Happy birthday, Nanny Yoshino!

In honor of Nanny's "something" birthday, the Slades made the weekend trip to Charlotte. One of the main attractions was the boys showing off their walking, running, laughing and wild behavior at Nanny's retirement community's dining hall. (Nanny has her own living independent apartment and a meal plan, so we were all invited!) Uncle Jim (mom's bro), Nannny, Boo, Gan, Taylor, Ben and Turner as I take the photo. Notice how the boys are sitting so still. Fast forward 15 minutes and they are running through the halls, grabbing onto resident's walkers and wheelchairs, while trying to escape up the elevator or out the front door. Hilarious!

Back at Nanny's place....

Again...Gotta love the "infamous" stares. Turner stares at the camera and Taylor stares" who the heck are you?" at Uncle Jim. Uncle Jim came in from Wisconsin. We missed you, Aunt Micki. Hopefully you are still tanning yourself in sunny, warm Florida!

Taylor driving his new vehicle, which was found at Aunt Carrie's house!

You know, Turn! Of course, he would find something to carry around.

Mommy with Turner, Savannah and "staring" Taylor in the playroom at Carrie's house!

Another quick photo opportuinity after a fabulous take out Chinese dinner. Thanks Boo and Gan. John 5--we loved your homemade cupcakes!!! Happy birthday, Nanny!!!

Classic shot at 12 months: Taylor is into patting things. Yesterday, he was patting daddy on his shoulder. In this photo, he was patting Savannah on the head. Repeatedly.

Mommy: " No touch Savannah."

Taylor: smiles, then "whack" on the head

Savannah: thinking and looking puzzled..... "huh"

Mommy and Aunt Caroline: Giggling... " No touch Savannah"

Taylor: smiles, then "whack"

* NICE. At one years old, my boys are ignoring me. Thank goodness I have boys! If Taylor would have been a boy, there already would have been a fight between us.

What a grand way to end the weekend... Sitting on the leather couch in our pajamas with Gan watching cartoons. Milk anyone?
