Isn't She Lovely??

On Thursday, we took Taylor to Portrait Innovations to have her one-year-old/belated Christmas pictures. We were really impressed with our photographer. She did a great job at getting Taylor to smile and look at the camera. We are extremely happy with the way the pictures turned out. When I asked Jared if we could go have pictures made there, I told him that there was a $9.99 package which sounds really good, but once we had all the pictures made, it was really hard to pick just one pose, so we ended up spending a lot more than we had planned!

The above pictures are the ones that we ordered, and we have TONS, so if you want one, let me know! The first picture was the one that we got the packaged deal with. It was our favorite because it was just such a typical and precious expression that she has.

Christmas Day

On Christmas morning, I got up and fed Taylor a bottle. I put her down for a minute, and the first thing that she did was crawl over to my stocking, pull out my package of Twix, and started chewing on it! She was definitely looking forward to good Christmas food (and candy!) and ripping open the wrapping paper. She enjoyed opening all of mommy and daddy's presents, playing in the paper, and crawling on boxes. Jared gave her one of his Red Vines, and she had it ALL over her face! We really enjoyed just being able to relax and spend the morning together as a family. We watched the Walt Disney Christmas parade, Mr. Kreuger's Christmas, and Joy to the World, and we even had some wrestling matches. (Taylor really likes to crawl on top of mommy and daddy. She has even started this thing where if we are lying on the floor she will sit on our head and bounce up and down. She thinks it is quite hilarious!) Later that afternoon, we went over to my mom's house, and we ate dinner with her and my brother's family. We opened more presents and stockings, and Taylor learned that Grandma is way better than Santa! In the far right picture in the second row of the collage, you can see the present that we gave to my mom. Taylor tried to unwrap it several times and was quite successful. I just taped pieces back to it. I figured it gave it character.

We gave Rylan a Diego t-shirt, and it was a hit! He loved it!

Thanks, Mom, Neal, and Sarah for everything! (and thank you Sarah for taking pictures!)

'Twas the Night Before Christmas...

For the last several years, on Christmas Eve, my family has gone over to the Bastins' house for dinner and to exchange presents. The Bastins are very close friends of ours. My mom used to work with Mrs. Bastin (and she was one of my high school teachers), and Mrs. Bastin and her whole family have really been there for my mom in every way possible. So, on Christmas Eve, we went over to their house, ate some delicious lasagne, drank some apple cider, and opened presents.

Taylor & Catherine Bastin

Taylor & Bryson (Rylan wanted to hold her, too, but she got tired of being held, and he was very unhappy that he didn't get to hold her)

Jared got an Auburn t-shirt, and I got a blue Swarovski crystal bracelet that they actually got in Austria. Taylor's present (it was actually kind of for me, too) was a Willow Tree mother & daughter memory box. It is very beautiful, and I especially love what it says on the inside of it.

When I was little, our family would go to my mom's parents' house in Birmingham for Christmas. We always spent the night on Christmas Eve, and I can even remember waking up in the middle of the night and sneaking around to see if Santa had come yet. On Christmas Eve, before we went to bed, my granddad would always read "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" to my brother and me. So, to continue the old Christmas tradition, I had Jared go to the bookstore and buy the book so we could read it on Christmas Eve night.

Of course, we also read the story of the birth of Jesus out of the Bible to remember the true meaning of Christmas! :-)

"Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!"

Here Comes Santa Claus...

I had heard that if you went during the week that you wouldn't have to wait in a long line to have your picture taken with Santa. So, one day, I had to go into town to run some errands, and I thought that if Taylor was in a good mood that we would go by the mall to see if she could have her picture taken. We got our shopping done and went to the mall, and sure enough, there was no line! Woo hoo! Well, then I started to look at the prices of the pictures, and I thought it was just crazy. I stood there and debated for a few minutes and then just turned around and walked back out to the car. Then, I kept looking at Taylor and thinking, "but she looks so cute, and I would love to have a good picture of her with Santa..." so I called Jared and asked what he thought. I figured he would say, "That's too much, and she already had her picture taken with Santa at the church for free," but instead, he said, "Well, if she's in a good mood and you think she'll take a good picture, then I don't care." So, that left the door open, and I'm weak, so we went back inside to have the pictures taken. She WAS in a good mood, but as soon as I put her in Santa's lap, she started crying. We got her to stop crying, but as you can see from the picture, she still wasn't thrilled. She's been snotty lately, so I wiped her nose before giving her to Santa, but of course, as soon as she started crying, it started streaming out of her nose again. So, you can see snot coming out of her nose and even a little tear coming out of the left eye if you look closely. It's not a fabulous picture because she's not smiling, and she's not even looking at the camera, so afterwards, I started feeling guilty for paying so much to have the picture taken. (The cheapest thing you could get was like a 3x5 and two keychain pictures for $15 or $16. What I ended up getting was two 3x5's for almost $20 after taxes. I know $20 isn't a whole lot of money- well, it is if you're poor- but I just thought that was ridiculous for just two little pictures, so I don't know if we'll be doing it next year or not).


