Our baby turned 1 yesterday:) I can't believe it, it has been a long year. Well the doctor say Kendall is under weight for her age (sounds like Lil Ron)!! We are going to fatten her up these next couple of weeks before we start running test to make sure everything is ok with her. She is not completely walking yet but hopefully in the next month!! She is a very happy baby though, she wakes up happy and goes to sleep happy. Smiling all day long is what she likes to do. If she is crying then she is hungry or sleepy.
But for her birthday (also Andre's last day in town) we went out to dinner to this steak house then we came back to the house for some cake and ice cream. Kendall really enjoyed digging into it. She had cake everywhere:) Daddy cleaned her up for me while I cleaned up the mess in the kitchen. She got a few presents, Andre and I got her some horse that hooks up to the TV. Grandma and Grandpa Taylor a walking type toy. All in All it was a good time and we look forward to the many more birthdays to come.
Enjoy the pics.

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas Everyone,
Well, I guess for the people who live on the other side of the world!! We had a good Christmas in Japan. We hope that everyone else has a great time like we did!
We started the morning by opening up presents, which is always fun:) Everyone got something they wanted!! I just wish we could of spent Christmas with the rest of our families:( Then we ate a big breakfast. After that we just hung out around the house until it was time to start cooking dinner. Andre cooked a yummy roast and dressing. I cooked some deviled eggs and macaroni and cheese. Everything turned out great. Now we are just hanging out watching some movies until its time to go to bed.
We promise to try and call everyone for the Holidays but if we don't get a chance Merry Christmas and God Bless.
Love,
Andre, Tai , Alaina and Kendall

Happy Birthday Alaina
Happy Birthday Alaina!!!
My baby (I guess I need to stop saying that) turned 5 years old yesterday!! I can't believe it:) We didn't do anything big because we celebrated her birthday back in LA and we don't know to many people around here yet!! We had a good time though. Andre made it in from Korea the day before so that was exciting!! We made a homemade pizza and Andre made her a cake while I was at work. So we had pizza, cake and ice cream. It was fun!! Now we have to turn around and get ready for Christmas.

We Made It!!
Hello Everyone,
Well we made it to Japan as most of you know already!! It was a long, long trip and something I plan not to do in a very long time!! Alaina was my big helper though getting through the airports, hotels and planes!
Thank God there are still some nice people in the world still. The flight attendants were helpful and was there whenever I needed anything. The Japanese customs guy let me go to the front of the line since I had a baby (if we had to wait it would of be at least a 1 standing in a hot airport). The hardest part of the trip was getting to the hotel in Tokyo. The bus drivers and hotel clerks barely spoke any English. But after 4 flights 2 hotels and 1 bus ride we made it.
I have a great supervisor, he took care of everything for me when I first got here. He had a hotel waiting for me with food and baby items!! The first few weeks we all were trying to get used of the 15 hour time difference. Alaina seemed to do the best with it. Kendall and I struggled (Kendall still is). But now almost three weeks later we have a daycare, a house and car. It's not hard driving on the opposite side of the road but the road signs are in Japanese so they are kind of hard to understand. Off base has no street signs so you pretty much go off of land marks (Just up my alley).
The next few weeks are going to be busy!! Andre is coming in on Tuesday, YEAH!! Alaina's birthday is on the 24th and Kendall's is on Jan 8! I can't believe I am going to have a 5 year old and 1 year old. And they are still alive (remember Olivia used to say that on the Cosby's)!
Last but not least I want to give a special thanks to everyone in my family. I had the best trip ever before we headed over here. My family is wonderful and I don't know what I would do without them. I still would like to know if I am having a niece or nephew here in a few months but I'll let that go:) Well I promise to update at least bi-weekly while we are over here. I don't have to many pics of the girls over here but we will definitely take some during the Holidays coming until. Until next time...Tai

35 Days and a Wake Up
Hello Again,
Well time is flying by now!! This part is very stressful. Trying to get hotel rooms and plane tickets. The kids are good. Kendall is getting over a really bad ear infection. Her doctor was talking about putting tubes in her ears but they started to clear up. We went through three rounds of different medicines before it started to work. She is good now and playing like usual. Alaina is doing good in school she seems to be getting smarter each day that she goes. I plan on throwing her a going away/early birthday party before we leave. Well that's about all for now. Talk to you all soon.
