Day13

Tanner had his physical today. The doctor said he is very healthy and strong. He weighs 15.9 pounds. We still don't know his length, by that time Tanner had enough of the doctor and stopped cooperating. He had a slight fever due to teething, he has two top teeth coming in now too. All in all the doctor was very impressed with Tanners health and size, he gave a lot of credit to his nanny. Tanner is also starting to eat more at one time agian. He ate 5 and 6 ounces at his last two feedings.

Good boy Tanner...you eat that formula. We want some chubby legs to squish and eat up. I'll have a big pack of stella doro egg jumbo cookies waiting for you. Your mommy can't say no because she ate many many of those in her day.The breadsticks we'll skip because that's a whole nother story just ask Auntie that one!! Glad your physical went well we don't blame you for being annoyed at the doctor...they love to poke and prod you. I have to go now to the store...I have to return all of the 3 and 6 month clothes your mother insisted you would be wearing.Oh well gives me (and aunt dee dee) something to do while waiting for you to come home. Make sure you give Mommy a hug from all of us and take care of her. We'll see you soon. Love Aunt Annie

Hi Tanner,
Good boy eating that formula. You are growing so big with all of that formula. i will have a big bag of Stella Dora Egg Jumbo cookies waiting for you when you come home. Your Mommy can't say no since she ate many, many of them as a baby!! Chettos ar also good even if they leave your face orange. Your mommy thought it was funny on Benjamin so tell her pay back is fun!! Glad your physical went well. i wouldn't have been patient either after they poked and proded me..then measure me...no way!! Make sure you take care of Mommy and big hugs to both of you. We can't wait for you to come home to us. Please hurry!!!!

Those nannies should be so proud of themselves for taking such pride in their work! Tanner sounds like a gem! Anna

I'm so glad that Tanner is doing well and adjusting to family life. It is so nice to hear that he was well cared for in the orphanage.

I hope everything continues to go smoothly for you!
