Cheetah has been "taped"

We kept finding Cheetah on the changing table and in the crib. I was talking about it at work one day and a friend told me to put tape upside down in the crib and changing table. This way when she gets up there she will "get taped" and will not want to do it again. Well, we taped everything last week and have been awaiting the day when she "gets taped". It has been pretty funny to hear us talk about it around the house, "honey, did Cheetah get taped today?"... well, the day has come. Mark is not here to enjoy the moment. The boys and I were in Ethan's room cleaning up and Cheetah came in sounding "scratchy"... she sat down and tried to see what she had gotten herself into.... the boys and I sure did enjoy the moment.... (this isn't pet abuse is it?)

Beth and I (and Anna Grace) got to go to the American Heart Association Heart Ball on Saturday night. Good thing they didn't charge the $250 for Anna Grace to come with us. It was a lot of fun to dress up and go out with my beautiful wife. Can't wait until we get to do it again.

Yard Work Tanner Style

Ethan and I spent some time Saturday afternoon working on the curb appeal of our house. Ethan loves to help!!

Parent's Book report

Ashton read Charlotte's Web and then watched the movie. Mom and Dad helped with the book report. Dad performed the technical aspects and Mom performed the creative aspects. WHAT A TEAM EFFORT!!!!

Anna Grace's room almost finished

I have really enjoyed getting her room ready. I never dreamed I would like a pink room. Her room is very soothing, I enjoy just sitting in there.

Baby Shower

I had a very nice shower at Jihan's house. We had a nice time and I was showered with love and lots of nice gifts.

Easter in Texas... you never know what to expect...

When we walked out of the house on Sat. morning to go to church for an easter egg hunt.... IT WAS SNOWING>>> We had a good time. Ethan was too worried about where the bunny was to hunt for eggs.

Anna Grace's Room

Finally, Anna Grace has a painted room. I did the pink top and darker pink bottom last weekend, and the ric rac middle this weekend.... While I was painting, I kept saying, "not bad for someone with a disability"... Ethan would come in to "help" and he would say "that's pretty mom", "wow, good job, Mom"... he was so encouraging. The ric rac was pretty time consuming, but once it was finished, it was worth it. It is really girly!!!

Easter Cookie Making

Last Sat. while Mark was working the boys and I made sugar cookies and decorated them for Easter... We all had a blast
