Summer Fun

We've been having lots of fun this summer. The boys are both getting so big and its fun to watch them play together and get to do more stuff with them.
Tanner just went for his 15 month check up. He weighs 22 lb and is 97% for height and 16% for weight. Guess he's going to be tall and skinny just like his brother! Tanner is a little boy and not a baby anymore. He's talking a lot earlier than Treyden did and will say a lot of words like: uh-oh, momma, dad, please, thank you, cheese, up, stuck, bye-bye. He loves fruit snacks and otter pops. He also loves driving his car around outside, and reading books. He follows Treyden everywhere. They have a love/hate relationship.
Treyden has grown up so much this summer! He's finally talking quite a bit, and in sentences. He loves to be outside: building "castles" in the sandbox, riding his bike, pulling things with his rope, and climbing and jumping off of anything he can find. He jumped off the top of his 5 foot jungle gym yesterday, no hesitation. I have a feeling there are stitches in his future. He is observant of everything, and does not forget anything. You can't make empty promises with him.
They are such fun boys, and we have loved doing things with them this summer. Here are a few more recent pictures of the boys.

Tanner - 15 months old




Treyden "helping" husk corn from our garden. He LOVES corn on the cob!

Both boys love to help their dad! They follow him everywhere!

My attempt to take pictures of the two of them together. They were not very copperative.


Treyden - 2 1/2 years old

Enjoying the warm summer days!

Yes, this is my two year old rappelling down a cliff with his dad. This has been Andy's new passion this summer. We've done quite a bit of it, and like everything else, Treyden is just like his dad...he LOVES it! He went down an 80 foot cliff the first time, and laughed and smiled the whole time. Mom, on the other hand, was a little nervous watching him down below. (Disclaimer: he does have a full body harness on and always goes tandem with Andy, so no calls to child services please)

I love all your pictures, especially the one with the boys "helping" Andy mow the lawn. Looking forward to seeing you guys in week!
