Teancum's First Birthday!

Yesterday, Tean turned one! Boy, does time sure fly! We had a birthday party for his birthday and invited some friends. Since it was also Jake's brother's birthday on the same day, we invited him and he had some cake too. Tean enjoyed his presents, and got mad at me when I took him away from his presents to go eat cake. Once he tasted the cake, he didn't mind. Tean didn't want to blow out his candle. He tried, but didn't have enough air, so I had to help him a little bit(the cake Tean got to dive into)He was a little hesitant at first to try the cake, but once he got a taste of it, he thought it was great that he could eat all he wanted. wondering if he could eat the ball. Yes, the ball was edibleWe love Tean so much and we are so glad he came to our family. He makes us laugh all the time. In his first year, Tean has learned so much. He crawls like a pro (so much so that he hates to walk with us holding our hands). He loves to feed himself (sometimes he'll spit out what I put in his mouth, just so he can put it in himself). He has taken a few steps by himself and he can stand by himself, even though sometimes he gets scared and sits down. He can say a few words, and mimics us a lot. He smiles a lot and makes funny faces. Tean loves to play with balls and cars. He'll even make car sounds when he plays with them. He's so much fun to have around!

Getting into trouble

Crazy Tean!
The other day I found Tean, crawling behind our couches. He always tries to get into the smallest places possible, and he'll get mad if he can't get through. (Sorry his eyes are closed in most of the pictures. Tean does this really cute cheesy grin, but when he does it, he squints his eyes.)

We got a dog!

Tean LOVES dogs. When ever we go to Jake's parent's house, Tean thinks that their dog is so funny. So we decided to get a dog for Tean. We didn't want one that shedded, so we decided we wanted a schnauzer. We looked at a lot of places, but they were all a lot of money. When we were in Provo this last weekend, we decided to go to the humane society down their and look at their dogs. Luckily for us, they had a schnauzer, so we got her. Her name is Chloe. She is very mild mannered. She was really afraid of us at first, but she is getting used to us. Tean loves her, except we are having to teach him to be soft with the dog. I think she'll be a great dog.

Sledding!

Today we went sledding. It was Tean's first time sledding. He did not enjoy it very much. I took him down once and he cried most of the way down. He spent most of the time with his grandma in the car. He had a great time in the car. Everyone else had a lot of fun, even though we had to walk back up the hill after we went down instead of having a car pick us up and bring us up. It was cold, but great hill for sledding!

Spaghetti and Tean




Tean loves his spaghetti!
