28 Months Old

Griffin has become quite a handful this past month.....shown in his picture poses. He's still getting his fair share of "spankin's" and learning the acceptable way to act and talk to us. HAHA! This is quite a task, and I'm sure will carry on for some time. 

He is very independent, always has been. Somehow, he has become potty trained at daycare, but not at home....we are improving on this lately. 

He's also had several bouts of illness in the past month, including his first vomiting into the toilet experience. It's pretty pitiful to watch a 2 year old hug the toilet, but it makes for much less clean up!

He continues to be very shy when we are out in public, to the clingy/hide his face wherever he can extreme. It takes a good 10 minutes to warm up to anyone (this doesn't apply to people he sees regularly) trying to speak to him. We are going to try to visit Santa at the mall this weekend, I can only imagine what that will turn out like.

Here's a few random photos from the month:

if the weather is nice and we are home, he wants to be outside!

One afternoon, Ashley and I took the boys to the pottery studio. It was the Hensley's first time and I think despite the lack of naps, they enjoyed it. Griffin and I were working on a flower pot for my plant that sits by my desk. I ended up going back to finish it! 

 

These two boys are quite a pair. I think we were all almost in tears on the way home during this "make each other laugh" game they started playing. Griffin was the perpetrator and to a much higher extent, but Chase had taken over at this point.

With the holidays right around the corner, I anticipate many more posts with much more interesting content. Stay tuned!
