Griffin Family: 2012

Ashlynn Griffin

Okay I was planning on downloading pictures of our Thanksgiving and our new addition to our family, Ashlynn, but was told that I have no more room to download pictures. I am not sure what I need to do to delete saved pictures so I have room to add more. So right now I will just have to tell you all about it. We spent our Thanksgiving in St. George. I love the weather down there this time of the year. The kids loved riding bikes and going swimming while we were there. My parents and brother, Kelley were also there with us. I was able to get almost all of my Christmas shopping done.

Then, at midnight on the 24th, Micah and I went to the hospital so I could be induced to have our precious baby girl. Ashlynn was born at 5:27am weighing in at 8 lbs. 10 oz. and 19 inches. Wow!! I was very surprised to have that big of a baby. She reminds me so much of Kaylee. Since being home, she has been a really good baby and I hope that she stays that way. It makes life a little easier with an easy going baby when I have 3 other kids to take care of.

Trick-or-Treat

Happy Halloween!! Here are my cute kids in their costumes on Halloween. We also went to the school Halloween carnival. I was one of the winners for the adult Halloween costume judging. I think I am all Halloweened out!! Time to put all the Halloween things away and get ready for Thanksgiving and our new baby girl.

Adult Halloween Party

Micah and I went to an Adult Halloween party. We had a lot of fun, and yes I did make my costume. If you look close enough the baby does have a pink bow on her head. Kaylee didn't want to have anything to do with us once we were dressed. I guess we were too scary for her.

Soccer time!! Plus a few extra events

The month of September and October are the months of soccer. Luckily I don't have to coach this year and can enjoy watching my kids play. So here are some pictures of Jackson and Makenna playing soccer.

Makenna lost her first tooth with the help of her dad on October 6th.

Jackson started cub scouts in August and we had his first pack meeting on Wed. the 9th, where he got his bobcat and got to put a pin on me. He loves scouts and was excited to start getting badges, belt loops and beads for his shirt.

Here I am at 33 weeks, and counting down.

Round #2 with all three kids

I decided to try another round of pictures with my camera, but this time I had all three kids. Here are some of my favorites. Although I have to admit, I think it would be easier to have a photographer take these instead of me. I think my kids try to joke around more with me when I want them to be serious about these pictures and do what I say. :)

My girls

Instead of going to a photographer, I have decided to try to take pictures of my kids with my new camera. This was my first photo shoot of Makenna and Kaylee. Jackson was camping with his dad, so I will have to get him another day.

Jackson's Baptism

Jackson was baptized by his dad on Sept. 1st. It was a special day for him and there were lots of family members who came to support him on his big day. He said he felt like a new person. Congratulations Jackson on your baptism and thanks to all our family members who came.

Kaylee turned 2!!

My baby girl is now 2 years old!! She is so much fun to have in our family. She is such a talker and loves to help out, so I am sure she will be a BIG helper when her baby sister joins our family.

A lot going on!!

I told you there would be more birthday pictures. Sat. the 25th we had a family birthday party for my three kids. Since their birthdays are within 3 weeks of each other it is nice to just throw one party. It looked like Christmas with all the presents they got. We had dinner, opened gifts, and had banana pudding, cake , and ice cream. We had a fun time with all our family here.

Ok, here I am at 26 weeks. I hate how my belly button sticks out. I am counting down with only 14 weeks left to go and our little girl will be here.(maybe sooner :) )

School started today the 27th. My kids were excited for their first day. Kaylee wanted to be just like her older siblings and was ready to go with them, plus she wanted to be in every picture. Jackson is in 3rd grade and Makenna is in the 1st.

Jackson turned 8!!

Wow, it is hard to believe that my oldest child just turned 8. Jackson's birthday was on the 16th. Instead of the traditional cake he wanted banana pudding, so that is what I made him on his special day. He will be getting baptized on Sept. 1st. We have more birthdays coming up in the next 2-3 weeks, so you will be seeing more of my cute kids and their special day.
