No pants party!

Over the last few months, Griffith has grown tired of conforming to society's expectations regarding pants. He finds pants and diapers too constricting and prefers going nude, especially when sleeping. However, this has posed some problems recently. In fact, today Griff took his diaper off at daycare on two separate occasions. The no pants party took a turn for the worse when Griff decided that he needed to take a leak and the floor he was standing on was as good a place as any to relieve himself. This became an even bigger problem when Griffith's teacher came over to warn him about Denver's strict laws regarding pants and slipped and fell on Griff's floor urine. Needless to say, Griffith's parents will be taking a much firmer stance on the enforcement of the pants policy.

Summertime

Griffith has managed to keep himself very busy this summer. He has kept himself busy doing GTL with the rest of the Jersey Shore Crew. Gym, tan and making his mom do tons of laundry. The time he has spent at the gym and at the tanning salon is clearly paying off as you will see below.

Dancing machine

Griffith has been working on some new dance moves. We think he should be ready for the next season of Dancing with the Stars if he keeps practicing.

I'm hungry (again)

Griffith has discovered his new favorite hobby, eating massive amounts of food. He normally starts out with what we call "1st breakfast" around 6:30 a.m, which will usually include yogurt, toast and a smoothie. Sometimes Griffith demands a glass of milk or yogurt smoothie for that lengthy 10 minute drive to daycare. Then, Griff will have "2nd breakfast" with the rest of the kids at daycare around 8:00 a.m. This meal typically consists of waffles, eggs, cereal or whatever else is on the daycare menu. Next comes lunch around 11:00 or so, which will be a grilled cheese, some crackers or maybe some fruit if Griff is feeling healthy. He often will eat other kids' unfinished lunches because one helping is just not enough. Snacktime is next at 2:00 p.m. which will be graham crackers with some more milk. Finally, Griffith finishes the day with dinner at 5:30. We try to feed him fruits and veggies, which is largely unsuccessful, which means Griffith eats his favorite meal of mac and cheese about 5 times a week. We are starting to look into infant gastric bypass. Here are some pics of Griff partaking in his favorite hobby:

Walk it out

Griffith is busy working on this whole walking thing. Most of the time, he seems pretty content to crawl and let his parents/servants carry him where he needs to go. However, every so often he will show everyone how to walk it out. You can see that when he walks it out, he looks like a drunk senior citizen with a walker.

Happy Birthday to Me!

As I'm sure everyone knows, Griffith had his first birthday on February 9th. Do not worry if you forgot the big day, Griff said he would continue to accept gifts for the next six months. The First Annual All-Star Tribute to Griffith was held on the following Saturday, February 12th. Here are some pics of the star-studded affair.

Griffith's newest trick

Well, it's been almost a year and Griffith is adding new tricks to his repertoire everyday. While other kids waste their time walking, talking or waving, Griff spends his time clapping. He claps when things are good, he claps when things are bad, he claps when others say hello to him. He pretty much claps anytime his parents ask him to do anything. Some may say he's a one trick pony, but Griffith is clearly focusing on mastering his craft before he moves on to other pursuits. Take a look at the clapmaster in action:
