1 Month

Someone decided it was okay to for him to turn 1 month old last week. Not sure who gave him that permission (probably his Daddy) because I sure didn't! He is getting big, and I don't like it! Oh, well. Can't stop him.

Some Tanner Facts: On Nov 11 (almost 1 month old) he weighed 9 lbs 5oz. So he gained about 2 pounds in his first month. He was 21.25 in length (These numbers are more for my benefit, fyi)
Eli grew out of Newborn Size Clothes in under 2 weeks. Tanner is just now starting to grow out of Newborn clothes, but some still fit! (He is 5 weeks now, by the way)
We thought Eli was an easy baby. Tanner is even easier. I didn't think it was possible. He is so easy going, cries only when there is a reason to, and just so cuddly and lovable. I didn't full enjoy or appreciate the newborn phase with Eli. This time around I have been loving it up and don't want it to end!

 And, for your viewing pleasure:





 Is it me, or is he just teeny in that crib?


Brotherly Love

Everyone keeps asking how Eli is handling having Tanner around. Mostly like this:
We are working on being soft, though it isn't quite getting through. But so far, not too much jealousy. I just need to figure out how to make sure he gets all the attention he needs. Any tips would be appreciated.

BYU Fan

Yes, I am one of those parents who teaches their toddler early what school to root for...

Fall Photos

Last year and this year Eli and I went with some of the other Dental Families to take Fall Pictures at Alpenrose Dairy. Eli was much more cooperative this time around. :)

I was still pregnant (1 day late) on this day, so no Tanner photos.












Halloween

Better late than never. This was our Halloween this year!

This first batch of photos is from the Ward Halloween party. We were a zoo:Giraffe, Monkey, Bird and Zoo Keeper. :)





We went to the Lee Farms Pumpkin Patch on Saturday and had a great time as a family!






Halloween night. Trick-or-Treating with cousins. Eli loved it! He still asks to go trick-or-treating again. I'm so glad we got pictures, and video, of his first Halloween. And to think that I was considering staying inside with Tanner, and letting David have all the fun. Bah!

Sorry the video is sideways...
