Bowling!

Tanner went bowling for the first time on New Year's Eve Day. He loved rolling the ball down the lane but he also wanted to chase the ball down the lane. Needless to say Mommy & Daddy had their fair share of chasing Tanner down the very slippery lane.

Bowling is so much fun!

Daddy showing Tanner how it's done.

A short video of Tanner bowling.

What?

A piece of spaghetti on my head? What are you talking about?

We're Twins! Well Almost

Daddy & Tanner almost look like twins in their matching coats.

Christmas!

Leaving milk and cookies for Santa and a carrot with ranch for Rudolph.

Whoa! Santa left a lot of presents!

The stockings were full too.

How in the world did Santa get into our house & eat these cookies?

Tanner was too excited to ride his new fire truck that he didn't even take all the paper off.

I'm gonna use my teeth to open this one.

Checking out his new bath tub fishing boat.

Even Tanner loves to play with Mattie's new nursery.

Merry Christmas!!

Tanner: The Artist

Tanner painted his very first ornament at Grandma G's house the other day. He did such a great job!

Just Kicking Back & Relaxing

Here's another picture of Tanner enjoying some corn only this time he's in ultimate relax mode.

What? I'm still dreaming of summer. A kid can dream can't he?

Now this is living!

Practicing for Summer

Tanner thought he'd get a little corn-on-the-cob eating practice in so he'll be all ready for summer. And since he's dreaming of summer Tan thought he'd take his shirt off too!

Santa!

Well...at least he wasn't crying but he does have that "get me outta here" look.

Fun at Bass Pro Shops

While Daddy & Mattie were keeping our place in line to see Santa, Mommy had to try to keep Tan busy. So we had a little photo shoot with some of the animals. He, of course, loved every minute of it.

One Last Hoorah!

It's not often the kids can go outside, in December, and play without it being freezing.So we'll enjoy these 50 degree temps while we can.

Thanksgiving

Although Tanner doesn't understand what Thanksgiving is all about just quite yet he does know it involves eating.

Is it ready yet?

Mmmm.....smells great! No thanks, I don't need a plate.

Okay, I'll take a plate.Umm....I wasn't sneaking a bite, no sir not me!

Big Boy Bed

Daddy converted Tanner's crib into the toddler bed today! He seems to like it so far. We'll see how tonight goes.

It's a Boy Thing

They Call Him the Gambler

Looks like Tanner has the gambling bug. Let's give it a spin! C'mon 7!

Let's Give This a Try

Tanner has been very interested in the potty lately. He'll open the lid, back up, close the lid and flush it. So Mommy thought she would try to sit him on it because you never know what will happen. Well, nothing happened but it was worth a try.

Happy Halloween!!

Ready for the first house. I'll let Mattie handle the first one that way I'll know what to do.Wait Mattie!! You said I could ring the doorbell this time!!
Checking out a neighbors fun decorations.

All the loot! Let's see what I've go here.

Happy Halloween!

Pumpkin Patch

When we went to the pumpkin patch last year Tanner was only 2 months old so this year we knew he would have so much fun and he sure did!

Petting the goats.
Looks like Tanner is too busy picking the perfect pumpkin to look at the camera.

Hmm..this looks like a good one. Now, if I could only pick it up.
