Just some funnies

Last night I was in the office working on the computer when I heard Tanner coming down the stairs telling me he wanted to sleep on the couch because he was having a hard time getting to sleep upstairs because of a certain 3 yr old. Having a hard time believing him, I uttered a silent "whatever" under my breath because I was too tired to go upstairs AGAIN to establish peace. After about 10 minutes I went out in the family room to check on him and I just busted up laughing. Little did I know Tanner had moved the couch so that it was centered right up close to the fireplace. And yes, he had the fireplace on and he was fast asleep!! I guess he knows how to get comfortable!

Today Gabe went to sunbeams and he had a new teacher in a new classroom. This didn't settle with him too well and so he started crying for Adam. Tonight at dinner I was asking Gabe why he cried today in primary. He said in the most serious voice with the cutest influction "I just reeeeeally, reeeeealy, reeeeealy wanted my daddy"! I couldn't help but laugh at how cute he said it!

I just wanted to journal today about these two funnies that make being a mother/parent worth it. Thanks for making me laugh boys!

Tanner to a T

I thought I'd write this funny for future use when I look back and try to remember all the crazy things Tanner did that made me laugh. He is my little "pack rat" and LOVES to load things into something only to unload them. He is famous for putting together some concauction of household items and putting them to a better cause using his creativity. Today it was a luggage strap wrapped around his tiny waist about 3 times to make a tool belt for all of his gadgets. In this picture he has a tape measure clipped onto it. This is only one of many little gadgets this little guy comes up with. I'll go to open a cupboard and I'll find a string or rope wrapped around the hooks which is connected to his motorcycle guy that is rock climbing up my cupboards. It seems he's infatuated with luggage straps. Whenever I have luggage out it's a guarantee that Tanner will be taking the strap, or loading it up and hauling it somewhere. His little brain is so funny. Often times I don't notice all the crazy things he's done until I go to get something only to find out Tanner's been playing with it. Thanks for the laughs Tan!

Tanner's Funny

So I had given Tanner a graham cracker and in the middle of eating it, he says, "Mom, look, it's in the shape of our state!" I looked at him to try to figure out what he was saying, and sure enough, his little graham cracker looked like the state of Idaho! Kudos to Tanner for figuring it out! I got a good laugh out of it! I guess having him play with the United States puzzle pays off!

Oh what do you do while Cades at school? (to the tune of the primary song)!

So today Tanner found some Disney stickers in the junk mail, and while I was putting laundry away he decided to stick them to Gabe's face. Cute, but not comfortable when we had to take them off. This is just a little funny from Tanner -- always making me laugh. From the first picture you can tell that Gabe first spotted me with the camera and then he wants it!

Getting closer.....

Tanner always wants to be taking pictures, so when I'm taking some of him, he wants to take some of me. So today I let him. Who knows..... maybe he'll want to be a photographer some day.

Ok, so he almost got all of our heads in!
