Funny Tanner






Tanner is one funny kid! While we were playing water balloon volleyball with Isaac's fam, Tanner found the balloons and started squeezing them until they broke all over him! He was cracking himself up and laughing so hard. It was the best! I love the sound of him laughing it makes me happy. Being a mother is hard sometimes but totally worth it. We love our little guy!

Family Togetherness






We just spent this last weekend with all of Isaac's brothers and sisters and his parents. What a fun time! Isaac's parents have 8 almost 9 grandsons and no grandaughters so it is pretty rowdy and fun! We went to the temple,had a picnic at Shoshone Falls,played water balloon volleyball,ultimate frisbee,and we ate and ate a ton! I am so grateful for good in-laws that I can get along with,what a blessing. We learned a lot about each other and learned about good communication. We are proud to be Batemans!

Summer time is fun time







We love going to the park! Tanner is evil kenevil and the energizer bunny all in one! He is so fun and we love how he is increasing his vocabulary everyday. This time at the park we got to bring daddy because he got off work at a decent time for once. Tanner loves his daddy, they have so much fun together. It is amazing how much we love him! We would go to the park everyday if we could!

Adventure






Jana is standing over me with a weapon of mass destruction making me blogg for the very first time. Welcome to the blogging world Isaac!!! Actually, I wanted to share with you our most recent adventure. We had the opprotunity to take Tanner, along with Janas' parents,to the Ice Cave in Shoshone about an hour north of Twin Falls. We went on a tour that lasted about 45 minutes and learned that when it was discovered they mined it for ice and the 23 soloons in Shoshone claimed they had the coldest beer this side of the Mississippi. Those of you who haven't been to Idaho may not know that most of the state is a desert. Anyways, out in the desert of Shoshone as we began our tour it was about 100 degrees outside and as we approched thentrance of the cave it begins to become noticably cooler. There a reason the tour guide recommends a jacket. When you enter the cave it becomes a frostbitting 27 degrees!!! Brrrr!!! It is facinatig how nature has formed such a wonder. The ice cave was amazing. If you ever have the opportunity to go to the Ice Cave we highly endorse it.

Funny Target Story


The other day Tanner and I were at Target(my second home) and Tanner was done with shopping(you moms know what I am talking about)so I got a single serve cereal box and opened it before we bought it and let Tanner munch so we could continue going down every aisle. It worked, Tanner was happy for the rest of the time. When we went to checkout, I put the half-eaten cereal box on the counter so we could purchase it. The high school kid that was ringing us up said "Uh this box is half-empty" so I said very sarcastically, "Really? I like to think of it as half-full, but I better get a new one because I don't want to get ripped off." The poor kid didn't know what to think. I thought it was pretty funny and it got me thinking about the funny things I do now as a mom that I never did before. I used to be cool, but now I am a mom who picks my kid's nose,worries if he gets enough veggies, and shoots for an 8:30 bedtime. This is the good life
