21 Months Old



This last month has been really fun. Drew has been so busy with turkey season that I am gaining major points. It’s also exhausting to be responsible for getting Griffin and myself ready in the morning and on time (still trying to get a handle on this) AND get him bathed, changed, and in bed each night while Drew is finishing up at turkey camp. Once again, I don’t know how single parents do it.


New tricks/things we’ve done in the last month:

  • Started taking children’s Claritin – this has really helped at his most miserable times, lots of rain lately has settled things down so we are all much happier
  • Visited Great-Grandma Delores at her new place in Springfield twice – really fun to have her an hour away
  • McDonald’s/Walmart trip with Briley joining us (see video)
  • PAT visit with Tiffany – she always gives us lots of tips and cool things to do to help Griffin’s development
  • Spent the night with Josh and Nicole in Springfield and was treated to breakfast out while Drew and I ran in the Color Run
  • 1st visit to the dentist – I’ve been to Dr. Terry since I was a wee child and she filled my mouth full of shiny silver caps (hopefully she won’t do the same to Griffin) but she did take 10 minutes before my appointment to look at his teeth and make sure they were all coming in, no decay, and that things were good…and they were. He still has 8 more to go: top/bottom canines and a set of molars on top/bottom
  • Language is developing quickly, it seems like he has all of the sudden started saying a ton of words and is attempting new words every day – favorite one lately is the ever popular “no”
  • Weighing in at about 25lbs according to the bathroom scale








Griffin is also perfecting his "knucks" move.....
