3 months a 1/4 of a year old

 
My gorgeous baby girl is 3 month old.  I love seeing her grow and progress but honestly it makes me so sad how fast this time is going.  She is such an amazing addition and now I guess completion to our family.  Taylyn is just so happy.  She gives the biggest smiles and mimics our facial expressions.  We haven't gotten a laugh yet but she is so close.  Check out her cute bow I made :)
 
 This is her 'gosh mom that flash is very annoying' look.
 
 How can you not just smile looking at this sweet smile?
 
 
 
 The growing owl comparison.
 
 
 
 
 
Diaper:  Size 1 but they are too big so they make her leak daily grrrr
 
Clothes:  Onsies size newborn.  Clothes are size 0-3 months
 
Sleep:  She is sleeping about 4-6 hours at a time at night.  She eats and goes back for another 3 hours or so.  There was about a week before she turned 3 months that she only woke up once a night.  That was nice.  The last few nights she has woken more and its been rough.  Please go back to sleeping better. 
Accomplishments:  Smiling a lot, sleeping more through the night.  Puts herself to sleep.  She loves her two middle fingers.

Taylyn's Blessing

Taylyn Marilyn Hemphill was given a name and a blessing on August 25, 2013 by my Uncle Dean.  It was a beautiful day.  My mom and I spent the Saturday before make a delicious sweet pork to make CafĂ© Rio sweet pork burritos.  Oh man they were DELICIOUS.  There was some drama getting this set up.  I set it up with my Bishop and then three weeks later the week we were supposed to bless her my bishop calls and tells me it was Stake conference so we couldn't bless her.  Luckily it worked out to have her blessed in my mom's ward.  After the blessing we all came to our house.  We had a yummy lunch, some cake, and some wonderful conversation.

At the church just before being blessed.
 We didn't get any pics as a family at Weston's blessing and none of Cason's blessing at all so I wanted to make sure I got our first family picture taken.
 Aren't we a great looking bunch?

 I just love this picture because you can see Weston admiration of his sister.
 Poor Taylyn of course got blessing acne ugh.  Oh well still so beautiful.

People in her circle:  Dean Layton, Verle Layton, Lee Holbrook, Sam Waterfield, David Marchant, and two people from my mom's ward she is close with. 

Taylyn was so good during the blessing.  And there was a very special moment.  When my uncle handed Tay back to me she was looking kind of off to the side up in the sky.  There was nothing there but she kept looking there.  I had the strong feeling that my grandma Marilyn (her namesake) was there.
