"God doesn't give children with special needs to strong people; He gives children with special needs to ordinary, weak people and then gives them strength. Raising a child with special needs doesn't take a special family, it makes a special family."

Pay Attention......


Tanner loves his bath time!  He likes to stay in the tub until the water starts to get cold, and sometimes until the water is all drained out.  He also loves bubble baths.  He loves to play, and dump water out of a cup. 
On this particular day I was sitting by the tub reading and taking a video of him playing.  Not paying enough attention apparently....because the little Stinker.... dumped a whole cup of water over the tub edge right on me!

Enjoy the drama!

Mickey......

Tanner has always had an obsession with Mickey Mouse.  Probably since he was around 9 to 10 months old. Recently he has wanted to take mickey everywhere!  In the car, in his bed, at the table, on the couch, right by his toys.... you get the idea.....
He even wants to give mickey rides in his mobile stander!  Now that Tanner is stronger, he doesn't need the top strap anymore, so I looped it around the front and strapped mickey in!  
Needless to say, Tanner loved it!

Getting ready for cruising!

Giving mickey a tour of the house!


Tanner loves his Mickey!


And he loves giving rides too!  

The biggest perk about this is that Tanner is willing to stay in the stander for longer periods of time, and that makes for one happy mama!

Say Cheese

The other day Tanner was playing with Daddy's american express card, and I couldn't quite figure out what he was doing until I watched this video again!  He is taking pictures, and saying "cheese" over and over!



He is for sure my little "Cheezer" 

Phone

Tanner really loves cell phones!  He would play with mine or his Dad's all day if we would let him! Another thing that he really likes to do is call Dad at work.  

Obsession

All I can say is that we watched parts of Cars at least every other day for about 2 months!  I think I've got the whole thing memorized!  Tanner is obsessed I tell you!


He was even trying to look like a car. I guess the blanket is supposed to be the hood?


No matter, he thought it was a great idea!


And then along came........ 


Buzz!  Ya, you guessed it!  Another obsession!  Some days the first thing I hear in the morning when Tanner wakes is "Buzz, Buzz, Woody, Buzz"

He laughs at all the funny parts and is really getting into humorous things! 


But when its time to turn it off - Tanner is one unhappy guy!


Please Mom.... I want to watch it again!  

So Big

I really can't get over how big Tanner is getting!  He looks so much like a boy (no baby) when he wears a hat!  He is wearing one of my hats!





Doesn't he look so big?

Hap Burday

Tanner loves the Happy Birthday song!  He has always liked it!  He has recently started singing it at least 2-3 times daily.  Little stinker won't ever look at the camera while singing it, but it's still so cute!
