All About Griffy Poo :)


Standing at 5 feet 11 1/2 inches tall, weighing 150 elbees, my baby is 14!  It really kinda blows my mind.  This was a lot easier to do for Blake's birthday, because all of his pics are digital.  I also know we were gone for 2 of Griff's birthdays.  Just thought I'd throw that in there so nobody thinks I'm playing favorites or anything.

Griffen's cakes usually represented what he was into that year.  For the past couple of years he has wanted strawberry cream cheese cakes with the candles close together because he HATES it if he can't get them all out with one blow.  He said it happened when he was 11 and I don't think he has quite gotten over it.

Some of the best birthday presents ever!  A truck, bike, massages from Ashley, sports stuff, silly string from Britt, a head  lamp, legos, and snuggling with me.  I don't know if he loves snuggling me, but I do!

Since this post is about Griffy, I thought I would add this. 
The first broken bone was the white cast when he was 4.  He was jumping on a tramp.  I only remember this because it was the first bone he had ever broke.  I took a bunch of pictures, and everyone wanted to sign it.   The rest is kind of a blur.  The novelty has slightly wore off, and I just had to look through pictures and spot the ones where he has a cast.  The second was the blue cast on his left hand.  It happened at school.  I don't remember what he was doing.  Next was the broken toe at Oceanside.  He was jumping over a rock, and didn't quite make it.  It was so sick!  His toe was sticking out sideways!  Then was the purple cast on his right hand.  No idea what happened.  Then the broken right hand.  Can't remember that one either.  

Then the broken right foot.  That was in PE.  After that, the staple to the finger that went into the bone.  Next, we have the infamous Denver fall.  That counts as 3 since he broke 3 bones on that one.  Hopefully the last, but not least, is the broken left arm.  He managed to do that when he wrecked on a 4-wheeler at The Empire.

I freakin love this kid!

ZOO!


Me, Griff, Blake, Brittni, Caleb, Ashley, Eva, Kim and Sandra all went to the Zoo!  I'm not trying to be a total cheap ass, but it was a lot more expensive than I thought it would be.  That said, we had fun!  I will always remember it as the time I actually saw a monkey spanking his monkey.  It was pretty disturbing.  He was looking right at me!

Griffen claims he has wanted one of those snakes for the last 11 years, so they both chose that as their souviners.  We drove up the canyon and ate at Ruth's for dinner.  It was delish. 
Me and the boys and Brittni and Caleb went to City Creek after because I had to return a necklace.  We walked through the temple to get there and on the way back, Blake had to use the bathroom.  When he came out, we had the following conversation.

Blake:  You have to come in here and see this!
Me:  I can't. It's the men's room.  What?
Blake:  There are like 100 guys in there and they kept doing whatever I did!
Me:  What?
Blake:  Ya, like I was washing my hands and was trying to look behind me and I would lean one way, and they would all lean like that, then I would lean the other way, and they would all lean that way!  They just kept doing what I was doing and getting in my way!!!
Me:  Well, there was probably a mirror in front of you and a mirror behind you.
Blake:  Oh!  So that's why they were all in a line behind me?
Me:  It wasn't anybody!  It was you!  It was just your reflection in the mirror.
Blake: OOOOHHHHH, I get it.
