One year and 2 weeks


 Tanner has be ONE for two weeks now. You never expect a lot of change after they turn one but Tanner is starting to pick up on A LOT of new things!



  • He waves hello and goodbye
  • Signs "all done" and occasionally "more"
  • Says: up, go, mama, dada, nana, baba, meow(like a cat) but he kind of says it backwards, ruff(when he sees a dog)
  • He knows what "light" means and looks up when you ask him
  • he's getting better at listening when I say "uh-uh, no no, out" when I don't want him in something/doing something/going  somewhere
  • he is starting to understand and really play with his toys
  • He weighs 22.3lbs (65%) height 30.25" (67%) head 18.75" (89%) at 12 months old
We are having issues with Tanner drinking milk so this whole "weaning" off a bottle hasn't been happening. He is so stubborn and won't drink milk and/or formula out of a sippy. He drinks juice and water just fine out of one though. I am slowly mixing milk in with his bottles and not warming them in hopes that he will get used to this stuff. I am so over washing bottles! I have never liked putting them in the dishwasher like I do with sippys so I hand wash and microwave sterilize them regularly.I even have the sippy tops that go on his bottles and he just looks at me like I'm crazy when I hand it to him. I tried adding a bit of nesquik to his milk at dinner last night and he just threw it on the floor. He eats dairy with no issues, it's just plain old milk that causes him to spit up...a lot. It is not fun.

Kenzie is the same old Kenzie, always pushing things. I am wanting to start her in dance and/or gymnastics this fall to give her something to do. We'll see how that turns out.

We are all excited to be going to the San Diego Zoo at the end of the month, we are making a long weekend out of it. We want to try and see some friends of ours and go to the beach as well.
