I dont know how Tanner is going to react...this is the mask we bought him...I know it looks like it covers his mouth but it doesn't. There is even room for his binky if he so desires. Scott still has to draw on it. He really doesnt need the mask, but since the weather is warming up...yes you heard me right, warming up he probably wont wear the hood to his costume. Either way its okay, he'll be cute as always. I still have to figure out exactly how I'm doing my costume...Scott is so excited. I can't wait for Tanner to be old enough to get excited and pick out his own costume. I know, I know, one day I'm whining about him growing up too fast and now I'm saying I can't wait....go ahead and say it "Make up your mind woman!" I have to try and study tonight. Our teacher scheduled our test for Wed. not caring that some of us have kids we want to take out. So I have to get tomorrow's studying done today. Its going to be bit hard since my masked baby has been extremely clingy since I got home
and no one but mommy can sooth him. When I got home he had only been awake 2 hours and he crawled up in my lap and went back to sleep. He took a 2 hour nap. Very unusual for my child. As you can see in this last picture he had been crying, and then getting into something he shouldn't be...the computer. He makes the funniest faces when he get's caught. In other Tanner news...I did mention the Chicken Noodle song a little while back didnt I? Well my sister sent it to me so I can play it for him, and yesterday I played it and it was saying"let it rain, and clear it out..." and my young 'un goes, "Let it rain...let it rain." Oh my. I can just see it now, he's going to learn the Chicken Noodle song before he learns his ABC's.
So I got invited to this party, by Ali....I am sorry it took me so long to do it. But I did make the Oct mark. This party is kinda like the MeMe's we pass around except for filling out a form, you post a pic of you right now....I took this one right before I left for school this morning. SO I kinda cheated. I made sure I had make up on. So I'm inviting (tagging) the following people to come as you are....
Beck,
Mir,
Mandy ,
Tonya ,
Okay girls have at it....and come as you are.....
Okay after I promised pictures a few days ago here it is, our new bathroom floor. Isn't it pretty. Scott finished it Friday. We put off painting until next week. I'm so glad we got this done. I swear it feel great to walk in there and not have to worry about falling through the floor. Sounds funny yes I know but its true. The floor was awful. Well my parents came down this weekend. Which is great like always. We went to the mall and out to eat. I offically started my Christmas shopping. I bought my first present. Wooo Whoooo!! ONLY 100 more to go. After shopping we went to dinner at Logan's SteakHouse. We had a good time. While we were at the mall they were having a birthday party at build a bear (can you imagin what that cost) and the big build a bear was there so Tanner got his picture made with it....kinda
He wasnt too sure about him. I dont know why. He's not normally stand offish around things like this, but he was extra clingy yesterday. I think he knew Auntil Kristi was going home. He misses her when she's gone. He just doesnt quite understand yet that she only comes down to visit. We didnt really do too much of anything else. We had a pretty laid back weekend. We did rent some movies.....Monster House, Click, and An American Haunting...all three really good. I'm going to have to buy Click and An American Haunting. I love scary movies. Today mom, dad, and Kris left way before we woke up. They never want to wake us up so we dont get to say good bye, so I got up and cleaned, washed clothes, and talked to Beck for a little while. I finally woke Scott up and he carved out pumpkin we got at the pumpkin patch. We waited awhile because last year it rotted so fast it barely made it to Halloween. Scott loves to carve pumpkins. Halloween is his favorite "holiday" if you can call it that. He did an awesome job if I say so myself. Tanner kept trying to sit down with him and help him carve. He didn't understand that he couldnt help daddy. My little monster has been a
awesome today. He has played, took a long nap and now he's watching his Disney Channel. After I finish this I'm going to sit down and color with him. We've realized we have to kind of control his crayon use. He gets one, and when he gives it back he can have another one...if we dont all the crayons go missing...I bought him another box yesterday. That make box 4. After this I give up. When we decided to move I see us finding 100s of crayons hidden in one spot. Or if we dont find them whoever buys our house will. Okay I'm off. Its almost dinner time and I'm going to spend some time with my little artist before I start studying again. Mid terms are coming up quick. Check back later, who knows I may post again...
