Bye Bye Bottles

So today is going on the 4th successful day Griggs has gone without his bottle. It really hasn't been as hard as i thought. Sad yes, because i kinda like our time when he just lays there with me for a whole 10 minutes!! But its good for him. He is a big boy and is starting to be so independent. We just took him to his one year check up and the doctor said he was perfect and very smart. LIKE I DIDN'T ALREADY KNOW THAT!! ha

The BIg 27!!

Happy Birthday Babe. I can't believe you are 27 wow. I love your guts. I can't wait to spend many many more with you. You are my best friend and an amazing father. WE are so lucky to have you. I hope you have a super day.

Missing Maui :(

So It has been a week since we got home from beautiful maui and I already miss it!! It is so so beautiful and laid back there i just want to go back!! I keep a picture of the beach on my phone as a screen saver I try to picture myself there. haha It was so nice for Griggs to get to spend some time with his Grandpa McNeeley. They had so much fun together, except Griggs tore the house apart hourly :) We had such a good time with him and he was so good to us. Thank you John!! It is just so sad coming from such a beautiful climate to THIS CRAPPY westher!! Well i just had to sulk for a second. But one thing is for sure-- WE ARE GOING BACK SOON!! Thats a guarantee

Happy Birthday Griggsy!

Griggs was born March 2, 2008 @ 12:27pm weighing 6 pounds 6 oz. I cannot believe my baby has turned one!! Besides being extremely handsome he has turned into like this little dude. He has the FUNNIEST personality, he loves to make people laugh!! His smile just makes me melt. I love everything about him. Especially when he snuggles with his momma, which isn't much be cause he is way to busy Playing and getting into everything he is not suppose to be. HE is ALL BOY all the time, and boy does he like the ladies. This little flirt goes right for the girls :) These days you can find him JAMMING to music,singing, and running all over the place. He is a stud and way too smart for his own good. I look at his newborn pictures and i almost want to cry seeing how small he was. But He is so healthy and so much fun these days i just have to enjoy every second with him. Before I know it he will be in high school, driving,going away to college...Its such an amazing trip, because i think us as parents learn just as much raising children. I never new my heart could hold so much love or that i would do anything for him to have a great life. Now I know what my parents where always talking about when i would get chewed out for making them worry!! My dad always said-- One day when you have a kid you will see!! I do dad :) Being his mom has made me a better more loving person and i am so happy that he chose me to be his momma. Happy birthday Stinky!!
