Finger Painting

Mom left town to travel to California for work. Daddy wanted to make sure I had plenty to do so I drew my first picture for Mommy.

9 months - 9 lives

Well now that I walk a few steps, crawl all over including up the stairs and pull myself up everywhere - that's what I have - Nine Lives.


For me - I am having fun - mom and dad and puppers have to chase me around the house but for the rest - I think they are a little tired.


So here I am at nine months and having a
blast. I am wearing the dress cousin Erin Noble Lauf gave me when I arrived. Again - no applause - I know I am cute - And did you notice my golf shoes straight from Pebble Beach - I guess Nanny Moo and Ah-Pah wanted me to start early. Daddy and Mommy helped by giving me a little lesson tonight. I was not very happy because there were no birdies for the evening - Maddie had them all.

Oh well - Daddy is off to Alaska tomorrow to see his best friend Jordin. Mom, pup-pup and I are off to Nanny Moos and Ah-pahs - Sure I will have lots of adventures to share.

Sunday Morning Fun

Well here I am enjoying a wonderful Sunday Morning brunch with Puppers - having bananas, strawberries and scrammbled eggs. Yummy. Maddie was enjoing all of the yummies too...

Than I took a nap and mom and dad tried to get some laundry done. Well when I woke I decidedd to help mom and dad fold - so Here I am hepling.



And than some more fun - The Winters gave me this fun playhouse and puppy and decided to play together.

Aly at Addie Bott's 1st B-Day PArty

Addie turned 1 and we all went to her party. It was a hot sunny day and we all played together. The fun part was meeting all of the new friends that were just like me last summer - "on the way"

Here I am with Addie and Louisa and Maren in the background. Looking forward to more playdates.

Aly, Addie and Jack - Oh My

Been a while since we last chatted but Alyson is ready to update all of her fans.

This is a picture from last weekend. Carrie, Jack's mom turned 30 and Jason turned 28 and we had a little party to celebrate. Wanted to get out on the lake but some badly needed rain arrived - so inside for fun!!!

Addie is turning 1 this coming week and Jack is now 4 months and Alyson almost 9. The girls you can see were fighting over Jack - More fun to look forward too....

You haven't played Guitar Hero

Well - Mark and Kirsten traveled back from Thailand to visit family and friends over the past few weeks. They were able to find some time in their crazy schedules to head out to Chaska to meet Miss Alyson.



They brought a gift which was priceless - A few matchbox cars for Aly to drool - Guess Aly's mom used to drool all over Mark's cars.

Well Grandma and Grandpa Griffin had a fun gift for them - A watercolor of the place they were married that Dad did. It was such a precious gift.

And then we had some fun playing Guitar Hero - and boy did they enjoy that. Aly had gone to bed so the adults could have some fun.

Miss you guys - come back to visit soon.

8 Months - Our little Sailor

Well here I am on my 8th month birthday. I thought it would be fun to have my picture out at the lake as I love to be outside or in the water swimming.

Mom has a lot more pictures to get online but enjoy this one of me - oh so cute!!!
