Who needs to walk, when you can run?

I now fully believe I have named this blog appropriately.  Griffin has gone from taking a few steps to walk from mom to dad, to pretty much walking whereever he needs to go.  Actually, not just walking, he wants to run!  lol, it's so funny, he is just so fast!  Who knew such a chunky boy could move so fast?  Although I think his shins would like a break!

Owen is still growing like crazy, I think he gets a little taller every day.  His tantrums are starting to be fewer and farer between, I'm really hoping Griffin skips the tantrum stage, a mom can hope right????  Owen is getting such an imagination and I just love watching him play.  He makes everything talk, yesterday on the way home from daycare, his oreo thinsations were having a great conversation!  Also, anything that happens that is bad, seems to be Bubby's fault.  Poor Bubby.

We got a new ride!  We realized that we could get pretty much our van, with all the add ons I originally wanted (but couldn't afford on mat leave) for the same monthly payment we were paying, so off Chris went and came home with this:
Basically the same van we had, but red, lol.  It has remote start, remote sliding doors and gate, sirius satellite, bluetooth, all the goods :)  It will be a nice comfortable ride for all when we drive home for the summer this July!  Oh, and the best part, dvd screens in the middle and back rows, whoo hoo :)

In other news, the back door is still not fixed,  the construction company is saying next Tuesday or Wednesday, Tuesday is a month to the day from Christmas, that's Fort Mac for you! 

It has been crazy cold here, I'm thinking about starting a count down for spring, but that might just make me depressed :(

Griffin is a model

A local photographer was looking for some babies for her portfolio, a free photo shoot for my little man?  Sure!  Here are the shots she sent.  I love love love them :)  If only someone in our house had remembered to feed the child some lunch, then she really would have got some great smiles!  Check out her site: Retrospect Photography.  Hmmm...her blog isn't working, so here is her business website: http://www.retrospectsphotography.net/
