My 1st Birthday Party

Don't I look like a big boy?!
Me, Mommy, and Daddy about to cut the cake
BeBop and Aunt Cookie painted me an awesome train for my birthday...and check out that cake! I didn't even know cakes could be so cool. They worked hard on it and it paid off!

Playing with my family!

Hi Everyone! I just wanted to write on the blog; now that I'm 1 years old, I have a lot to say! (well, not really - my favorite words are still mama, dada, nana, and baba, but we're going to work on that). Anyway, my grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousin came out to see me for my birthday! I felt so lucky to share my special day with them. They are the best.


Mommy and her favorite baby girl, Jordan. She's pretty cute, isn't she?! (11.11.09)

Jordan and I are climbing at the Garden of the Gods. Our mommies thought we were too little to rock climb, but I guess they forgot that I am 1 years old and therefore can do whatever I want. Jordan agreed with me and decided to join me. (11.12.09)

Here's me and BeBop (isn't that a silly name for a grandma?!), Jordan and Aunt Cookie at Helen Hunt Falls in Colorado Springs. (11.12.09)

At the top of Helen Hunt Falls! Jordan and I loved the ride up and loved listening to the water fall. I almost went to sleep since my sound machine is a waterfall too, but I was having too much fun.

Here we are about to take a bath...

Best friends.

Happy 1st Birthday Griffin!

It is hard to believe Griffin was born one year ago today! 11.10.08 was an overcast day in the 40s. After laboring at home for about 12 hours, Josh and I went to the birth center at 8:00 a.m.
Griffin was born at 11:19 a.m.
weighing 7 lbs. 8 oz. He was 19 inches long.
Natural childbirth wasn't the easiest thing we've ever done;
but it was well worth it.
Several minutes after being born
2 days old

Griffin Walks!



He's not running marathons any time soon, but he sure is proud of his first steps! Don't worry, the fall wasn't as bad as it looks! 11.1.09
