Let's Go For a Swim!

Tanner got to experience his first dip in the pool yesterday. He didn't know quite what to think of it at first and even tried to crawl through the water. But by the end of the day he had the hang of it!

Mattie tries to reassure Tanner the water is fun!
Just watching the action from the safety of Mommy's lap. I'll be brave but I still want to hang on to Mommy's leg; just for now.I think I'll see what this duck tastes like.Hey this is kinda fun.
No that's okay. I know how to get out.I'm having so much fun!!

See My Front Teeth

Darn things just won't pop through. Here's a good picture of them trying to coming in. Poor Tan!

Boys Will Be Boys

While playing outside Tanner wanted to see how much mischief he could into.

Hmm..what's this fuzzy thing? Better check it out.

I think I'll give this stick a taste.
Oh yeah! Just as I thought! It's delicious!
Is Mommy looking at me?
I'll just put the lens cap back on for you Mommy.

I'm on the go!

Fun in the Sand Box

Tanner loves to play in the sand with his Sissy but he's still trying to figure it all out. He's not too sure yet what he's exactly suppose to do with all that sand but it's still a lot of fun.

The sand is a little cold on my feet.

This is fun!

I think I'll just play in the sand box lid for a while instead.Ya know, sand doesn't taste that bad.

Big Boy Food

We've been trying out some big boy food with Tanner the last few nights during dinner. He seems to enjoy them and hasn't had any problems yet. So far he's tried bread, crackers, spaghetti, Hamburger Helper (which he loved, just like Daddy!), very small pieces of hot dog and corn-on-the-cob but his was of course corn-off-the-cob.

Caught'cha!!!!

Tanner seems to have that "act casually and no one will know" look. We're not sure if he was trying to sneak a bottle or just getting a cold one for Daddy

Peeking out the Window

Tanner loves to look out the front door. It's so cute to see him stand on his tippy-toes to see what's going on outside. And just look at those adorable fat rolls on his legs!!!

The Best Takeout Ever!

Busted Mister!!

Tanner's has a new shortcut when it comes to getting toys that are on the other side of the end table. He just crawls right through it. I finally decided to take everything off the bottom shelf because he keeps doing it. What a stinker!

What do you mean? I'm not suppose to do this?

Wild One!

Western Heritage Museum

A few weekends ago we visited the Western Heritage Museum. We all had a lot of fun!

Tanner talking to a soldier. I think he was telling him "thank you" for protecting us.

Then he found a nice place to sit.All aboard!

9 Month Check-up Time

Tanner had his 9 month check-up on Thursday. The doctor said he's doing great, of course, and we noticed he's trying to get 4 for of his top teeth in all at once. Poor Tan!

Here are his 9 months stats:

Weight: 22 lbs. 3 oz. (75th percentile)
Height: 29 1/2 inches (90th percentile)
Head Circumference: 44 cm (25th percentile)

9 Months Old!!!

We've Been Hit

Tanner's new trick is to T.P. the house. He, of course thinks it's hilarious & has to eat a bunch of it before one of us catches him. Oh Tanner!

Whee !!!!!

Tanner is such a boy. He's always wanting to see how things work and likes to check out all the moving parts.

Going for a ride in my new dump truck.I'll just check out the wheels to see if they need to be fixed.
This toy is fun and it's just my size.

I don't care even when I fall off.

Hey there buddy. We hope that's just root beer you're drinking.

I wonder what's under the hood.

I love driving my little car!!!

Happy Easter!!

Wow! The Easter Bunny left me a basket too!!Let's just take a look and see what I got.
Hey, I found an egg!!
And here's one too!

I'm not exactly sure what I'm suppose to do with them one I find them but they sure do taste good.

Happy Easter!!

Time to Dye the Eggs!!

Tanner wasn't too sure what all this talk was about decorating Easter eggs but Daddy showed him what it was all about.

Helping Daddy carefully lowering the egg into the dye.

If it's alright with you I'd rather just eat these measuring spoons.
I'll supervise this one.

Ooh...let me touch it!!

All done!!

I Can Do It!!

Now that's I'm 8 months old I can hold my own bottle too!!

8 Months Old!!
