3 Day Weekend!

We have definitely enjoyed the long weekend! Griffin is doing too many new things to write out, so I'll just make a list and illustrate some with pictures:

• he is getting much faster and more obsessed with his dump truck/ride on cars and pushing them around while "hauling" random items in the back
• his love for stuffed animals is also growing and he now needs to hug one (Bobby or his sleep sheep) when he goes to bed and first thing after he wakes up
• he started dancing to music
• he loves wearing hats all of the sudden
• he is learning to kiss.....for real (not just make the sound)
• a funny but someday not so fun trick, he likes to hide......he's not very good at it and is easy to find but he is definitely practicing
• he loves pushing any and every button he comes across--I put batteries in a bubble blowing toy and realized he had found it after I kept hearing a weird sound this afternoon
• we have confirmed his obsession with the vacuum and documented it with many photos of him following Drew around

We are constantly amazed at the things he does and watching him "figure things out". I know he doesn't know english all that well (he doesn't say many words, and most know I'm worried about his speech) but it's crazy how he seems to understand what we say. 

We made another trip to the doctor's office on Saturday after daycare called Friday afternoon saying Griffin had a fever. He lost his dinner all over me that night and continued to have a temp of 102.6, thankfully it was just a virus. He is much better now, although his lack of appetite, constant drool, and hands in the mouth makes us think he is working on new teeth. 

Why?  I don't know

but let's leave it in my mouth for a while

howdy partner

ma'am

he only gets to do this when daddy is in charge

this was a hiding spot that I "found" him in

mesmerized by the vacuum

Duke is so tolerant

we can no longer use the bathroom in peace

how many things can we fit under the seat?

what a goob....no clue what that hand is doing
