Baby Bio Published on January 17, 2002 © 2002- Blethen Maine Newspapers, Inc. Taylor Jayma Garland was born on Dec. 20, 2001, in The Birthplace at Mercy Hospital, a daughter of Terri (Brown) and Scott Garland. She weighed 6 pounds, 13 ounces and was 19 1/4 inches long. Taylor lives with her parents in Windham, where her mom grew up and attended school. After high school, Terri received her bachelor's degree in nursing from the University of Southern Maine, and worked at the Barron Center in Portland. After Taylor's birth Terri became a full-time mom. Scott grew up in Westbrook and graduated from Westbrook High School. He is a professional wrestler and works for the World Wrestling Federation. He loves his job, but hates being away from Taylor. Terri and Taylor met 11 years ago and have been married for three and a half years. Since Taylor is only 3 weeks old, she doesn't have a lot of favorites yet, but definitely likes to snuggle and hang out with her mom and dad. Both Terri and Scott hope Taylor likes Disney World and Disneyland when she gets older because they enjoy going to the parks. In fact, before she was born, Taylor went to both Disney World and Disneyland several times while Terri was pregnant. Taylor's maternal grandparents, Norma and Robert Brown, longtime residents of Brown Cove Road in Windham, moved to Clayton, N.C., about six years ago. Her paternal grandparents, Janet and Ronald Garland, live in Westbrook. Her maternal great-grandfather, Maurice Fowles, is from South Portland; her paternal great-grandparents are Betty and Clinton Moody, and Blanche and Roger Garland, all of Westbrook. |

Pass out the cigars ... hold the Worm jokes : COURTESY OF WWF.COM by Mike Fazioli NEW YORK -- Scotty 2 Hotty rolled his eyes and sadly shook his head. There was that damn question again. "No, she can't do The Worm yet," the proud new father said of his baby daughter, Taylor. "You're only the millionth person to ask me that." Cliché-ridden questions aside, Scotty was still beaming Monday night at Madison Square Garden, over three weeks after Taylor's birth on Dec. 20. The first child for Scotty and his wife, Terri, weighed in at a healthy 6 pounds, 13 ounces, and timed her big debut perfectly for her Pops. The episodes of RAW and SmackDown! shown over the holidays were taped on Dec. 21-22, but Scotty got to stay behind with his newly-expanded family. There is, however, one benefit of being back on the road for the new father. "I get to sleep in on the road," he said. "At home the baby keeps us up a lot, but on the road I get to sleep until noon if I want. I definitely can't do that at home." Taylor's arrival also gives Scotty the opportunity to share his borderline-manic Disney obsession with someone slightly more age-appropriate. Taylor's room and closets are already amply-stocked with Disney paraphernalia, including a Dumbo costume for her first Halloween-which Scotty bought even before Taylor was born. "I'm sure she's going to hate Minnie Mouse later on," he said. Almost as much as he hates it when people ask if Taylor can do The Worm. |
