Sucked In  

Posted by: Jason, Kelly and Tanner


Well, we have been sucked into myspace!! AAHH!! I remember when it first came out and I was like, it's just another internet dating, so I avoided it.

Well recently I have found out that some of my best friends from B'ham are there and chatting and I'm missing out.

So I have put Jason and I out there now, I do love posting more pictures of Tanner.


It makes me miss everyone even more. I hate we arne't there raising our kids together, Michelle, Julia, Jennifer....but that's life!


Besides our new myspace issue, all is going well. Tanner is now 6 months old. I just can't get over how quickly he's growing up. It's so much fun to watch him learn new things and see things for the first time, it's the most amazing thing I have ever seen.

I got an email from my best friend Missy that I would like to paste to this posting, it is so true! Thanks Missy!!


Before I was a Mom

I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby.

I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.

I never thought about immunizations.

Before I was a Mom - I had never been puked on.

Pooped on.

Chewed on.

Peed on.

I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts.

I slept all night.

Before I was a Mom I never held down a screaming child so doctors could dotests.

Or give shots.

I never looked into teary eyes and cried.

I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin.

I never sat up late hours at night watching a babysleep.

Before I was a Mom I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't wantto put him down.

I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt.

I never knew that something so small could affect mylife so much.

I never knew that I could love someone so much.

I never knew I would love being a Mom.

Before I was a Mom - I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside mybody.

I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby.

I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child.

I didn't know that something so small could make me feelso important an d happy.

Before I was a Mom - I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every10 minutes to make sure all was okay.

I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, theheartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom.

I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before Iwas a Mom.


Is that not awesome???

To all the moms who read my silly blog!!

Fussy Butt  

Posted by: Jason, Kelly and Tanner


Well we now have TWO teeth! We figured as much. Everyone has told us that they normally come in around the same time. We are hoping that was the cause of our Fussy Butt yesterday. Nothing pleased him...and I mean nothing but that stupid pacifier. Which we thought we were giong to try and slowly get rid of. Wow, that was funny on our part. We are torn, do we just go cold turkey and suck it up or do we wait it out longer and then do it later?

Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated!


Other than our little man having the blues all is well in the Pruden House. We are planning another poker night this weekend. We have some people from my school and some from Jason's work. It should be a lot of fun. We had game night with some friends a few weeks ago and that was a lot of fun. We'll have to do that again, make it a monthly event if possible.


My little niece called me Friday night to tell me she made homecoming princess! Are you kidding me? I was so happy for her. She sounded so excited about it, and I couldn't have been happier for her. So Congrats my Doodlebug! Doodlebug is my nickname for her, I have no idea when or how it started but the poor child at even 9 will still answer when I say it, you gotta love that!
One last thing, Tanner LOVES the cats, and I mean loves the cat. His eyes get all big and this huge smile just fills his face. It is just amazing to watch him watch the cats. As you can see in the picture, he would do anything to get his hands on goolaush. Actually goo doesn't really seem to mind him that much, NOW! Just wait in a few months, thankfully the cat is declawed!
Until next time! :)

Tooth  

Posted by: Jason, Kelly and Tanner


Well it happened, we finally got our first tooth! We are so excited, of course now that means he can hurt when he bites. Anyway, Tanner's first tooth finally reared it's head this morning. We could see the swelling and even see the tooth in his gums, but it finally broke free! YEAH!

Daddy was ready to rush home from work this morning to see it but he stayed and figured it wasn't going anywhere, he would see it when he picked him up from the sitter!

So, another milestone hit, we are happy our precious boy is growing!!

Been a while  

Posted by: Jason, Kelly and Tanner

Well, it has been a while since I last posted. We have been so busy. Ok, mostly me studying but time is just flying by.
Jason got a new job at work, YEAH! I am still in law school (I find that impressive myself) and Tanner is doing the norm of making us smile everyday.
We went to the OK state fair last night. Tanner loved it, he didn't cry once, we had to force feed him almost, he would rather look at everything else. We did the Olde Timey pictures (however you spell that). It came out soooo cute! We loved it!

Jason is finished with that house he was working on. He went today to do some last minute landsacping and whatnots. It looks so good. Now if we can get it sold and make some money we'll be doing good!

Tanner is rolling over from his belly to his back like a champ. We felt so lucky b/c he started sleeping through the night at 2 months. UNTIL recently, now he likes to get up about 5 times a night for NO reason except for Mommy to get up and give him his pacifer and roll him back over. Yes we are those terrible parents that allow our baby to sleep on his belly. That's how he slept through the night. Also we have a monitor under his mattress, so if he stops breathing an alarm will sound. Just so you know, it has false alarms and if that won't get you out of bed in half a second I don't know what does. I honestly think I could have ran a marathon not to mention how I man handled Jason out of my way to get to him.
He is also sitting up pretty good on his own. We are just hoping for that crawling to happen any day now!
All in all, he's wonderful and we are loving every minute we spend with him. I can't imagine my life without him.
Well off to you know what...STUDY!
Don't be afraid to post us a comment! :)

Miss you all
