10 minutes of Tanner Trouble

Everyone tells me Tanner is an absolute angel. Even my Chinese teacher who comes for long stretches of time says she'd never seen him upset, he's always happy. She, and everyone else would never believe me if I told her about today... If Hunter hadn't caught it all on camera.

So when Tanner saw Hunter taking pictures, he thought he'd do some picture worthy things. He is the younger child, and does indeed love to show off. So within 10 minutes, here are the things he did.

I need to harness these boys before they get in college. Like I said, this was all under 10 minutes, he knew he was on camera. Apparently, Kodak moments of breaking the rules was worth the consequence for Tanner.

This is Tanner jumping on my bed. The one bed they are not allowed to jump on b/c it's white (and feet bottoms get very BLACK here in China). Something he normally would never do.


Something he hasn't done since we were in Castle Rock, CO.


This is also a no no. He found my "decorator" juggling pin antiques, and tossed them down the wooden stairs. This is when I looked over to see everything else, and see the following pictures in the camera.


Hunter took this picture of Tanner pulling out the drain. He knows he's not allowed to play in showers. Noneless do the following (see below):


And then Hunter took this picture of him emptying the entire bottle of my imported kids shampoo. It had been on the shelf for months, and he'd never touched it until Hunter had the camera.


The after. Imported kids shampoo is so expensive. I honestly debated on how to salvage the liquid gold (I took this picture).


Another one of Hunter's portraits of his little brother. Honestly, how can a kid this cute do so much in such little time??

Afterwards, I asked Hunter "when you saw him doing naughty things, why didn't you tell me, I was right around the corner?!" His response "those things were making Tanner happy" (which interprets to: happy means he'd smile for the pictures). Argh!
