Do I want to be a CPA or an Artist?

Yesterday Tanner and I spent the whole day together. Tory was playing his last golf tournament for the year so we went shopping. While I was getting ready, Tanner pulled open Tory's night stand and pulled out the calculator. He carried it all around the house and played with it along with the broken mouse. I guess he is starting early with the love for numbers?

This was Tanner's first full week in his new classroom. He is now in Sweet 150 with the 12-18 month olds and he is so small compared to the bigger kids. It was nice to pick him up on Friday and get his papers that he had done during the week. I guess now I need to put these in his scrapbook.

Were did the month of September go??? 1st half of the month

September went by so fast that I never got to post what all happened during the month. This month Tanner had lots of new 1st.

Here are pictures of our first round of golf as a threesome. Tanner enjoyed being outside. It was all great till hole 16 and I got a migraine and sat out playing the hole. Tanner stayed in the cart with me and the next thing I know, Tanner tried to get out of the cart by himself and well, fell hitting his head on the sidewalk.

We told our neighbor about Tanner's fall when we got home and she asked if had thrown up following the fall. He had not so we did not think anything about it. Well next morning we had to wake him up at 9:00am which is very unusual since he normally is up at 7:00 sharp. Tory brought him down and I told him that he still stunk from yesterday even after giving him a 20 minute bath. Well, we then realized that he had thrown up in his bed. After throwing up 5 more times in the matter of 20 minutes, I called Tory to come back home and we took Tanner to Texas Children's for his first visit to the ER and his first CAT scan. The doctor then told us that yes he had a small concussion but everything else was fine.

Then this little storm Hurricane Ike, which Tory kept telling us that it was going to turn right, looked like it had his eye set for Houston. After calling back home (New Orleans) I deceided to pack us all up while Tory took his 8 mile run and we left the day before the storm. No one was on the road so it was an easy drive. We lost power Friday night at 8pm so I was so glad that we left. It was nice to spend a long weekend (5 days). We did not have any major damage but the eye did pass over our house.

Here are some pictures during our stay just hanging out with all our family.

Cousinly love

Tanner and Sienna. Tanner is more on the run then wanting to have his picture taken with his cousin.
Ms. Sienna Henderson, 2008 St. Jude Fall Fest Baby Angel Queen. We need to find her a crown to wear now that will fit.

My cousin Kristi and I are 3 months and 1 day appart. It has always been a big family job between the 2 of us. Tanner and Sienna were going to also be 3 months apart, however, Sienna deceided to come a month early so they are 2 months apart.

Need to finish "Tanner" proofing the house

Tory and I watch Tanner for almost 10 minutes determined to get the box that we have used as a gate down. The thing that was the funniest is that he had not interest in going up the stairs but had so much fun just standing on walking on the box. I think I will be making a trip to Babies R Us for a gate this week.
Tanner loves to play in the computer cords. I have yet to figure out what do with them.

Tanner's 9 month old photo shoot

I can not believe that my little man is 3 months away from his 1st birthday. This was such a fun shoot to do with Tanner. It was his first outdoor photos and Kelsey really did a great job. I can not wait to see the rest. Might have to send Carter's an email and see if they need any more male models

PeePee in the potty!

Last weekend Babies R Us had a sale on diapers, so I sent Tory to stock up on them for Tanner. Tory picked up 4 Large boxes of diapers and also a potty. We put Tanner on his new potty tonight while waiting for his bath water to get warm. I think he liked all the attention and the fact that I took about 50 pictures of him in the matter of 10 minutes. Sometime during my picture taking and all the fuss, he made peepee in his potty.

Swim Lessons

Tanner and I finished up swim lessons today. The class was 2 weeks long and the best part was the nap Tanner took after class. He had so much fun he wore himself out. The last day of class Tory was able to come watch us. Tanner did not like tring to float on his back and his favorite was jumping in the water.
