009-01-08T18:57:00.000-07:00

Taitlyn seen Santa for the first time this Christmas, and she did quite well. She didn't cry or anything. Papa Fuller was Santa Claus, so the familiar voice probaby helped- plus once she got a candy cane it was all good.

Taitlyn Dancing

2008-12-25T15:23:00.000-07:00

I know I haven't been doing very well at keeping our blog updated, but I'll try to do better. Taitlyn has been getting so big. She is talking alot, in a language all of her own, and she sure knows how to shake a leg. She loves to dance!

Some fun pictures

2008-10-01T20:54:00.001-06:00

Taitlyn is a pretty happy little gal. She loves to wear her daddy's hats, talk on her phone and play with her dad. She has 4 teeth- two on top and two on bottom. They change her look so much and make her even more cute.

She's up and at em'

2008-10-01T20:14:00.000-06:00

A few weeks ago we were at Ryan and Heidi's home for a family dinner. We got a clip of Taitlyn walking around. She'll find her way up by the couch, walls, chairs and just about anything to get up and go.

She's One!

2008-10-01T19:01:00.000-06:00

Taitlyn is now a big 1 year old. She wasn't the happiest birthday girl. That afternoon she had her yearly check up and she got 4 shots. So we couldn't blame her- poor thing. She did enjoy her cake though, she took it down. No problem! Taits got lots of fun toys and adorable clothes thanks to her grandparents and aunts and uncles.

Our little cutie!

2008-09-03T21:06:00.000-06:00

Taitlyn is 11 months old. She loves to talk and cruise around. She is a sweet girl and loves to give kisses.
