Pumpkin Patch

On our trip up north to have an early birthday party for Tanner we were able to visit the pumpkin patch with my good friend Jaclyn, her daughter Nayeli, and Grandma Cathy. We had so much fun with the kids and Grandmas, we really wish we lived closer. Here are some snapshots from our morning together.



Tanner and Nayeli added to the Fall decor. They sat so still on the pumpkins which were loaded into the back of an old truck.




These two received a wheelbarrow ride out to the pumpkin patch from Grandma Mary. We were impressed that they didn't even try to crawl out. They seemed to really enjoy the ride!



Tanner and Nayeli LOVED the animals. Both of them were trying to climb into the pens with the animals. It was so cute to watch them together watching the animals.



The kids and the proud Grandmas!



Our son the scarecrow! The first picture we took like this was great but then he tried to stick his head through the hole which made this picture even better.
Overall we had an amazing time with amazing friends. We can't wait to watch Nayeli and Tanner grow up together!

11 months

Tanner is a growing boy! 11 months old and he is into everything. One of his new favorite places is under the dining room table. He likes to go under there and look out the window into the backyard.




We ended up with great weather for first trip to the pumpkin patch. Tanner loved the train ride and he even found a pumpkin his size...which he thinks is a ball and throws around the living room. Here is a picture of Tyler and Tanner with the pumpkin they found.



Another new favorite place of Tanner's is the dishwasher. I find it sad that I have to do dishes secretively or else I get a "helper" everytime I open the dishwasher door. The other day he actually managed to pull the entire drawer out and put it on the floor.



Here is a picture of Tanner watching the animals at the pumpkin patch. He really wanted the donkey to come over and see him.






Here he is at 11 months...what a character! We can't believe that he is almost a year old!

10 months

I know this is really late...our lives have been a little busy, but I made a promise that I would get it updated. So here is the first of many updates all at once.
During August we had the chance to go to the fair and Tanner loved the animals. He was very upset when one of them tried to eat his shoe but loved "petting" and watching them.




Tanner has decided that he doesn't really need naps. But Tyler and I think otherwise. This picture was taken when he was throwing a fit (not our son...right?) about taking a nap. He cried and cried with Tyler and the next thing we know, he is curled up on Tyler sound asleep.



And here is his 10 month picture. He is so mobile and active that he didn't want to stay in the chair. As you can tell from his face he definately has a great personality and we are seeing more of it everyday. Tanner's new favorite game is to stand next to his toy box and pull all the toys out and put them on the floor. He is trying very hard to communicate and makes noises all the time.
