More excuses?

Yeah, pretty much. 😉

I’ve got plenty more pictures to post (as usual), but it’s been hard to find the time to get them out here (as usual). As a peace offering, though, here’s a shot of Jean and Cole from this past weekend:

Everybody is doing great. McKenna continues to be the world’s best big sister and Cole enjoys flashing his trademark smile whenever he can get a chance. Thankfully, he sleeps through the night more often than not these days and really enjoys playing in his bouncy chair or in his tunnel.

More updates soon. No, honest. I actually mean it this time.

Picture pages, picture pages, lots of fun with picture pages…

First off, Cole’s doing great and we’re trying to remember what a full night’s sleep feels like. 😉 McKenna is enjoying being a big sister and getting Cole’s “trashifier” (pacifier) when he’s really letting us know how he feels about things. :crazy:

Things have been crazy busy around Tanner Manor, but I managed to post a couple new-ish pictures of Cole here to tide you over till I get the latest pictures up. Needless to say, the kid has changed a lot in only a month!

And, believe it or not, I posted a decent chunk o’ pictures of McKenna as well here. Still plenty more where those came from – as usual.

Enjoy!

It’s a boy!

Cole William Tanner decided to show up a bit earlier than expected, considering his due date wasn’t until November 13th. :O He was born today, October 29th, at 5:12 PM (7 pounds 6 ounces and 20 inches tall), and the delivery couldn’t have gone smoother. Mother and child are doing great and are both looking forward to the extra hour of sleep they’ll (in theory 😉 ) be able to enjoy tonight. Father and big sister have both decided that Cole is way cool. 😎

It’s late, but I managed to get a picture or two put up on the site here. Plenty more to come soon. Time for bed…

Could it be? A site update?!

Believe it or not, I’ve actually updated the site a bit. :O

Now that you’ve picked yourself up off the floor, here are today’s subtle differences:

  • Added a link to the picture section on the main page (took me long enough… :confused: )
  • Posted some ultrasounds for “Four” (who should be making his appearance any day now…) here
  • And for those of you who are looking for gift lists, I’ve made ours a little bit easier to find (click on the present on the left-side of the page)

In theory I’ll be posting some more pics of McKenna soon, but you’ve heard that one before… :rolleyes:

Safe and sound

Nothing like a narrowly missed natural disaster to generate a bit o’ activity on this thing. 😉

Just to be safe we headed North to Dallas before Rita made its appearance (and lucked out with a mere 12 hour trip – some folks never made it out of Houston due to the traffic) and it looks like the homestead is none the worse for wear. Can’t say as much for the contents of our fridge and freezer though. No power since Saturday at 1AM so it looks like we’ll be defrosting the deep freeze whether we wanted to or not.

Oh well, better than the alternative, right? 😀
