This week (and last) we've been going through a major growth spurt. I don't remember what night it was but I nursed Griffin to sleep at 7pm and he woke up hungry at 7:30pm, so I nursed him back to sleep, and he was hungry again at 9:15pm! And on and on it went, all night long. The 6 month jammies I bought him the day after Christmas are fitting much better...and a couple are even getting small. We weighed him at home, fully clothed and the scale says 16.9lbs (or about 16 lbs 14 oz)! No wonder he's getting harder to carry around:) The good news- growing so much means he's sleeping lots too. Not in long chunks of time but lots and lots of cat naps, 15-30 minutes long. Unfortunately for mommy, that means she's more tired than ever!
All three of my boys napping!
On Thursday I subbed in my favorite PE class at my favorite school (Cedarcrest). Grandpa Joe and Grandma Kathy took the day off work to babysit. I was most nervous that Griffin would miss me and that I didn't leave enough milk for him. But one of the things I love about Cedarcrest and subbing with the PE crew is that my parents only live about 3 miles away and I had permission for them to bring him to me if needed. BUT it wasn't needed. Griffin did great and I packed just enough milk. Substitute teaching is definitely easier than staying home with Pax and Griffin... SAHMs (Stay-at-home-moms) definitely earn their keep:)!! And this mommy was so tired, she was in bed at 7pm that night!
Playing at Grandpa and Grandma's!
Griffin's "new" shoes. There is a wonderful consignment store (Mimi's) here in Marysville and she had a sale on shoes and clothes this week! The cute lobster shoes are size 4, so we have to wait awhile until we can wear them...but the car ones fit now!
Griffin's favorite car toy...he's actually started grabbing and putting it in his mouth:)
Saturday February 5- 13 weeks! 
Griffin went to the blood bank with me today! He did great. He slept until I was almost finished and the nice nurses and volunteers helped keep him happy until my pint was full:) Hopefully he'll grow up to donate too. If you'd like to donate visit the Puget Sound Blood Center's website and schedule an appointment! http://www.psbc.org/programs/index.htm
