You got it folks, we are having another sweet little girl! She is due June 18th and we are really excited. Although Mark is excited I think it will take him a little while to accept the fact that he is so outnumbered. One of his main concerns is that he won't have anyone to watch Star Wars with. I assured him that our little girls could love Star Wars too if we show it to them young enough. :-) Meira already loves football and cheers, "Ootah, Ootah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!" There couldn't be a better daddy for little girls though. He is wonderful and we love him.
Our little girl is healthy, wiggly, and already sucking her thumb. It looks like she will follow her big sister's footsteps in the thumb sucking. We feel very blessed to be adding onto our family and to have everything going well so far. We'll keep everyone updated.

2009 Update!
I saw the owl wall paper and had to use it. Meira is in love with owls right now. As a matter of fact, when she saw it come up on the screen she immediately starting hooting and saying, "OWEL!"
This will be a no picture update. I suppose that an update is better than no update at all, right? I have to download many new pictures that I have, but I am not patient enough for our slow computer to get the job done.
2009 is starting our great. We are aware that the Lord has given us many blessings starting with Mark's new job working for Siegfried & Jensen. This is a fantastic firm that handles a variety of personal injury cases. Mark is handling all of their Spanish speaking cases which is great because he is fine-tuning his Spanish speaking skills from his mission.
So far Mark loves his job. The people he works with are all very nice. He has more time away from work and a lot less stress. But best of all, Mark no longer has to travel!!! We are thrilled that Mark gets to be home with the family more. It is especially nice news because we are pregnant with baby #2.
Yes, our 2nd bit of news for 2009 is that our family is growing. We are due June 18th and can hardly wait to find out next week if we are having a boy or a girl. We don't care either way. Like most parents, we just want a healthy baby.
I feel like I am an official mom now. We bought our first van this past weekend. We are the proud owners of a Toyota Sienna van. I can't believe that I am a "van mom" and for some reason that just makes me feel old. Don't think that I am complaining because this van is going to be awesome to take lots of baby stuff and get babies in and out of, but do you know what I mean? I guess it's just a new chapter in life that I am entering. I embrace it with open arms.
Meira is growing like crazy. She is our parrot repeating everything that we say. She gets her colors in her box right about 90% of the time now. She recognizes and remembers people she meets, including their names (which is better than me). She loves "Ring Around the Rosies) and will have anyone sing and repeat it as many times as bearable. It is also the first song she has attempted to sing. Spinning in circles she says, "pocket full of posies, ashes, ashes, ashes." We are sure that we have been given a genius child. But then, we know that most parents feel that way about their children. We are just thrilled with her desire and ability to learn every day. We adore her and love the little girl she is becoming.
I am busy at home with Meira and trying to get ready for baby #2 who will be here sooner than we can imagine. I really enjoy being at home to take care of my family's needs. I look forward to another baby in our family. I know that that update sounds really plain and boring, but anyone who is a mother or father can appreciate all of the unwritten details that accompany motherhood. My life is busy, full, and fortunately happy.
The Taylor's are well beginning 2009. I'll get some pictures and details of what's been going on as soon as possible.