On Saturday, we celebrated Christmas with my dad's family at my cousin Sheree's house in Birmingham. Sheree was always one of my favorite cousins growing up. She's probably around 10 years older than me, and I always loved doing things with her. I can remember sitting on her waterbed when I was really young, and she was showing me how to cross stitch. Whenever my parents built our new house (when I was in the 4th grade), I even had to get a new bed just like Sheree's- only mine wasn't a waterbed. Well, now, Sheree is married to a very wealthy man (he owns several car dealerships), and they live in an absolutely beautiful, gigantic house in Birmingham, so most of our family functions are held there. (My dad had 1 brother and 6 sisters, so it's a very large group when everyone is together---- very much like the Mayfields). Most of my dad's family had either not seen Taylor before or they hadn't seen her since she was just born, so it was good to get to show her off ;-) After we ate lunch, the men played poker (Jared just watched), and the women played dirty santa with Christmas ornaments that we all brought. Dirty Santa is always a fun game, but after it was all over, Sheree said, "Okay. Now draw another number because Tom and I bought presents, and we're going to play again. The presents range in price from $50-$700." Oh my gosh! I was like are you serious?!! We've played Dirty Santa for several years but never like this! There were close to 20 women playing, and the biggest prizes included a flat screen TV, an iPhone (the winner of the men's poker game also won an iPhone), two digital cameras, a video camera, a Blu Ray DVD player, a photo printer, a laptop computer, and a Coach purse. I couldn't believe it! I mean, can you imagine what it must be like to be able to do that? I wouldn't mind having that kind of money just so I can buy gifts for other people like that! My dad's family grew up in Cullman, just good ol' country folk, so as you can imagine, we were all just crazy excited over this! The TV, iPhone, and laptop were all frozen by the time that it was my turn, so I ended up with one of the digital cameras (oh darn... haha!). It's the same brand as the one that I have now, but WAY better!





It is 7.2 megapixels versus my 3.2, and it even has specific settings for taking pictures of snow, taking pictures at the beach, etc. Oh and it's PINK.. haha I haven't gotten to test it out yet because I have to buy a memory card for it, but I can't wait to try it!

While we were playing Dirty Santa, Taylor played in the floor. At one point, I found her with styrofoam in her mouth and removed it, but I think she must have ingested some before I got to her because I discovered it in her diaper later! (If you know what I mean!)

Sheree also gave Taylor some cute little boots! Sheree had some brown ones like them, and I think she said she found these at Target and bought like 12 pairs of them to give to kids! They are a size 5, and Taylor wears a size 3 right now (well, she does when we can get her to keep shoes on her feet!), so maybe she'll be able to wear them by next year, but they are so precious! I love Sheree! I think it is so awesome that she has stayed the sweet, down-to-earth, generous person that she has always been!























Here is a picture of Taylor in her pretty dress that we bought her for Christmas. We're planning on getting pictures of her at Portrait Innovations, but by the time I called, the earliest appointment they had available was the 27th. I don't know if they'll still be doing Christmas pictures by then, but I will probably get some pictures of her in this dress because I just love it! We've had such a hard time finding bows and stuff that will stay in her hair, but we found a little red glitter headband at Gymboree at Bridge Street, and it's precious as long as she'll keep it on her head!

Birthday videos

My mom got me an HD digital video recorder for Christmas, and I talked her into giving it to me early so that I could record Taylor's birthday. I had a hard time getting the videos to upload when I posted on Taylor's birthday earlier. I guess some of the video files were too large, so I'm posting some of the smaller ones. Thanks for the Christmas present, Mom! It will definitely come in handy!

