Taylor Turns 14

Taylor turned 14 today! She's growing up, maturing, just really becoming a beautiful young lady. We went shopping Saturday night (after Saturday School, since they are still making up snow days) and to eat at Chili's.
Me and Taylor this afternoon after church. (check it out...the Wynne shirt again)

Ashley Duncan made the cake, Taylor and Philip share the family birthday party since, the birthdays are just a week apart. Taylor is 14 and Philip is really 13. I did not pay attention today when I agreed to their ages. Philip went around telling everyone that he would be needing 2 years of birthday money, seeing how we skipped 13 and 14. Ha!

Lately, I've been paying attention to how grown up the girls are. How responsible they are becoming. My niece, Amanda, is having a baby SOON. Babies require responsible people to take care of them, this got me to thinking about just how responsible the girls really are. Neither can remember to brush their teeth, lunch money, when they need to be some where and I think they might not use soap in the shower, I'm not checking. Responsible would NOT be Mary Margaret and Taylor...my exhibit...
Meet our cat Pepper

This cat crouches every day by the door when we get home and shoots in the door with lighting speed, just to wait to be fed.

I paid attention today. The cat cries like a baby. Seriously. It is extremely annoying. They both listened to that cat cry for about 15 minutes. I'm not joking, it sounds like a REAL BABY. They totally ignored it. A few weeks ago the cat had a super-dee-duper snot nose. I told them to figure out how to clean her up, i.e. get a wet rag and wipe its face. They both looked at the cat and made puking noises and ran.

I'm thinking a real baby might starve in their care and have a permanent snot crusted face. Just sayin.
