Tanner's first cereal

We started Tanner on cereal today after seeing Dr. Bollier. It seems that we can feed Tanner over 7 ounces and in a couple of hours he is hungry again, so he thought that maybe starting him on cereal would help. He seemed to really like it! Thank goodness!! Here are a couple pictures of Tanner's first taste of cereal and then just for fun a couple pictures of Teeghun's first taste of cereal...







Teeghun's first taste of cereal :)(Teeghun started cereal on August 8th, so it was a bit earlier for Tanner)




Memorial Day Weekend

I love long weekends, especially long weekends with weather as beautiful as we had this weekend! We spent a lot of time outside this weekend...here are some pictures from this weekend...

First off...Tanner discovered that he has a tongue on Friday. He was just cracking us up (and himself) on Friday night sticking out his tongue.





We spent time at the zoo again last weekend...Teeghun loves to ride the pony's



Back at Uncle Drew & Aunt Trisha's visiting the "neigh neigh's"



GG & Teeghun visiting the horses


Sunday at Grandpa Ray's Pond


Mommy & Teeghun at Grandpa Ray's Pond


Sunday we tried sparklers for the first time...he liked it...for a while...then mommy screamed cause she was afraid that he was going to get burned and he decided that he didn't want to try anymore.


Memaw asked Teeghun if he could stand on one foot, just that quickly he went over and sat down on the step and lifted up one foot...everyone just lost it!!! Such an entertainer!!


Teeghun (26 months), Tanner (3 months), Ellee (9 days)

3 months does make a difference

We had a great weekend and I will post more pictures later but for now here is one of Tanner and Ellee taken yesterday. Tanner looks like he should be about six months old instead of just three months old!!!

Great, Great Aunt Sharon

My Great Aunt Sharon was up from Florida the beginning of May for a surprise visit. She got to meet Tanner while she was here and read books to Teeghun.

She keeps telling me that I need to post more pictures of Tanner so I am including a couple of Tanner in this post just for her :)

Power Wheel Tractor

Friday while out scoping bargains at garage sales I found this Power Wheel John Deere Tractor...I grabbed it up and brought it home. We had an insanely busy weekend (see post below) and so I hadn't even gotten to show it to Teeghun yet. Tonight we got it out and he was a bit unsure at first but once he got it going he was all over the back yard...until the battery went dead...YEAH, I DIDN'T CHARGE THE BATTERY WHEN I BROUGHT IT HOME!! DUH!!

Here are some pictures and video of him enjoying his first Power Wheel toy!!

If it isn't raining Teeghun thinks that we should be outside!! Here are a couple pics taken last week while the weather was nice :)




I AM AN AUNT!!

My "baby" brother Andy (affectionally know to some as "Drew") and his lovely wife Trisha had a their first baby on Saturday. Ellee Doreen Bills was born Saturday, May 17th (I won the lotto by the way :) at 2:31pm, she weighed in at 7 pounds 14 ounces and was 22 inches long...and she has more hair than Teeghun or Tanner had when they were born!

Here are some pictures captured Sunday...some of them aren't the greatest, I promise to get better ones soon!!

Teeghun LOVED Ellee...he held her longer than he ever holds Tanner

Jean Miller

Tuesday night we said good-bye to a special lady, my mother-in-law Wanda Jean Miller. Jean fought a battle with cancer for almost 5 years (with a brief remission). She was a fighter and never gave up, she was always willing to try anything that they asked her to in an effort to beat the cancer.

Tuesday night she finally beat the cancer! At 7:10pm Jean was looking upon the face of Jesus and what an amazing time for the family who had gathered to say good-bye to watch her leave this earthly home for what awaited her in Heaven. It will be a glorious Mother's Day for Jean as she was reunited with her mother who passed away many years ago!

Good-Bye Jean! You will be missed but not forgotten!!!