Taylor got mad after getting the cake and icing all over herself, so we stripped her down and gave her a bath. She was a little cranky afterwards, but once she was dried off and had clean clothes on, she was happy and ready to open presents!

The Best Two Years

Yesterday was mine and Jared's 2 year wedding anniversary. My mom babysat Taylor, and after Jared got off work, we went out to eat at Luciano's, an Italian restaurant on Airport Rd that neither of us had ever been to. It was a very nice, quiet atmosphere with dimmed lighting and candlelight. Our waiter was great, the bread was great, and the fried ravoli appetizer was delicious! We were both pretty much full before we even got our main entrees.

After dinner, we went to the new Bridge Street town centre. I had never been there before, so we walked around and explored everything. We went inside of the new movie theatre which looked amazing, saw the Christmas tree, and looked around to see what all stores were there. We were hoping to rent some paddle boats, but they close those down at sunset (which is early this time of year). The gondola rides were all booked up for private tours so no public tours were available. I was tempted to ride the carousel, but since we didn't have any cash on us, I decided that we could just come back another day and bring Taylor.

We passed a jewelry store while we were walking around, and Jared said, "Do you want to go look to see if they have a wedding band that you like?" When we bought the wedding band that I have now, all I wanted was a plain band, so we pretty much bought the cheapest one because they all looked the same anyways, and we figured we might as well save some money. It is white gold, but it no longer looks like white gold, and it is very obvious next to my platinum engagement ring. So, I've been wanting to get a new band. So, we looked at bands at the jewelry store and actually found something like what I've been wanting, so I told Jared to make a mental note of it.

After we looked around at everything, we went and sat on a bench, and Jared said, "Well, are you ready for your presents?" Presents?! I hadn't even thought about presents! He had his hands in his jacket pocket, and he said, "Pick a hand." So, I picked one, and he pulled out a small box. Well, actually, he pulled out a candy wrapper first, and then, he pulled out the box ;-) I opened it, and it was a pair of really pretty earrings with three diamonds in a vertical row. They are really nice because they can be worn with something dressy or casual.

After I opened that box, Jared pulled out another small box. This one was a ring box, so I was very surprised. I opened it, and even more to my surprise, it was a diamond wedding band! It was from a different store than where we were looking, but it was beautiful and just like I wanted!! I have to get it sized, so it'll be a while before I can wear it, but I am so excited!! I don't know how he managed all of this since we're poor, but I didn't mind being spoiled! ;-)

After that, he said he had dessert in the car, so we walk to the car, and I see a box of chocolates in the passenger seat. I open the passenger door, focused on the chocolates, and from the backseat on the driver's side, Jared pulls out a cookie cake!!!! My favorite!! I didn't think this night could get any better! I opened it up, and it said, "The Best Two Years." (Have you seen the movie about missionaries titled 'The Best Two Years?') It was so cute, and we both got a good laugh about his creativeness. It was an amazing night, and I am so very blessed to have such a wonderful husband! He is so good to me each and every day, and I love him so much!

Happy 1st Birthday, Taylor!

Tuesday, the 18th, was Taylor's 1st birthday. On Sunday, Jared and I invited our families over to eat cake and ice cream to celebrate. We hung up at least one picture from every month of Taylor's first year so everyone could see the transformation that she has made. She started off as a very skinny baby with lots of hair. Then, she slowly got chunkier and started to have bald spots which we really just have to laugh at now. Now, she is back to a little skinny thing with tons of hair, and she's just as beautiful as ever!

I made Taylor her own individual cake so she could just dive in and get as messy as she wanted. I was anxious to see what her reaction would be. She usually just loves to stick her hands in her food even if it does drive her mommy crazy ;-) She had a huge smile on her face as we started off singing 'Happy Birthday.' Then, after we blew out the candle, I put the cake within her reach, and she very gently reached out picked off some icing and stuck it in her mouth. I guess she had to test it out first before she really got into it. She started to get a little braver, and then I helped her out by shoving her hand all the way in so she was getting into the cake, too, and not just the icing. She ate a little bit and then just started rubbing it all over her hands, as if she were putting on lotion, and just staring at her hands. Shortly after that, she decided that she had had enough and quickly let us know it!


