Tanner's friend, Chloe, turned 3 in November and we had a great time at her party. The party was at our friends Christel and Ross's house, and the decorations were awesome! Christel did a "Brown Bear" theme and there were animals from the book all over. There were live goldfish on the tables and the kids did a craft project where they created pages that looked like they belonged in the book. Tanner's other friend, Addison, had her 1st birthday party on the same day but I left my camera in the car by accident so I don't have any pictures from it. That day was the day that Haley and Jason had to go to their birth class at the hospital so we had Sofia with us too. We had a great time and Tanner and Sofi had fun spending the day together.


Tanner loves hitting pinatas! She talks about it for days after the party is over!

I liked this picture of Channing coming down the slide.

Tanner LOVED the art project!

Tanner loves playing with play-doh these days. I snapped a few pictures of her making a "castle". It is so interesting to me to watch her imagination work. A castle is a pretty normal thing to want to make out of play-doh, but the fact that she thinks of these things on her own is so amazing to me! It seems like yesterday that she was a tiny baby and now she is a kid that does so many things for herself and uses her imagination so much!


Sometimes I think her tongue does all of the concentrating for her!

The finished product.....her castle!
