18 months old

Happy Pioneer Day to everyone.
Today, my little Tanner Boy is 18 months old! Here are a few (Okay more than a few) pictures of our cute 18 month old. Tanner has such a fun, cute, easy going personality and we love him to pieces!

Take me Out to the Ball Game

It just wouldn't be summer without going to a baseball game right? We went up to Cincinnati last weekend to the Reds Baseball game. It was a lot fun, and perfect baseball weather!

Mason's Drawing obsession

Thought I would share with you all a SMALL sampling of the things Mason has created lately. He LOVES to draw and color and cut and tape.His Gun in the holsterThis is one of my favorites. This was when he was all into Bolt. He had Drew draw him Bolt all the time, but he came up with this on his own... the Green eyed man! Yes that is yarn all balled up as the 'green eye'
These next two were part of a whole set up. The one above was the the bad guy (Left) and a Castle (Right). Then below is the Knights horse complete with all the proper attire. There were others that went with this... a knight, a princess, swords, you get the picture.These were done during the dragon phase, totally into dragons and blowing fire.

All original art work done by none other then this Guy!
Now you know why we go through so much tape and paper at my house! And he won't let us throw any of it away (mom you would be going crazy!) So I have this giant sack with everything in it, and it is getting bigger by the day. His art is starting to consume our house!

The challenge was to take pictures of what you were doing on

Since I got this a little late thought I would just share what I was doing.

My cute little Tanner and I were enjoying some one on one time together at a mommy and me swim class (which he totally loves!!)

Hope you all were doing something totally fun on

Hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July!

First Tee Ball Game

Last Saturday Mason had his FIRST Tee ball Game. It was a VERY HOT, HUMID day, but it was fun to see him play. He loves hitting the ball, but I think he got a little bored (or maybe just hot and tired) playing in the outfield. He did a great Job! Can't wait for more!Tanner thinks he needs to be playing too!

What do you get after a LONG, HOT day at the ZOO?

Two VERY TIRED boys!

This is pretty typical for Tanner to fall asleep in the car, but so not like Mason. He never falls asleep in the car, so he must have been totally exhausted.

Swimming Lessons

A couple of weeks ago Mason did swim lessons. He loved it! He is going to do another session next week. He is getting so good in the water!!