Jared and I rinsed Taylor off (she even had cake in her toes!), got her into some clean clothes, and then started opening presents! She absolutely loved ripping open the wrapping paper which I expected. Her cousin Noah gave her some pretty hair bows (he even tested them out for her) and picked out the ribbon and wrapping paper himself ;-) My mom gave her a couple of toys that play music and make lots of noise, and she absolutely LOVES them! Neal, Sarah, Bryson, and Rylan gave her her first baby doll, and she likes to chew on her head.. haha Jared and I gave her a little toy laptop computer because she always sees me working on the computer. Thanks everyone! Taylor loved all of her presents and having everyone there! and thank you, Cari, for taking these pictures!

Misty was unable to come on Sunday, so Jared, Taylor, and I went out to eat with her and the girls that she nannies at Pizza Hut on Tuesday. Taylor had her first taste of some yummy pizza, and Misty brought some little mini cupcakes.

I can't believe my baby is already a year old!!

Christmas Party

We had a Christmas party at church on Saturday. We ate lots of good food and enjoyed getting to watch all of the little ones play together. Taylor and Noah are finally getting to the age where they can interact more with each other, and it's so cute! Plus, our friends Kami and Robbie were there, and Jude and Ashley's little girl, Lisi, is about the same age, so there were little babies crawling around everywhere!

(Noah found him a piece of string or something on the floor that he found very entertaining, and Taylor was wanting to get in on the action)

All of the kids got up and sang The Nativity Song and acted out the shepherds, wise men, angels, etc. One verse of the song says, "This is the new star shining so bright, lighting the world on that first Christmas night...." When we rehearsed, one of the little girls just held up a picture of a star for that part, but her mom ended up making her a full body, bright yellow star costume where just her face was peaking out. It was hilarious! I wish I had a picture of it. Jared and I were Joseph and Mary, and we used a baby doll for baby Jesus.

(One of the girls let Taylor play with her angel halo)

After all that, Santa showed up!! I was curious to see how Taylor would react. We sat her in his lap, and she just sat there and looked at him. She didn't cry. She didn't smile. She didn't have much of a reaction at all. She did enjoy the candy cane that he gave her though. Noah, on the other hand, quickly showed his dislike for Santa. Apparently he had the same reaction with Santa at Parkway Place mall.

You should've listened to Ashley...

So, a few months ago, I read on my friend Ashley (Aynes)'s blog that she had gotten an ulcer on her eye. I had never even heard of getting an ulcer on your eye before then, but it sounded pretty rough. Well, last week, Jared found out exactly how rough it is.

Jared has slept in his contacts for several years and hasn't even owned a pair of glasses for a long time. Last Tuesday, he called me while he was on his way home from work and told me that he needed me to call the eye doctor and get him an appointment, but their office was already closed for the day. When he got home, he could barely keep his eyes open and had to sit in the room with the lights off. He said he had slept in his contacts the night before, got up that morning to get ready for work, took out his contacts for a little bit, and then put them back in before leaving for work. On the way to work, the sun really started irritating his left eye. It got better throughout the day, but then he had the same problem on the way home. He was so miserable by the time he got home that he had me call the after hours emergency number for our eye doctor. He called me back and had me look at Jared's eye to see if there was anything visible to the naked eye on his eye. I didn't see anything, so he said to use some artificial tear drops, a cold rag, and take some Tylenol or Advil and then come see him first thing in the morning.

So, I drove Jared to the eye doctor the next morning, and sure enough, he had an ulcer on his eye! The ulcer is formed from bacteria eating at the cornea (yum!). He was given a prescription for some antibiotic eye drops (that were dang expensive for a tiny bottle!) and then he just laid on the couch all day with his eyes closed. He said it felt like there was just a grain of sand stuck in his eye, and it hurt every time he blinked. The eye doctor said to come back on Friday unless things got worse but that he thought things would be a lot better by Friday. The next morning, unfortunately, Jared's eye was not better. It had gotten worse, and his vision was very hazy, so we headed back to the eye doctor. He was told that the inflammation had gotten really bad and that he could give him some steroids to help the inflammation, but it would slow down the healing process for the ulcer which was the main priority. So, he just gave him another prescription for some antibiotic ointment to put on his eye overnight. By Friday, it was doing a little better, so he went back to the doctor and got the steroid prescription. Needless to say, we had to get Jared some glasses (another expensive thing!!) because he's not supposed to wear his contacts until a week after it has completely healed.

