April Updates

This seems to be the easiest way to post these days. Unless we have a special event like Easter! That is a post all by itself.


This is the most recent picture of Mr. T. He was playing last night after we got home and so I took some pictures of him. He is getting so big and I just gave him his 3rd haircut! It's so funny how is eyes look blue in all the pictures I take of him, but they are really green.


During Spring Break we spent a lot of time with our nieces Courtney and Ashley! We went to the zoo one day and this is the only picture I took of Jt. I've been a slacker lately!
I did however have Courtney take this picture of Tanner and I while I had my camera out.

Last weekend I was outside gardening and Jackson was outside running around with not much to do, so Jeff decided to set up the slip n slide. It was beautiful outside so we took advantage of the sun. The water was a little chilly, but when your a kid it really doesn't matter!


Big kids are allowed too!


Look at my handsome big boy! I'm gonna have to beat the girls off with a stick!


Jackson was asking for it!


Jackson and his class at their Easter party. They had a Easter egg hunt and made egg sandwiches. Not sure if he liked them much, but he ate most of it. I should ask him if he wants me to make him one for lunch tomorrow! lol


This is at the beginning of the month. We went to Playland in Roeding Park for Miss Hayden's 2nd birthday and it was a date for Jt and I. We left Tanner home with my dad and we got to spend some time together. We had a blast running around and riding all the rides. I don't think he wanted to go home, poor guy!


My sweet boy riding the big rides all by himself!


This month has been so crazy busy. We have done so much it's hard for me to sit down and blog. These long post are just so easy for me right now.


We did however get to see our other Blaufuss family from Bakersfield for a few ours during the Big Hat Days Festival. That was a treat for Jt. He has 2 cousins that are his age and he got to spend some time with them.


We also took Jackson to see RIO. Jeff and I had a date with him and it was much needed for Jt.


So all in all like I said, "it's been busy!"



10 Months Old

I know... I know... This is so late. These months with holidays are crazy.

Here he is... Big and full of smiles!

This month and the next couple months are going to be tough to take monthly photos of him. Good thing for restraints! lol
What Tanner has been doing:
*walks along the couch and will sometimes balance on his own. (late walker)
*Started "your baby can read," he can do arms up, arms down, clap/clapping, wave and shakes his head NO! HE learned all of these in just a couple weeks. (A post in itself)
*Has 4 new top teeth coming in at once. He's been a pill the last week.
*Loves our food. Absolutely fights me when it comes to his food.
*More codependent, but will play some by himself.
*Loves to be held
*Can figure his toys out pretty fast and loves to throw and chase balls.
*Loves listening to music and dancing along

This month has been so crazy. Jackson's school party, doctors visits, birthday party, play dates, training for a 10k and Easter. Phew, the time has flown by so fast and the only thing I can really remember this month is just how bad Tanner's teeth have been bothering him. 4 new top teeth (all at once) and one fussy baby. I have not been able to put him down for the life of me and when I do he just screams. He has even resisted naps and when I finally go in to rescue him he passes out in my arms. These last couple weeks have been crazy, but this is what makes it fun and more memorable, right? Especially getting to snuggle him and try to make him more comfortable. As of today he has been so happy so we'll see what the next few days will bring us!
Happy 10 months buddy! Almost a year old:(((
