Wow....summer is in full swing at this household...and this momma feels like a circus juggler! Nevertheless, we are trying to have fun (despite having daily chores which the kids complain about) make memories, and enjoy the beautiful weather before it gets cold again!
I'm very behind on my blogging (all in good reason though). And I am glad to report that I now can get caught up since I have a new computer with lots of memory that I can download pictures to and from and I don't have to borrow Adam's! So....may the catching up begin!
I had to share a funny from today at church. Tanner was sitting next to me and out of the blue he asks me, "Mom, what are you going to do when you are a grandma?" I smiled and quickly replied, "Well, Tan, I am going to work in the temple, go on bike rides with your Dad, bake cookies for all my grandkids, and then you'll bring your kids over to my house so I can babysit them while you take your wife out on a date!" His reply was, "well, I'll drop the kids off at your house, then I'll go somewhere I want to go and my wife will probably just go shopping!" I just giggled quietly to myself!! You see...Tanner is ok thinking about being a dad and having kids, but he isn't so sure about the idea of being married and having a wife and being in love with someone!!! Caden has to remind him that he will get married someday and have a family of his own. It's just funny! He gets grossed out when people kiss, too! He squirms......we laugh!
Thanks for the Sunday funny Tan! We love you!

Funnies to Remember
Alright - I just have to write these down before I forget. Tanner has been saying the funniest things lately and I will stay up late tonight just so I can journal about them!
Today I went downtown with all 3 kids (I never do this) to pick up some medicine for Caden's stomach. We went to this older building and had to go downstairs to a natural medicine office. I suspected that it might have a different smell to it, and once we opened the door I guessed right! Gabe especially said "It's stinky in here"! Then he continued to hold his nose the whole time we were there! I'm trying to quietly tell them not to make a big deal of it, but he did! Upon leaving the building Tanner asks me in the hallway, "Mom, are there any old ladies in there"? "I don't know, Tan- why?" "Because it sure smells like it"!! I just busted up laughing!!!
I'm so grateful to be laughin instead of screaming!! It's so nice for a change! (just being honest!)
The other funny was a few weeks ago when we were hanging out in the kitchen and he was on the chair and I was facing him and we were talking about something I don't even remember and when I gave him my answer about something, he gave me this shocked look and his eyes widened. After about 4 seconds he said "Whoa, I forgot to turn my eyes off"!!!!
Thank you Tanner for making me laugh....maybe it's called redemption!

October - really?
Wow... we're nearing the end of October and I can't believe it! I just wanted to document some important events as well as some cute pictures! I will apologize now for the quality of the pictures -- they're from my camera phone. It's hard to download pics from my real camera, so these will have to do right now!
First off - This little guy had an out patient hospital procedure at the beginning of the month...Not such a fun thing -- glad to have it over with. He had an endoscopy/colonoscopy and was put out with an i.v. sedation. Poor thing was sooo worried about going to "sleep" and if he'd feel the tube going down his throat. (I'd be worried too so I can't blame him). The night before as I was putting him to bed, he just cried and cried because he was so scared. I gathered the boys and we had a family prayer. Afterwards I watched Tanner and Gabe give him hugs and comfort him. It was a tender moment to witness. (Unfortunately Adam wasn't home). He asked if Dad could give him a blessing in the morning and he did. Caden did great through the whole thing! Of course he was nervous when he learned he had to get an i.v., but he was strong! We're glad to have some answers from all of this and hoping his little tummy will feel better soon!
On the 8th of October, this little girl turned 7 months!! This was the best pic I could get of her at the time...She is really growing up! :( She's still a lot of fun, very popular at our house, and has lots of brothers and parents who adore her!
And a picture from the other night.... I couldn't help but laugh when I saw these two. As you probably already know, Tanner has a very creative imagination that doesn't stop! I love it! I walked into the family room the other night and this is what I saw!! Tan's idea of course.. He had jimmy rigged a light helmet with the help of some scotch tape! I just stopped and starred and laughed! I'm thinking his great inventions will take him places someday!

Funny one on Tanner
(Warning... long story for family history documentation purposes) So yesterday was our primary program. I was sitting up behind the Sacrament table with my class, and Tanner was sitting in the pews with his class. His teachers were sitting behind him and there was an 11 year old girl sitting next to him. If I leaned over as far as I could, I could catch a glimpse of his face as I tried not to squish the man I was sitting next to. It was a long hour and a half. No crayons, no games, no treats. The kids were bored. I would check on Tanner here and there, and every time I did, he seemed to be doing ok -- sometimes he was turned around facing the congregation, but I figured that's better than talking to his neighbor. About half way through the program, I glanced at the side pews in front of me and noticed that about the 6th pew back, these people were wiping tears from their eyes. I glanced at their daughter wondering if she had said something tender/special/heart warming, but that didn't seem to be the case. All the adults on the 6th pew were not only wiping the tears, they were laughing hilariously hard. What could be so funny I thought? We finally got through the remainder of the forever long program and rushed the kiddos off to primary to sit for another 2 hours! As I proceeded down the isle to get to the primary room, a mom coming towards me says, your son is hilarious -- we couldn't help but laugh at all the crazy faces he was making during the program! I'm thinking who Gabe or Tanner? Oh your middle one! Really, I didn't even see him. Oh yeah, she says....he had a couple of rows laughing. Oh man, I thought. I didn't even see him doing anything. Had I known......
So we get to primary and Tanner tells me that he got a pocket full of candy and some gum from the 11 yr old girl he was sitting by. She supposedly bribed him with the loot if he behaved well. At this point I'm thinking behaved well??? Was she even watching him?
As I proceed out of primary another mom makes another comment to me about how funny Tanner was. All the silly faces he was pulling, the cross eyes, the bubble blowing. Bubble blowing? He had gum DURING Sacrament meeting? Oh great! Yeah, she said, he would blow a big bubble and cross his eyes and hold it as long as he could -- it was hillarious. Oh man... had I only known.
As Adam and I got in the car, we compared comments with each other as to what he and I had heard from other people. Adam just laughed. I didn't know what to think. We pull up to the red stop light and the van next to us rolls their window down and tells us how funny Tanner was during Sacrament meeting and that he should sign up for the upcoming primary talent show! Lovely.
My visiting teachers show up this morning and one of them asks me if I had heard about Tanner's little show yesterday! (she's a counselor in the primary) Her daughter and friend sitting on the 4th side pew and couldn't stop laughing either. The mom (my vt) said, where were his teachers? The daughter replied, Oh mom, he wasn't being bad, he was just bored!!
So this morning I emailed the friend whose row was crying and laughing and I apologized to her for the disruption Tanner caused. She wrote me back saying, really, it was actually great because we had some non-member and inactive family members with us that usually don't like to go to church, but after we left church yesterday, they said it was awesome and so worth coming!! So I guess I have to hand it to Tanner for helping them feel welcome and enjoying their Sacrament services yesterday. Now, if I only had a picture of that bubblegum, crossed-eyed face!!