Jared said this was worse than any injury or broken bone he has ever had and that he wouldn't wish it on his worst enemy. So... if you wear contacts, make sure to take them out every night and give your eyes a break as often as you can!

Anyway, he is doing much better now, and I told him that I'm actually starting to dig his glasses.. haha

Christmas Decorations

With much persuasion, I convinced Jared to get the Christmas decorations out of the attic the day after Thanksgiving. Actually, I just pouted until he did it. ;-) He didn't want to put the tree up because he wasn't looking forward to having to constantly pull Taylor away from it. We put it in the corner and ended up blocking it between the couch and the chair and ottoman. Taylor has definitely tried to squeeze her way through. She even discovered that there was enough room to fit behind the chair, so we had to move it back some. So far, we have managed to keep her away from the tree (knock on wood!)

Alisha and I started having a craft day about twice a month back in May. I made the two bottom wall signs. It took me a whole day to make each of them, but I definitely felt some accomplishment when I was done. I still need to make another one to put in the bottom right corner. I actually would like to make new Christmas signs to hang during Christmastime. Whether or not I'll actually have the time to do that, I don't know.

Jared was going to put up the outside Christmas lights the Saturday after Thanksgiving, but he didn't like the hooks that he used last year, so he had to wait to get new ones. He bought some new ones last week and started putting up the lights this past Saturday. Come to find out, not all of the strands of lights were working!! Aaaahhh! Of course, I pouted some more and said it was never going to get done, so he went today after work to buy more new lights and then hung them up when he got home. Thank you, Jared!! I'm glad he puts up with me ;-)

There is nothing really special about the picture of our bedroom. My friend Ashley (Aynes) requested some pictures of the inside of our house, and Jared and I decided to finally clean up our bedroom, so I figured now was the best time to take a picture of it. Our bedroom furniture is so old. It's the furniture that I bought back in 2000 when I first went to college. Maybe one day we'll have enough money to buy new furniture, and maybe one day I'll decide to clean the rest of the house so I can post pictures of the other rooms. (You're really not missing much- trust me. The only decorating we have done is in the living room)

The Greatest Show on Earth!

On Saturday, Jared, Taylor, and I went to the circus! Jared had never been before, and he was really excited about going- I mean, he was really excited about taking Taylor to the circus! ;-) We had a lot of fun. I was looking forward to getting some cotton candy, but unfortunately, you had to purchase the cotton candy with a clown hat for $12!! How ridiculous is that?! You couldn't buy it separately. Everything was crazy expensive, so needless to say, we didn't buy any refreshments or souveniers. I took lots of pictures, but my camera had a hard time focusing because of the lighting, so they didn't all turn out very great.

The tigers were awesome. I took lots of pictures of them. The lion tamer even got one of them to bunny hop.. haha The elephants were cool too. They got them to pick their legs up like they were dancing, and they would put one leg up on a stool and then spin around it. There was a poodle that could do back flips, and there were zebras and horses that I had never seen before. There were gymnasts that did some crazy flips and a 5 person high pyramid. The tightrope walkers didn't just walk across the tightrope- they danced, jumproped, and rode unicycles across it! The trapeze artists were awesome, and there was a human canonball. There were some Asian girls that did some crazy pyramids (and bent in ways that no person should ever be able to bend!), and a few of them looked like they couldn't be any older than 8! I think Taylor's favorite part of the whole thing was the confetti, and she enjoyed eating her daddy's face during intermission.. haha

Saturday night, Jared and I went to some friends' house for a couples' night and "Just Desserts." My mom babysat Taylor. I love my little girl, but it has been nice to have a break these last few days! Once again, Taylor was great, and she and Grandma had a blast from about 7:00pm-10:30pm. She even started screaming when Grandma was walking out the door to leave.. haha Jared and I enjoyed the time with the Hatchers, the Merrills, and the Quinns. We played Catch Phrase. I love that game, but I haven't played it in so long. It was girls vs boys, and of course, the girls won (2 out of 3)! It made it even better knowing that maybe Taylor is finally getting to a point where Jared and I can go out and enjoy ourselves and not worry about her giving the babysitter a hard time. Thanks, Mom! We love you!