So I wasn't sure if I was going to post about this or not, but I decided what the hell. Well I have been extremely tired this past week, so I was a couple days late so I took a pregnancy test. It came back positive. Yep. I was so excited this time. It was early in the morning so I didn't wake up Scott. When I got home from school I took another one and it said positive clear as day, so I told him. And he was happy. So happy in fact that he told all his friends at work. Well for some reason I took a 3rd test (a different brand) and it came back negative. I was like huh? So I took a 4th test...it came back negative. Now I was really like what the hell? So I went and had a blood test done, and guess what? I'm not pregnant. I couldn't believe it. I always heard false positives were rare. That you were more likely to get a false negative. The girls at the lab were baffled too. So the conclusion was that brand of test was defective. Which really sucks. I was so excited. So I'm not sure where that leaves us now. I don't know if we're going to start trying or just wait. Personally I want to try again...we'll we weren't really trying this time. I've been pretty down all day. I just have to remind myself that no matter what happens I have perfect little boy already, and that's all that matters.
We are another month closer to the big "2"! Oh my goodness. It seems time is just flying by. And it seems like he aged more than a month. If that makes any kind of sence? This past month we have had a vocabulary surge. I mean out of nowhere he is saying alsorts of things. He knows that cows "Moo" and birds "tweet". He can also say Nose, eyes, and mouth. I know this because I heard him point to them on his pumpkin and say it. (That little terd. I try so hard to get him to say it to me...and he says it to a pumpkin)
He loves to dance and sing. Of course he has not kind of rythm but he sure tries poor guy. There is this stupied song out called "Chicken Noodle Soup" and there is a little dance to it. Well my sister thought it would be funny to teach it to Tanner. SO know he walks around doing "let it rain, and wipe it out" if I could describe it for you I would....I will try to catch it on video. Its an annoying song, but he's too cute trying to do the dance. He's doing so much now it's hard for me to think. His favorite word is still "Mama" but he says it like a big boy now. He is such a joy to have around. He makes my days so much more bright. He wakes up in a good mood and he's ready to get up and dance. (as is our morning ritual. Clean butt, milk, and then dance...he wont eat until we dance). Its every morning. When everyone is asleep. 
Which is exactly how I like it. (Sighs). I cant believe in 2 short months my baby is going to be a little man. While I'm excited about all the new stuff we can do together, and all the new things he will learn. I'm kinda depressed, because I know the days of "Awwww Moooom!" when I give him a hug or a kiss are coming soon. Sooner than I want. I want to enjoy this age just a bit longer. Where is kind of independant but still loves to cuddle with and gives me kisses. I feel like parents somehow get the short end of the stick during these first few years. Dont you agree?
There you go, a little bit of sign fun. Hope you got a laugh out of it.
SO of course my day started with school. Where I had to take a test, (I got a B). I skipped my last class and went home. Then we went and got both of my guys hair cuts.
Then we took Tanner to the pumpkin patch (thanks Mir) by the way mark your calenders, I probably wont post a picture with me in again for awhile...
This is the pumpkin Tanner picked, after looking at them all for 30 mins.
One picture he actually sat still for. He ran all over that pumpkin patch the whole time we were there. It was really hard to get pics of him.
Then we decided to take Toot to Chuck E. Cheese. The last time we went he didnt really enjoy it. There were to many people but he loved it this time. 
We found out that he love Wack-a-Mole. I think he played it like 10 times. We might have invest in it for Christmas.
Here he is, taking a break and grubbin' on some pizza. He had to get his energy up to play some more. After Chuck E. Cheese, we went to Barnes and Nobles to get my Medical Dictionary for class. Then we headed to my in laws. On the way this happened....
Agghhh!! Let me say how insane I think it is that NO ONE has this thing. I can not find one store in our area that has it. I cant find one online store that has it. Besides ebay where they are asking anywhere from 75$ to 800$. Are they crazy? How can a company like Fisher Price not make enough of these things? They knew it would be huge...hello. Make more, sell more? I was hoping to find one for Tanner for his birthday. He loves Elmo. He has the one that sings "Shout" he carries it all over the house with him. I'm at a loss of what to get my child. Not only for his birthday but for Christmas too. His grandparents are getting him all the cool stuff...I dont know. I dont want to wait until the last minute. Because the holiday season is creeping up fast. I want to be done by Thanksgiving if possible. Has anyone seen the Elmo's anywhere I might not have looked?
So I've been playing with my new camera today, and I got this picture. I just love it and had to share. He looks so innocent even though he is really up to no good. He was climbing on the back of a chair to flick the light switch...
And here is the first picture with my new camera. Wooo Whoooo!!! I haven't really played with it much there is a lot going on. My parents are here and so are Scott's. The men have been working on putting down a whole new floor is our guest bathroom...dont worry I have pics I just have do post with it. It was a lot worse than we thought so they probably arent going to finish tonight. BUT they have made lots of progress. Well I just wanted to let everyone know I was still alive. Just very busy. I will take some time tomorrow to do full post with more pics. So until later.
