Kindergarten!

Our little man started kindergarten today, and he was thrilled! He woke up, got dressed, and also colored several pictures for his teachers all by 6:20. And he still had energy to do a little dancing before we left!

Tomorrow Tanner starts kindergarten

We're really excited and sad at the same time. On this night that seems so significant to us, this is Tanner's prayer:

"Thank you for you God, thank you for the letter 'R', thank you for trees, thank you for pineapples because they're one of my favorite fruits. Amen."

Just another night for him. :)

oh sparkle

We have a proud boy. On Sunday
Sparkle graduated from her first puppy class.

A few days later she consumed part of Brandon's headphone wires. We are still baffled how she had access to them. She was in her crate. The headphones were on the nightstand. Maybe she has go go gadget paws. Who knows? She's a sneaky little booger! Thankfully, after taking her to the vet for X-rays, all is well and she is expected to make a full recovery from her little "snack". And we will now make sure there is a five foot radius around her cage so she can't pull anything else in there for a midnight snack! Clearly we still have some training to do.

tanner's critique

I saw this video posted on facebook and decided to view it. Tanner watched it with me and these were his thoughts:
"Where is this? Is that at a restaurant? That baby is pretty good, but if that's at a restaurant, this is totally inappropriate!"

arbini's Posterous

In 2005, our world got a little bit noisier and a whole lot more amazing, when our son, Tanner was born. Eventually he started saying hilarious and adorable things and we wrote them down in a book and included them in our weekly "Happy Friday" emails to family and friends. Then we thought it would be fun to have an online record of his little quotes and quips. His favorite question around that time was "What's that noise?" hence the title of our blog. 2007 brought another noisemaker to our family in the form of our spunky little girl, Addison. She was born screaming, so we knew she would fit right in. We hope you find as much amusement as we do in the constant noise that seems to be the norm in our home.
