Your tongue always stuck out of your mouth like Kellens used too as a baby; you have moms eyes so you look like Bryson but your dark skin and eyes was totally new.
How time flies, now you are 3. We love our Griffy.



Bryson 4 1/2 years old; Kellen 2 1/2; Griffin 2 weeks old




The BIG #3 year old...April 15th.
Happy Birthday to our sweet Griffin...we love you.




Griffin wanted to eat 'inside' McDonalds for lunch on his birthday Griffin kept me on the ball and the party going...
"i wanna open presents now mom"
"now lets sing happy birthday to me"








It seemed almost impossible to get a picture of Griffin with his eyes open.





His very own "RHINO"(as he calls it)


He is actually a really good driver


Since we had a lovely freezing, 65 mile an hour windy day Griffin was content with driving his rhino around in the garage. It actually snowed that night too; the lovely weather of Snowflake!!
***
Thanks to everyone that came to Griffin's party, he didn't want anyone to leave.






Baseball Season!!
Brysons 1st year of machine pitch!
&
Kellens 1st year of t-ball...and loving it!
*** The snow cone after each game might be the biggest highlight though


Kellen has had a pretty bad cough and despite
mine and Tyler's persuasion he was not going to miss his 1st t-ball game
no matter how windy it was.


HAPPY EASTER...
coloring eggs and the easter egg hunt!

Another Classic Griffin moment...
April 10th, 2009
~this kid makes us laugh~

(he is wearing his boots and talking how he is
going to ride a buckin' bull when it gets warm and he wants it to buck him off the back.
He keeps trying to talk ME into being the bull...ya at 8 1/2 months prego)
"Mom put toilet paper in my nose, its bleeding from the buckin bull"
He pulls it out after a few seconds and yells,"Wa-Hoo" and jumps in a circle.

Our little spit fire...

On saturday night we were at my parents while the guys were at preisthood. When they got home Tyler ran home to change before dinner. After he left Griffin decided he wanted to go home too. We kept trying to talk him into staying since Tyler was coming right back but he was insistant in walking home in the dark.
Brooke was sewing Easter dresses in the laundry room that goes into the garage. Griffin starts leaving out the door and Brooke says, "Griffin, stay here I would miss you." Griffin says (with 100% sincerity in his voice),"I have to go home; I hate you guys". And walks out the door.
SPRING BREAK!
March 26th-29th, 2009
***
*4 days-3 nights...3 different places to sleep*
*Phoenix Zoo*
*Texas Roadhouse*
Bryson and Kellen thought it was the coolest thing that they
were supposed to throw their peanut shells on the ground.
I kept hearing "are you sure mom?"
The cinnamon butter and rolls are always a hit too!
*Swimming*
*Griffin's first fist fight on the school bus-Peter Piper Pizza*
We gave the boys tokens to go play whatever game their hearts desired.
Griffin came to Tyler for more tokens to ride the school bus that goes back and forth. When he got back to the bus there was a kid sitting in the seat. Griffin shoved him clear out of the bus and jumped in. The kid then shoved Griffin clear out of the bus and before he could jump in the seat Griffin and this little boy were full on double fisted punching each other.
I wish we had a video camera; Tyler said it was hilarious.
When Griffin came back over to me I asked him if he got in a fight and he said, "yes, I hate that stupid kid in that yellow shirt".
*BBQ & Fishing*
*Baby Blessing*
Sherry and McKay blessed Baby Hinkley
