Griffin is TWO YEARS OLD!!!


104 weeks or 17,472 hours of craziness, fun, laughs, tears, sleepless nights, tantrums, cuddles, kisses and experiences we never want to forget!

Happy 2nd Birthday Griffin!  

You have brought a spark to your dad and me that only YOU could do.  You are testing us, loving us, showing us and teaching us so many things!  A few of our favorite moments over the past TWO years to celebrate fabulous little YOU!

Your first "tanning" bed aka the bili-bed to help get all the bad bilirubin out of your perfect little body.  You were on the bed for only 72 hours and were able to get all the bad stuff gone.  Such a trooper from the beginning!

The first months of your life you spent being carted around to mom's clients and adored by everyone.  A lucky little man who was able to use the ten-key before being able to crawl!

So strong..you always have had great control of your body and even sat up and held yourself so young!

Visits out of the country...sure did!  You did Canada and as you can see, Canada won!

Almost 9 months old and already a dare-devil sitting all by yourself on the Great Wheel in Seattle for mama's birthday.


Enjoying wine in Walla Walla with mom and dad...you would smile for good ones and frown at the bad ones...already a great little sniffer on you!

High fives with daddy!

Oh the adventures you had in your first year...Friday Harbor Dog Park and ready to play in the dirt.

Vacation time...and Kauai it was!
Fishing in Dad's lap was your favorite spot.
LUCKY!

ONE YEAR OLD!!!

The fall came and went and it was the holiday season...your infectious smile and laugh are one of our favorite things about you.  Mr. Personality is sometimes what we think of you as!

Belly button..yes, you have one of those and love to show it off! Always looking to get a laugh out of your audience.

Eat! Eat! Eat!
You have discovered how amazing food is and love to try new things.  There isn't a food you have found that you don't love!

Taking a moment to enjoy the view!
We have learned that you do need your "alone" time to reflect and recharge...a little like daddy!

Coffee time!
Always wanting what we have (or anyone else)!

Here's to fabulous little you!
We hope that you continue to grow, explore, laugh, love and reflect on life! You have so many fun times ahead and we feel blessed that you call us MOMMY and DADDY!

Happy 2nd Birthday Lovebug!

Family time.....Pictures, Pumpkins, Posing!

 
Fall is here and it was time to take our little Pumpkins to the PUMPKIN Patch!   


Family time!


Grammy and Grandpa Boness joined us for Pumpkins, Cupcakes (Pumpkin Doughnuts), Coffee and Sunday morning fun!

Tractor!!!!


This boy is OBSESSED with tractors...he calls them out whenever we are driving and would love to have his own. 

Off to the patch to find our perfect pumpkins...


The family search was on!


Success!

A little G and Bampa time!

Grammy and Grandpa Boness with the kiddos!

More family portraits.

Pumpkin doughnut time!

A little fun in the baby animal farm.

More doughnuts...and our pumpkins!

And he was done!!!
Let the season begin!  
Happy Fall.

Soaking up the end of the Sun!

In true Meyer fashion, we have tried to pack a month of fun in less than a week...so we are a little exhausted, a lot overwhelmed, and quite happy!  Hey, we can sleep later, right?!?!?

Miss M is growing up so fast and becoming such a little sweetheart.  She lights up when mommy and daddy come in the room and has developed quite the personality.

Mr G is comedy central live...he is obsessed with choo-choos, helping Grandpa Mike during the day and entertaining mom and dad at night!  He is such a little showman!

Rich and I even had a little date night out to celebrate his belated birthday with "just us" at Russell's!

Weeknight haircuts...


Jilly and G were so excited when October rolled around and Grammy and Grandpa put up their crazy pumpkins...

Saying hello and giving each pumpkin a kiss. Such a little love bug!

Friday cuddles with Auntie Roxy and GG...Miss M is all smiles.

Grammy took Miss M on errands Wednesday so G and I could have some special time just the two of us....

After fun time with Grammy, Grandpa joined in and they took G to swim lessons...

and ended the night with Thai and Ice Cream.  Good day, yes!!!

Example #1 and #2 of said character named Griffin Charles!

More smiles from the little peanut.

Posing with GG...showing off a fancy new bow!

Wagon rides with Grandpa with blue skies in October.

Helping mommy move the Costco groceries with his dump truck....

Cousin time at the gym....waiting for class to start J and G played in the kitchen.

Let the fun, bouncing, running, jumping and all our craziness begin.

Ball pit!

While Mommy and the kids played, Daddy and Chukar were here!

Rich's trip kept him overnight, so a few of the kiddos smiling for daddy!

Sunshine. Picnic. Cuddles.  LOVE! 

We celebrated my wonderful GG at a picnic in the park!

Family pictures...I doubt there will be a picture in the next 10 years that all of us are looking and smiles (and I'm ok with that)!

The constant entertainer!

Loving on GG!

Ready for some Monday Night Football!


This girl!

Such a fun start to fall...and there is so much more ahead.  Including one special little man turning TWO...where does the time go?!?!
