Random Life Occurences




This is going to be a collage of random thoughts and things that have been going on in our household during the last few weeks.


1) Lizzie is VERY close to successfully crawling. Everyone who already has children continually warns me that I should not desire this milestone in Lizzie's life as much as I do. I'm sure they all know what they are talking about, but I am so excited for her. Additionally, it would seem like I might be able to get more accomplished around the house if she could crawl - right now she just whines when I leave her for any small amount of time.


2) Lizzie is continually spoiled by all of her Grandparents. Grandpa and Grandma Griffen gave her her first taste of playing in the Tupperware drawer and being allowed to bang pots/pans/Tupperware together. She loved it! So, as any good mom would do, I moved all of my Tupperware into the drawer closest to the floor so that she could enjoy the same giggle inspiring activity at home.


3) Lizzie's two bottom teeth have pushed their way through her gums (THANK YOU!). Now she spends a lot of time pushing her tongue back and forth over her teeth - it is so cute.


4) I planted an herb garden along with two tomato plants. I really wanted to plant a real garden but our yard does not get enough sunlight for the garden to be successful.


5) Last, but not least, I've included a picture of my niece Cassidy wearing the beautiful dress that Ryan's mom knit for her (Ryan's mom also made the same dress for Lizzie - its just much larger and a different color).

I never thought it was a bad thing when Nicholas learned to crawl - I actually liked it better. Its nice cause they can get where they want without crying.

And those dresses are gorgeous - I was going to ask you where you bought them till I read that Ryans mom made them. If she ever wants to sell one... :)
