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.

Tanner, Mommy & Mattie

Kids for Sale. Any takers?

Tanner is having so much fun on the pumpkin mound.Looking for the perfect pumpkin.

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

This one Daddy! This is the perfect pumpkin!

Yay for the pumpkin patch! I can't wait to come back next year!

I Believe in Using All Natural Products

Tanner must be concerned for the Earth because he decided using a fresh banana would be a great styling product. After all it did give him the spiked-look he was after. Oh, and it does wonders for the skin too.

Take Me Out to the Ball Game One Last Time

We all went to one of the last Omaha Royals game with Grandma & Grandpa G a few weeks ago. Even though this was one of the last times for Tanner to see a baseball game at Rosenblatt we know he'll have plenty of more games to watch at the new stadium.

Standing in front of the famous "Road to Omaha" statue.Watching the game with Grandpa G & Grandma G.
I'd better check these seats out.

It's okay Tanner a lot of people fall asleep at a baseball game.

Goodbye Rosenblatt! It's been fun!!

Clifford the Big Red Dog

Clifford the Big Red Dog was on exhibit at the Omaha Children's Museum. Tanner had a blast checking everything out.

Meeting Clifford.

Sliding down Clifford's tail.

Driving the ferry boat.
Time for some music. I really rock on this xylophone.

Everyone hop in I'm driving.

Dropping off a little mail to Clifford.

Time for some water play fun in the rest of the museum. Fireman Tanner.I'll put you under my spell with this magic potion.

This letter 'O' played music if you sat in the middle. So Tanner is dancing while Mattie's butt make music.

I'll Sit with You Sissy

Tanner wanted to sit with Mattie at the little table the other night. It was so cute to see the both of them sitting there together.

Sure Tan you can sit with me.Hey Sissy, I think you've got something on your face.

Sitting here just makes everything taste so much better.

Tanner's 1st Haircut

Let's just say it didn't go so well. But after a while he stopped crying. Poor guy.

A New Cozy Spot to Sleep

Lately Tanner has been crawling up in the recliner and falling asleep all by himself. Poor Tanner. It's hard work playing all day.

I'll Eat Here Today

Tanner saw that Sissy was sitting at the kitchen table for breakfast so he decided he wanted to also. He looks so grown up sitting there like a big boy.

Again Tanner!

Looks like we caught you red-handed once again.

My New Kitchen Helper

Now that Tanner has figured out he can push a chair up to the counter he insists on helping Mommy cook.

It looks like this chicken could use a little more bread crumbs.

Bam! That's what I'm talking about!

Yep....looks good. Mommy will appreciate my help.

I Love Syrup

Tanner loves syrup. In fact, every time the pantry door is opened (which now has a child-proof lock) he runs for the maple syrup. He reminds us of Buddy the Elf. If you've never seen the movie "Elf" then check out this movie clip from YouTube. http://youtu.be/zQrrp5JL8MI

Mine! Mine! It's all mine!!Sucking as much syrup he can before he gets in trouble. From the looks of his eyes I'd say he's had way too much.

My 1st Trip to the Iowa State Fair

This was Tanner's first trip to the Iowa State Fair and we were so excitied for him. Since he absoultley loves animals we knew he would have a blast just like we all do.

Finally...we have arrived at our desination!!!!

First stop, a yummy, warm cup o'cookies. They are awesome!!

Tan got to meet Clifford too!

Then it was time to move on to the petting zoo. Just look at Tanner's face. He's loving this cow.

Checking out the goats.

Petting every goat he could reach.

Watching the ducks.

Tanner decided he couldn't see enough of the action so he had to turn himself around in the wagon. After all, he didn't want to miss anything.

One day old baby pigs.

Tanner was so exicted to see the baby pigs that he almost jumped right out of my arms.

Of course the fair is famous for all the foods-on-a-stick. Here's Tanner trying out an egg on a stick.

Looks like the fair wore Tanner out. Guess that means he had a great time!!
