Tanner Robert

2 years ago today this amazing new person came into our family and changed us forever. He entered this world ready to make his mark and has made this family so much more than I ever thought was possible. When I was pregnant with Tanner, I remember crying in poor Judy's office at least once a week. I was so nervous and scared that my relationship would change with Tristen because I wouldnt be able to spend as much time with him. Would he be mad at us for not being the one and only baby in our lives? I was nervous for change.




And what a change we had. Everything changed. We now had this amazing little baby that added so much to each of us and I cant imagine life before him. I feel like we must of been really bored before Tanner. I mean 1 kid?! Tristen was like our little side kick and tag along. 2 years ago today we started our production line.

Tristen and Tanner have an incredible bond, they have this certain laugh that they only do when they are together. It's a deep laugh and it makes you smile instantly. Tanner has made Thomas even more protective than he was with Tristen at 2. Makes sense, Tanner is much wilder. and I think Thomas thinks Tanner is gonna be the crazy one out of the two boys. again, makes sense. Those boys are so alike and yet very different. I wouldnt want it any other way.

To me Tanner brought something to our family that we didnt know was missing. He was our missing piece. He melts my heart with his expressions and can make me want to give him anything in the world to NOT look at me with that lower lip up and those sad puppy dog eyes. His pout face is killer. He also makes me look at things different. Tristens is SIX, and I wonder daily where 6 years went so I have really learned to soak it up as it's happening. Even in all the craziness I try to *hold on to these moments as they pass*

Happy 2nd Birthday my sweet Prince, you have made me such a happy mom.
