He goes to sleep for a nap and sleeps longer now that he don't have pass. He goes to sleep at night without pass (gets it during the night at some point). He has already been talking more and sleeping better. We are very proud of him!http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/61/no_more_pass.aspxWed, 25 Jun 2008 15:06:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/61/no_more_pass.aspxTaylen had his 15 month check up on Thursday, June 5 with Dr. Azam. His weight was 29.8 pounds and his height was 33 inches. He is in the 97 percentile for his height and 50 percentile for his weight. His next check up is August 28 when he will be 18 months old.http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/60/15_month_check_up.aspxTue, 10 Jun 2008 16:30:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/60/15_month_check_up.aspxClick here to watch a video of Taylen doing work on his daddy's computer.http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/59/doing_work.aspxTue, 03 Jun 2008 23:34:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/59/doing_work.aspxWe celebrated Taylen's first birthday on Saturday, February 22. It was a Go Diego Go party. We had hamburgers, hot dogs, cake and ice cream. Taylen got lots of toys. His favorite thing was to play in the mud in the backyard. Most of our family and friends came to celebrate with us. Thanksto all who came and thanks to all who helped out!Taylen had a good time. Taylen's real birthday is Wednesday, February 27. We haven't added any new journal posts since December and that is because we've just been too busy. Taylen is walking now and so he doesn't give us a break. Our business is busier than ever and there is no time left at the end of the day. Taylen has became much more independent. He now points to something when he wants it, which is very helpful to us.http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/58/birthday__party__boy.aspxMon, 25 Feb 2008 00:17:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/58/birthday__party__boy.aspxIt has been awhile since we've posted an update, so here goes! Taylen's last visit to Dr. Azam he checked out fine. He weighed 20 pounds and 2.6 ounces (50 percentile). He measured 29.5 inches long (95 percentile). Dr. Azam gave us the go ahead to give Taylen whole milk in between breakfast and lunch, for a sort of morning snack. He is staying busy and keeping us busy! He can crawl, I believe about 95 MPH and loves to hold on to his walking toys or the couch for a cruise. We went outside today, he played in the grass and we blew some bubbles...he likes to be outside. He plays what we call Where is Taylen (instead of peek-a-boo), he claps when he is happy (like when he wakes up in the morning, looks at the christmas tree), plays pat-a-cake, and the newest addition is putting his hand up in a stop signal when we tell him no or if he hears something he don't like. He still only has 4 teeth...his top gums are very swollen and are white now, I assume he will have more...one day soon. His v...http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/57/update.aspxTue, 11 Dec 2007 22:18:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/57/update.aspxTaylen crawls for real now. He gets around real good. He can crawl real fast and likes to pull up on the rocking chair. He likes to hide under the tables, too. He ate his first Cheerios today and liked them. He is a good chewer! I ordered him a big boy car seat complete with arm rests and a cup holder! I bet he likes it! We've decided for Halloween between a pirate (arg!) or a dinosaur (Uncle Collins' old costume) if it's cold weather. We've been super busy with work lately (12 active projects) so Granma Connie and Uncle Collins have been coming over to keep Taylen company while we get work done. Tomorrow Grandma P and Aunt Tevis will be coming over. Almost 8 months old...seems like just last week I was still pregnant - and Taylen is almost 1 year old. Wow! Where does time go?http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/56/crawling_for_real.aspxSun, 21 Oct 2007 23:29:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/56/crawling_for_real.aspxLately Taylen has been very busy. He began to creep yesterday. He can get around pretty good. He half crawls and half drags his back legs. He has got his fourth tooth (top). Last week he started being able to get in a sitting position from laying down. He notices the camera and loves to smile for it. He has still not decided what he wants to be for halloween!http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/55/crawling,_more_teeth_to_name_a_few.aspxThu, 18 Oct 2007 00:07:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/55/crawling,_more_teeth_to_name_a_few.aspxThe Kendrick family on Hathcock Road is sick! All of us. We are all congested, sore throat and achy. Poor Taylen, he is sick and teething. He hasn't been sleeping very good, so neither have we. For the second night in a row he has pooped in the bathtub...I don't know what it is, I'm beginning to think it must be something in the water! Grandma P came over on Tuesday for us to go to an appointment. Taylen played with her. He always likes to see new visitors...of course...more attention! The top tooth is making its way. All the way though the skin, his lower teeth are getting bigger. They are all so cute. I don't know what he wants to be for halloween, I've asked him, but he won't answer me. I guess he needs to think about it some more. I measured him yesterday, he came in at a whopping 30 inches. Weighed him today and he was exactly 20 pounds. He has almost trippled his birth weight!http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/54/sick_lil'_taylen.aspxThu, 04 Oct 2007 00:28:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/54/sick_lil'_taylen.aspxToday Grandma Connie and Uncle Collins came over to see Taylen. Grandma Connie was feeling for toothers in Taylens mouth and she found the one on the top that we noticed slit in gum on 9/24.http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/53/tooth_number_three_is_in.aspxFri, 28 Sep 2007 18:46:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/53/tooth_number_three_is_in.aspxTaylen had his first playdate with Khali today. She came over and played on the floor. The wanted each other's pacifiers...and Taylen cooed at her. We also learned that Taylen needs to learn how to share! He kept trying to take the toys out of Khali's little hands. He will learn. Khali sat up by herself for a few minutes and she is getting ready to make a tooth! She is almost six months. Tomorrow Thursday Taylen turns seven months. Taylen's new favorite activity is to climb. He likes to climb up my body and also on our big brown pillows.http://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/52/playdate.aspxWed, 26 Sep 2007 23:20:00 GMThttp://www.taylen.com/blog_archive/52/playdate.aspx
