ok... potty training is hard. lately zach has been talking off his diaper.... and leaving "special surprises" for us in his room.
so we are potty training.

every hour we have to take him into the bathroom and sit there in tell he decides hes sick and tired of sitting there and squeezing. Unfortunatly... we haven't made much progress.

BUT WE ARE NOT GIVING UP!!!!

I'm kinda sad. tennis is almost over! now what am I going to do? it was way fun though.. I loved it! If only they had tennis in jr high....

*sigh*

I'm excited.
today at 5 im going over to this kids house to meet up with the other SBO'S to decorate our float for the parade! YES!!! I wonder if its an actual float or someones truck.. hm...
so ya.
I just thought I would share.

if you come to the parade I'll try to throw you lots of candy okay?

today i spent about an hour outside watching the digger on the other side of the fence dig a hole for the foundation of the new house thats coming in. It was hillarious. The look on zachs face.... it was like he was concentrating on something very hard.. like the look I have when I'm concentrating on not punching Eric in the face when he is singing... and sometimes he will take a break from his concentrating look and turn to me and say:
"Tay!!!! truck clean up!!!!!!"

I know I complain about him sometimes... but I LOVE THIS KID!!!!!

yesterday on fathers day we went to my grandmas house. That part of the day was fun. but, my dad had to go on a business trip on Sunday. He went to sacrament meeting with us and then he left.

it sucks!

i am SOOOOO EXCITED FOR YOUTH CONFRENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we are going to the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house, and we are also going to go to my awesome gmas and gpas to play mud volleyball and roast marshmallows in the fire pit. its going to be so awesome!

im officially sick of summer. ITS BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i need something to do! any ideas???

last night my awesome grandparents took me and Noah to see UP. I thought it would be really stupid... but it was actually ok! Its really really funny. Its about this old guy whos wife always wanted to travel to paradise falls. His wife died, and he is about to have to go to a retirement center, so he ties a zillion balloons on his house and decides to travel to South America. On the way he discovers that a "wilderness explorer" (A.K.A a boy scout) was on his porch when he set off. Anyway... you have to see it to find out the rest.

watching movies with zach is a interesting experience...... he'll laugh at the most random moments, and and will feel sympathy for the characters.

for instance... when spongebob starts crying zach will go

"oh no..... sad!!!!! he cry!!!!!"

its cute... and hillarious

The Hunger Games

if you guys have nothing to read you should read "The Hunger Games"

its really, really, really good.

its about this girl who is chosen to compete in these things called the Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is basically were they throw 2 kids from every district together and see who is the last one alive. Every year they put the kids in a different place... somtimes a desert or a wasteland so they dont just have to kill eathother... but survive the different weather and conditions. The lady who wrote it is also the one who wrote the Gregor series, so if you liked those you probably will like this.

yes... it sounds depressing, and it is a little.

but really good.

sorry I haven't been on lately... I've just started facebook so Im always on that!

Im so happy schools over. This summer we're not doing much, but we have tennis every Monday and Wednesday all through june and the first week of July. I had my first lesson today and loved it! Its not as easy as it seems, but its not hard enough that you can't do it at all. My teachers are pretty nice, and so are the girls.

but theres another Taylor.

*sigh*

shes really nice.... I like her... but almost everywere I go there is a Taylor.

it gets pretty annoying.

sixth grade has gone by soooo fast.

I am graduating from elementary on friday.

AHHH!!!

this means I start jr high.... I'll probably get lost on my first day and have to ask some 8th or 9th grader were to go....

oh crap.

I'm excited for it, but at the same time Im not.
