Grand and Great Grand Visit

We had a wonderful visit from the Griffin grandparents and great-grandparents this weekend. We know that it is a long drive and we appreciate them making the trek for us (Actually for Morgan). We enjoyed seeing family, especially since we had to miss much of the Christmas 05 festivities. Here are a few generational pictures.

Morgan loves his reflection. Here's the proof.

Here is a video of baby Morgan and one of his new toys. The people up at Midland Classical Academy were nice enough to have a special shower for Ashleigh and her friend Jennifer yesterday. This is one of the presents that we got for Morgan. As you can see, he is fascinated.

Here's a great one of Morgan at bath time. He always seems to be able to find the camerra.

Wakey Time for Morgan!

We took a video of Morgan waking up from one of his naps. He always seems to do the funniest stuff when he's just waking up. We were trying to get him to do his stretch but he had other stuff in mind.

Here is a good picture of little Morgan asleep in Mamma's arms. He continues to fascinate and delight us every day. Ashleigh is getting better and better at reading his signals and keeping him in a good sleeping schedule. Routines are actually starting to return to normal (as much as can be exected anyway). In fact, I was even able to go back to Jiu-jitsu this week. I'm already a little out of practice but I'm sure I'll catch up.

One Month Old!

Morgan is already one month old as of yesterday. It's hard to believe that it's been that long since his birth. Here is a picture we took yesterday to document the occasion. He just keeps getting bigger!

Smile

Before I tell about the video, I would just like to take a second to say "Hook em Horns!". I don't usually watch any sports but, of course, how could I not watch the Longhorns play for the national championship. It was a great game... very entertaining. My condolences go out to USC.

This is a video of Morgan smiling. He is starting to smile more and more nowand there are certain things that really set him off.

New Year's Photos

Here are the pictures from our Abilene New Year. We got behind a little while we were out of town.

We had a great New Year's Eve with the Motz family. We continued the tradition of celebrating the arrival of the new year by banging pots and pans (A Tacie special). Also we have photos of the great grandparents that will be posted tomorrow.
