Jibber Jabber part 2

Ok, so here is a clip that better represents his jibbers and jabbers. He is looking at the mail and thinks he sees a picture of 'daddy' on the brochure. I am wondering if this is a phase or is this the rest of our lives!?!?

Jibber Jabber

Jibber Jabber.... jibber jabber.... jibber jabber.... is all we hear at our house right now. Tanner stayed Friday night with his grammy and papa and he has not stopped talking about it since! He came home constantly jibber jabbering. He still says all the words he knows but they are all linked together with a constant, well, jibber jabber. It is really funny, but exhausting! I guess this is paybacks for all the talking I did to my older brothers! I wish the video did his jibbers and jabbers justice, but it was the best we could get on film! Notice how his lil tongue is going in top speed -- what a silly boy!

Snuggles and Kisses with Baby Molly

Tanner got to hold lil baby Molly and thank goodness he was so gentle with her! He liked rubbing her belly and giving her snuggles and kisses. Hmmmm..... I think this has 'I want to be a big brother' written all over it! Thanks for letting Tanner hold Molly!

Monkey See, Monkey Do, Mommy's monkey goes to the zoo

We took Tanner to the zoo for the first time last week so that he could come eye to eye with some monkeys! We had a great time as a family and enjoyed getting to spend the day with Daddy! It was definitely a hot day, but the zoo had lots of indoor spots to cool down along the way so it wasn't too bad. We bought Tanner a monkey backpack to wear that has a leash on it so he could walk around without running off to far from us. Yes, I put a leash on my son! I felt a little weird at first, but it was the best thing ever! He was happy getting to walk freely and we were not chasing him all over the place -- WIN WIN :-) Plus, he looked really cute in it as you can tell from the pics! A must have item for a curious lil monkey like Tanner. We will definitley be going back, but once the weather is a bit cooler!

O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A Oklahoma OK

We had a great weekend in Ok with family and friends. We haven't made the trek since christmas and it was great to see everyone and eat at our favorite restaurants too! Yes, I enjoyed a great Johnnies burger (Bret I know you are jealous)!

Tanner took his first dip in a swimming pool and he actually liked it! Brian and I had a great time swimming as well! We had a busy weekend and Tanner played really hard with all his cousins. On the way home he was so pooped -- he crashed within 5 minutes (This was the first time Tanner has fallen asleep in the car since he was 9 months, so it was a big deal for us)! Thanks to all our Okie friends and family for a great time! Hope to see you all again soon!

The next two posts are new as well (I had a lot of updating to do) -- so be sure to check them out too!

10 Year Reunion!

Wow, its been 10 years since Brian and I have graduated from High School. This past weekend we went to Brian's 10 year reunion in Oklahoma. It was really neat because it kinda felt like my reunion as well. I was in Okla until the summer before 9th grade so a lot of the people Brian graduated with I went to elementary and jr. high with. It was fun to see all the old friends. Here are some pics from the night.

3 Generations

Last time Brian's parents came down they brought a terrific little table for tanner to play with. His parents brought it back from Wisconsin and it is actually the table that Brian's mom played with when she was little. When Brian would visit his grandparents he would play with it too. So three generations later .... Tanner loves it! Here is a picture of the 3 generations at the table -- what a great memory! I had to post the other two pics == my favorite of him and his big blue eyes and the other him napping... quite often his little tootsies are hanging out of the bed these days!
