Rub a Dub...Tanner is in the Tub!

BATHTIME...OH SO FUN! Tanner finds great pleasure in bathime and loves to sit and splash. He is now 4months weighing 14# 8 ounces. He is in the 90%tile for ht. Tanner is my biggest boy yet. It was the master plan to survive his big brothers I am guessing.


Tanner continues to melt my heart with his sweet smile. Tanner's Smile+baby lotion=true love!


Tanner's favorite thing to do lately:
1. Play and kick on the floor while watching the circus around him (Parker and Hunter and dogs!)
2. Eat his hands!
3. Smile at mom (my favorite)
4. Spit up on dad (John's favorite)
5. Starting to love to jump in the jumper
6. Grabbing at weird baby toys hanging in my face!
7. Eat..Eat..Eat..
8. Started to make new friends at the daycare.
9. Watch star wars with my brothers (cool music with stereo!)
10. Poop explosively!

PRAY for me! Sometimes I almost get stepped on!

I am back!

Well, I am trying to learn how blogging works...so far I still have questions and need help. I had Tanner added to our family and have so much to share but I need a little time to pull it off. I am good and happy to be the mom of 3 cute little boys. Life is busy and fun! Tanner is 11 weeks and I will try to get caught up on pics as soon as I get a few more minutes! Ha ha.

A Beautiful Mother's Day 2008!

Hunter was so proud that he made me a homemade bracelet and card. He is so good at writing notes now, so it was extra special! He asked me, "Do you love me more because I gave you a gift?" I was so happy that he was pleasant all day and tried to make my day extra special. It has only taken 6 years for that to happen.




















I love my boys! I am so thankful for their sweet and spunky personalities! Parker is almost 3 and I think back to when I was almost ready to have Parker and Hunter was 3.5 years. Hunter had a great picture by the tulips in our yard. Well, that was was the plan today too but after a couple of minutes Parker had found great pleasure in destroying my tulips in our little yard. I had to go to the neighbors house for this memorable little photo shoot!

Sweet & Innocent! Not a chance! That sweet little boy just picked apart the only little flowers I have in my yard. Parker felt kinda bad and was trying to put the tulips back on their stems, but it didn't work. Parker love to be outside and is learning about the wonders of the earth!

Yes, I am still Pregant and I hate to get this on film, but it is for the "family history." I am almost 32 weeks and due July 6th. I look ready to deliver this month! The little boy inside has been doing flips and enjoys "interacting" with me throughout the day. He seems more active in the day than the other pregnancies. I felt so much bigger today and Hunter said I look like I have not just one but 2 basketballs inside. -----May 11, 2008

The Engineer of our family!

Hunter takes pride in building great train track layouts. We pulled out the tracks Sunday and I asked him to teach Parker how to build. Of course Parker, finds delight in "messing it up to make Hunter mad." Hunter made this fun little design and then a simple circle on the side for Parker.








So are the trains going to crash? I did not notice that until I looked at the photos later.



















Hunter wanted to pose for the picture but I took one of him "setting up." He makes me laugh! I am glad that he is so creative!

Parker is almost 3 and hitting his 2 year-old tantrum intense phase. Hunter was also a challenge but we lived through it. Parker is also very intense in a funny way! He thinks he is a rock-n-roll star and has always loved music. He was thrilled to receive his first real guitar. He jumped up on the chest and was jumping around "jammin out." My favorite part is when he says, "watch this, I will put it on my knee." I hope that someday this love grows into actual talent to entertain us for years!

Baby Boy in the works!

I am now 22 weeks along and there is another baby BOY inside doing gymnastics or karate...It is finally getting interesting and enjoyable. However, I am not enjoying getting a bigger belly quicker. This little guy is due by July 13th but measured to be possibly due July 6th. Hunter and Parker are thrilled and hug the belly each day. Hunter is constantly reminding me of how big I am getting.















Well I made it to 15 weeks and survived the nausea and miserable days. Things are so much more intense this time and it makes me wonder if I am excited about this rollercoaster ride called pregnancy. I am a bit freaked out that I am already looking pregnant. I also worry of how am I going to handle 3 kids.
