I have attempted more than several times to upload some pictures from the holiday's onto this blog. For some reason it hates me. So for now you are stuck with my writing until I can figure it out.

Funny story, we thought we lost like 6 pacifiers in a matter of a couple of days. I know I can be forgetful, not so much Andy, but still. Andy was home with Tanner before I got home from work, and preceded to tell him they were going to look for the pacifiers and find them. Tanner shrugged his shoulders and went to the edge of the stairs. Andy picked him up, brought him to the living room, and said, "No Tanner we are going to look for your pacifiers, where are they?" Tanner did the same thing. So, Andy took him upstairs, let him down, he then went into his room, into his closet, into his organizer....and AHAHA there were 2 pacifiers! He was hiding them from us, but knew exactly where they were!

We are trekking along here in Kansas City, aka Antartica. It is slowly starting to warm up, and the 12+ inches of snow is not going anywhere in the near future. I am 3 1/2 months along in my pregnancy, and over morning/all day sickness. I am also getting a tiny bit more energy to run after Tanner.

In copying one of my best friends in her post I would like to share with you what Tanner says at 1 1/2years old (as of yesterday!). He loves to say, "Elmo, Cookie, Big Bird, Mommma, Daddy, bye-bye, Papa, uh-oh, more, basketball, football, thank you, Grandma, Dustin, Katie, pancake...." Of course none of the words sound exactly like that...for instance basketball is more like "bah ball". Every week he is gaining words and communication skills. We are loving it.

I will try the pictures again, until then, stay warm....
