Merry Christmas Everyone!

7 Months!

Tanner turned 7 months today!  He is such a little stinker, and he is more fun that would know what to do with some days!!!  We love this little man so much!  He doesn't really have stranger-danger yet, but he isn't very happy when Mommy or Daddy walk out of the room.  It's silly, but it feels so good to have a little person need and want you so much... It's fun to be needed like that!

Handsome Tanner!

6 Months old and Thanksgiving!

I can not believe that our little man is 6 months old!  He is growing up so fast!  At his 6 month check-up, he was 16 lbs and 26 3/4 inches long!

Tanner loves to be outside and going for walks!

Our Sweet, Happy little man!

Tanner's First Halloween!!!!

We had so much fun celebrating Tanner's first Halloween!!!  We went to a fun Halloween party at our friends' house and had a great time!  Then, we sat on our porch handing out candy to Trick-or-Treaters!  Next year it will be fun to take him Trick-or-Treating!

5 Months!

Tanner is 5 months!  He is so much fun!  He is getting so big! (I think he's a little over 14 pounds now) and learning so many things!  He is laughing more... without really having to be forced to laugh! =)  Little bits of his sweet personality come out every day and we love him more and more every day!  We are so excited to celebrate all of his 1st holidays with him in the next few months!!!

5 Months Old!

He started sitting up on his own at 5 months!

He was given a HUGE elephant and he wasn't quite sure what to think of it!

Too adorable!

Doesn't really know what to think of or what to do in his Johnny Jumper yet!  He just spins around in circles!

Mommy & Daddy wanted to go to the temple, but with it being 2 hours away, that's a long time to leave our little guy with someone, so Tanner went to the temple with us!  We just took turns!

4 Months!

So, this is a little late coming, but Tanner is 4 months old!  At his 4 month Doctor's appointment he was 13lb 1oz (15th%) and 25 inches long (90th%)!  He is growing so fast!  The doctor had us start Tanner on cereal and fruits and veggies and he LOVES eating Big Boy Food! (Peaches and Green Beans are his favorite!)  He is so much fun!  His little personality comes out more and more each day and he is really learning and catching on to a lot!

4 Months Old!

His favorite trick to do with Daddy!  He really does a great job and at times will stand there for over a minute!

First time eating cereal!  He loved it and did really well eating off the spoon!  He looks so big sitting there in his high chair for the first time. I felt like he aged months just by sitting him there and feeding him!  Kind of made me sad! 

His new toy that Mommy got for her birthday! =)  He loves being a big boy!

He will not just "sit" in his Bumbo anymore. He twists like this and scoots himself around and is always reaching for and playing with things!

My "Super Baby"!  This is his Halloween costume!  I had so much fun making it!  (More pictures to come, after Halloween!)

I absolutely love being Tanner's mommy!  He is so much fun and my life feels more complete with him here!

A Few Recent Projects!

I've been really getting in to Pinterest lately and have had fun doing a few new crafts!  They aren't perfect by any means, but I've sure had fun doing them!

Love this!!!  I pull-out pantry that hides on the side of the refrigerator!  Genius!  I ended up with a lot of spare room in my cupboard after filling this up!

This is where I found the idea!

Tiled mirror, made from Dollar Store mirrors!

This is where I found the idea!

Just a fun little weekly calendar on my white board!

Turned all of Tanner's button front shirts into onesies... because I don't love that they will never stayed tucked in!  Wish I had done this before family pictures this summer! Would have helped out a lot!

This is where I found the idea!

A little tie for Tanner!  This was the only scrap fabric I had, but I plan to make several more!  They are so cute and super simple!

This is where I found the idea!
