Zoom in...

Zoom out...

In the Hood

The good news....the cousins are back from California.

The bad news...Aunt Stacy had her camera

so there was a photo shoot!

I have to admit...I'm pretty photogenic.

I'm just an all around cool baby dude.

Do you recognize me?

Can you tell I grew a whole inch and

gained 2 pounds? I bet you hardly

even recognized me I've gotten so big!

I am 4 weeks old now....on Tuesday we went

to see Dr. B and some mean lady stuck

a big old needle in my leg.

Daddy gave her a dirty look and

mommy said she let the air out of her tires

but I don't think she really did. I got a cool

bandaid though...can you see it in the picture?

My new stats are:

9 pounds 7 oz

22 inches

Yesterday was St Paddy's day...so

mommy dressed me in head to toe

green and I drank a keg of green milkers!

I'm a little hung over today...good thing

all that was on the agenda was eat, sleep and poop!

I'll be back soon...right now it's time for bed!

Sweet Tea and Wonton Soup!

My Gran Ma and Aunt Snacki are visiting me from Tennessee...

YEEE-HAW!!!! Daddy made a bunch of sweet tea and we

are just hanging out and getting lots of cuddles.

Tonight we drove almost an hour to get to

mommy and daddy's favorite Chinese restaurant.

I slept all the way there and all the way back!

I woke up just as mommy's food arrived so she

got to feed me first LOL! I've got good timing!

Here I am with Harry - owner and daddy's personal

chef...he always cooks daddy's food for him.

He was super excited to meet me!

Gran Ma took me for my diaper change while Mommy

finally got to eat. Here is our first picture together!

Aunt Snacki cuddled me for a little while too. Ignore random

dude in background picking his boogers.

Goodnight all...more to come from the family visit...

An open letter to Ellen...

Dear Ellen,

My Mommy, Daddy and me got hooked on your show while on maternity leave. When daddy went back to work he made mommy tape it every day so he could still watch it. Here I am chillin' on my boppy watching.

My favorite part is when you dance. I'm glad you do this at the begining because I usually fall asleep after that. I can't help it, I'm only 4 weeks old!

Just in case you are reading my blog, I have a simple request. Can I please come on your show and dance with you? I will totally wear my Run DMC shirt and we can dance to their song Walk this Way. I'll even wear my leg warmers. Wait - scratch that...I may not want to wear those on National Television.

Anyway, I promise to be good and not cry. As long as my diaper is dry and I've had my milkers, I will be a perfect guest.

I hope I hear from you soon!

Your smallest fan,
Griffey


PS...Can both mommy and daddy come with me? Mommy can only watch because daddy says she is not allowed to dance in public. Trust me - this is a good thing.

Them Chickens is Good!!

Well like I said yesterday, we went to LoLo's Chicken

and Waffles today with our friends.

It lived up to the hype...them chickens is good!

Well OK I just had milkers but I closed my eyes

and imagined a tall glass of red Koolaid with a

greasy chicken leg and an extra dark waffle just like daddy!

Here I am with Chris and Kimberly.

Notice how I'm rocking leg warmers...mommy is crazy!

And an entry would not be complete without a picture of

me sleeping. I guess I ate too much...I'm knocked out!

Still rocking the leg warmers though...great.

Dreaming of Diamonds...baseball diamonds that is!

Have you missed me? Me and mommy have been busy sleeping this week.

We were very tired. Last night daddy got up in the night
and gave me all my milkers so mommy could sleep.

This is how mommy found us this morning...

Then tonight Daddy played ball. I got all dressed up

in his Bullseye shirt hoping I could play to.

Guess I fell asleep.

Tomorrow we are going to meet friends

Chris and Kimberly at LoLo's Chicken and Waffles. I can't

wait to wear my bib Jenny made me. Bring on the Koolaid!
