George the Snake

We went down to Gunnison to help with the hay (Brian helped and Tanner and I were just along for the ride). Toward the end of the day Brian found a baby blow snake. The boys were both in love with it, Tanner more so if he could look at it, but not touch it. So we found a bucket that was nearly as tall as Tanner and put the "nake" in it. Tanner carrried the thing all over the place. He showed it to Grandpa and brought it in Grandma's house to show her and Aunt Cindy,( there it was named George). Brian was sure that it needed to come home with us, so while he was distracted by food and T.V., Cindy helped me convince Tanner that George needed to go back home to his mommy and daddy. With a little whimper from Tanner the "nake" was released. Thank Goodness!

Big Boy Bed

So I have really been dreading Tanner's move to a toddler bed. I was sure he would take some time to adjust to it, by getting up in the night two or three times, kicking at his door, and or refusing to take his naps. What was I going to do with no sleep at night and no break during the day (I know life is pretty tough with one kid). Anyway after the move we converted his crib to a toddler bed and.... he loves it! He doesn't get out of it unless we come and get him out. He also runs in it when it is time to go to bed or take a nap. A couple of days ago he shut himself in his room, when I went to check up on him he was in his bed just chilling. Up next: potty training!

Graduation

Yipeee no more school!!!

I know I am really late at posting this blog, but with the move and waiting to get our internet set up I have just gotten around to it. We went to B's graduation on June 1st. I was great to see him walk across the stage and get his diploma (mostly because it meant that we are done with school and school loans). In case it wasn't really obvious to you all before now, Brian really hates anything formal, so getting dressed up for graduation and attending it was a big sacrafice. It was also nice to have his parents come in for the weekend. Now that we are mostly settled into our house he has been working like a dog trying to get all of the paper work finished and set up so that he will be ready to take over the practice on July 1st.

After graduation Tanner just couldn't focus enough to look at the camera.