Party at The Ledges

Friday night, Merrill Lynch had their work Christmas Party at The Ledges Country Club in Huntsville. When Jared first told me about it, I was so excited because I have been dying to see the houses up there. For those of you who aren't from the Huntsville area, The Ledges is a private, gated-community that overlooks the city of Huntsville. There are several houses there that are selling for $3+million dollars! (You can check out this website for more details: http://www.huntsvillesold.com/MyHomeDtl.asp?lstPages=1&HomeID=329270)




Drinks started at 6:30pm. Jared and I enjoyed our Coke in very nice, fancy glasses. Dinner was at 7:00pm. We had a salad and some delicious prime rib with mashed potatoes and green beans. Jared was worried that they would go all skimpy on the food like most expensive restaurants do, but no, it was a huge piece of prime rib. Then, we had some fabulous chocolate cake. This is a picture of the place cards and some ornaments that were given to us.

I was a little nervous about going just because I didn't really know anyone, and I get really quiet around people I don't know. I had met a couple of the people Jared works with before but never really talked much to them. Everyone was really nice though, and their office manager got up and said a few words about how much they appreciate their employees and how it wouldn't be possible without their families... yada yada yada... It was really comforting to hear him talk about how family is important to them and to know that they care about more than just work. Jared getting the job at Merrill Lynch has definitely been a blessing for us.

As soon as we got there, I was kicking myself for not bringing my camera. I would have loved to have gotten some pictures of those houses! Of course, I don't think I would ever want to live in a house that big even if I had the money, but they sure are nice to look at! They might have gotten suspicious about someone driving around at night taking pictures of all the houses though, so it's probably a good thing that I didn't bring my camera.

Thanks again to Misty for babysitting Taylor! I've always worried about leaving Taylor with babysitters because she always tends to be fussy, and I just hate to burden anyone with that, but she and Misty had a great time, and I don't think she even missed us at all!

I Have to Brag

So, I have to brag on my wonderful husband. Last Monday, I was having one of "those days." You know those days- the ones where you just get really frustrated and every little thing gets to you- we all have them from time to time. Well, Jared called me when he was on his way home from work. He could tell that I was upset, so he asked what was wrong, and I just unloaded on him. After I got off the phone with him, I took a shower, and after I got out, he called me back. He said, "What are you doing?" and I said, "I just got out of the shower." He said, "Good. Get some clothes on. We're going out." I was very relieved to hear those words. He was so sweet. He called Misty, and she graciously agreed to watch Taylor at the last minute (thank you, Misty!), so we were able to go out to eat just the two of us. We went to eat at O'Charley's. We haven't been there in forever. They sat us right down with no wait, and the food was delicious. It was just what I needed. (The last thing I wanted to do was cook dinner that night). I am very grateful for Jared taking care of my mental health and keeping me sane!! ;-)

Iron Bowl

On Saturday, Jared experimented with cooking a turkey for the first time, and I say "experimented" because he cooked it out in our backyard inside of a metal trash can (a new one, not a used one). It actually turned out very well. His work gave him a gift card to Publix to buy a turkey, and Jared's favorite part of Thanksgiving is having turkey leftover to make sandwiches. Well, you can imagine with all the Mayfields that there is not usually much leftover, so he was happy to have a FREE turkey just for our little family. My mom and Nate Hughes came over that night to watch the Iron Bowl game with us. My mom brought a ham, chicken casserole, and green bean casserole, so we had another feast.

We had to get Taylor dressed up for the game, but as most of you know, we are a House Divided. What Taylor ended up wearing was an Auburn onesie with her Alabama cheerleading outfit over it (which Jared said was not fair), an Auburn hairbow, and an Auburn pacifier clip, and she had an Auburn rattle that says "Born to be a Tiger" (a gift from our friend Jessica). It wasn't the cutest combination in the world, but Taylor looks precious in whatever she wears (even if it is Auburn stuff).

I won't discuss how the game went because quite honestly I'm too competitive, and I'm usually a sore loser. Let's just say I was not happy and was pretty bored (with both teams) throughout the whole game. Jared was a good husband though and was not penalized for excessive celebration--- he knows better! ;-)
