Aly decided she was ready to get her ears pierced and so mom and her made the trip to claires. Aly was perfect and ended up with no tears but now has sparkles (just like moms) Looks like Aly is all set for being a Sugarbaby this year and can wear the fun costume jewelry :)

Ashley is 1 month old
Amazing that Ashley is already 1 month old. To be truthful, the month has flown by and we are enjoying every minute with both the girls. Milestones for Miss Ashley are pretty amazing as well. By 2wks, Ashley was already above her birth weight, weighing in at 6lbs 8oz. She is a fabulous baby and sleeps about 5hrs once in bed and even sometimes needs us to wake her to eat before sleeping the remainder of the night. Needless to say, dad, mom and Aly are all well-rested! The best thing about her getting bigger is the starting of the noises and smiles :) She now reacts and tracks with all of us and in the morning we get extra big smiles! Such the best thing to wake up to in the morning.
Ashley loves her bed and her swing but what we laugh most about is her distaste for wet diapers. Seems like we are on about a 10 min changing pattern when she is awake. Enjoy the pictures below of her over the past month.

We celebrated my granny's 90th birthday on Saturday June 11th 2011. We had a lovely gathering at mom and dad's house to celebrate with the family and Granny's two sisters Marge and Doris. We enjoyed a wonderful meal in true Griffin Fashion and ended with cakes, desserts and presents.

Aly's Dance Recital
Alyson's second year of dance at Dance Arts Centre ended with a bang. Aly was part of a competition team and after a fun year of performing including a performance at the Mall of America and a competition in April, the recital ended the year. Aly's group did two numbers this year, Mr. Sandman for tap and Macho Man for Jazz. The pictures below are from the recital day and the dress rehersal night.
Thanks to Mari and dad who took Aly to her dress rehersal and to my mommy moo for coming over to help with Ashley.
Enjoy the photos and looking forward to next year's fun!!

Ashley's First day continued....
So we really tried hard to capture many moments of Ashley's first day. We had so many visitors that I wanted to pull together a few of the pictures to help capture a bit of the excitement of the day. Ryan, Aly, Ashley and I were blessed to have some many people visit both at the hospital and at home. Enjoy!
Mari Kise, Alyson and Ashley - just the girls!!! I think these three will cause a lot of trouble :)

Uncle Jonathan and Miss Ashley. Might direct you to the first blog posting of Alyson back in 2006 where Jonathan held Aly for the first time. Not gonna lie Jonathan but you have grown up so much over the past 4yrs.
