Ice skating!

Okay I am sorry about these pictures.. I am so confused!! I have done this 3 times... the pictures are right side up on my computer but on here they keep turning. I know I have been slacking on posting so I thought I had better get something up here. Next post I promise will be about Tanner... 2 about Evan in a row? Odd. Anyway these are pictures of Evan's first skating lessons.. he had a BIG Smile on his face the whole time so we took that as a good sign. He just knows this is a necessary step to play hockey so he is very motivated...





Looks like he is starting to do a bit of a split here



Getting suited up.. ( this is not his doll)

There was quite a bit of this..but he got up quickly




Daddy gets him ready to hit the ice!





The class and teachers you can see Evan is trying it on his own.
Bottom line: he LOVES it.. I get the feeling Tim and I will be logging many more hours in the ice rink in the coming years.
Thanks for stopping in.. sorry I have been so slow with posts

Evan's turn at the Eye Dr.

Well today it was Evan's turn at the eye Dr. It seems we have been seeing eye Dr's a lot lately. :) Evan did great! He sat so still and listen to everything the Dr. said. We learned we will have another child in the house wearing glasses. The Dr. said that Evan is far sighted and will need glasses. He said at this point he might be a little young since he not really reading or anything yet.. so we will see and keep ya posted. He of course just wants glasses.. cause big brother has them.

Speaking of brother...Tanner is not wearing his glasses right now as we sought a 2nd opinion. The 2nd opinion Dr said we needed a 3rd opinion.. so we are off to a Pediatric Opthamologist in a few weeks to see where we are on this whole mess. For now we are patching and not having him wear the glasses to school ( cause he can't see out of them) Parenthood is so Adventurous!!
Well Tanner had a play date with a friend from school and Evan and I went to the eye Dr. and he was so good I took him to lunch with my friend and I, :) It was a great day!
Thanks for stoppin in!

Lite Brite fun and hard work too!

Well in a blast from the past we got a lite brite! The main reason is because it is great vision therapy for Tanner's eye. It is a good exercise for him to do with his patch on. The cool thing about the new lite brite if you don't own one.. is that you get to do pictures on all four sides. Here are some pics of the kids playing with it tonight.

We also got Ker Plunk and that has also been a great family game that both kids can play.









Thanks for stopping in on us!
Much love to all!

Dear Friends



Here is a picture of my dear friends! I was so glad that I got to spend some quality time with Donna. It was nice to have some girl time. Donna had lots of stuff planned for us. We even tried meditation. I really liked it. If I could find a place here I think I would look into doing meditation often. It is okay to laugh at me.. I think my mid 30's has been my road to self dicovery.

Well I only was able to see Melissa briefly. We went for coffee and treats but I was so glad that I got to spend some time with her and catch up.

I have been friends with these 2 since highschool. It is amazing to me how long ago that was but I know how lucky I am to have them in my life.

Thanks friends!

Thanks for stoppin in to visit us.

Much love,

Tammi and the boys~
