A New Toy

Grigg got a lot of great new toys for his birthday. Very boy toys - trucks and race cars, monster books and hockey sticks. (And lots of rad clothes - but I think only mom was excited about those). He also got this

At first, this was a very scary gift. But after he figured out he could throw a ball through the tube or carry one with him, it became a fast favorite.

"See Mom, I can even sit up in it!" He also tries to stand up in it - but that is more enjoyable for us than for him. The football, if you didn't already guess, was a gift from uncle mike, one of many in our collection that get taken into the tube.

Thanks Auntie Laura

What is a Grigg?

The outcome of crossing a Maurer and a Hamilton.

We Made It

Surviving our first year - check.

Celebrating our accomplishment - check.

Grigg promptly assuming authority - check.

At lease we made it a year though right?

I'm glad it's over OR sad it's over...well not sure just how to feel about it, except to know that we have a pretty great kid and we had a blast getting through it.

No Bull

We are going to start updating the blog more consistently...no bull.
