Griffin 4 1/2

 Still love this little guy so much... even though he's perfecting the art of being an annoying little pesky brother. He's good at the "hit and run" move where he runs by and whaps something off the girls' lap or out of their hands. It drives them crazy.
 This is about as close as he gets to the pool. On his daring days he'll walk all the way around the spa without holding onto the pool edge. Sometimes he reverses directions and walks the other way.
 We moved back to California in October and have been staying at my parent's house until we bought/fixed up a house in the Bay Area. Spencer's family lives in the same town as my family so we were able to see them a lot. Griffin went to Grandma Judy's preschool from Oct through graduation. Here he is on the graduation stage sitting back in his lounge chair. He loves Gracie so much- she's on his left. The little painted figure on the wall is his.

 Grandma Judy made each child a photo book with pictures from the school year. It's the cutest thing ever and he sits like this at home flipping through each page over and over.

 Mrs. Shannon was his other teacher.

 Griffin's always stealing glances at me to see if I approve or disapprove of what he's doing. I love seeing his little grin.

 He loves "softie blankie" and goes to get it out of his room when it's getting close to bedtime. He wears it like a cape.
 Easter was a success and the Target clearance gun was a smashing success. It's noisy and obnoxious but he loves it.
 Griffin+sticks= BFF

Griffin loves to smile, be noisy, stomp around the house, play buccaneers with daddy, help with the yard, bake with grandma, read read read tons of books, go to the park/McDonalds/Costco, his church teacher, his mama, his softie blankie and LEGOs.
He gives me random hugs and kisses during the day.
right now: he's sleeping on his Cars sleeping bag with softie blankie. If it gets to be 7:30 and no one's put him to bed he starts asking to be carried upstairs and put to bed.

Allie, I love all the new posts! It makes me feel like I'm somewhat connected to these kids. We miss you all so much!
