First point of interest: jetlag is a monster. Griffin is still recovering from it...which of course means that Landon and I are still recovering as well. Poor baby doesn't know which way is up.
We got back into Denver on August 8th and spent a week here letting Griffin readjust to his home environment, before we confused him yet again with another plane trip, this time to Arizona. Griffin loved hanging out with my family, especially his Grandpa Griffin...I think that was because my dad kept feeding him cookies on the sly, plus he let Girffin play with his cowboy hat. I guess that's what Grandpas are for, right?
Then we came back to Denver for a few more days, just in time for Griffin to be really confused when we took off for Utah to visit with Landon's family. We had a great time getting to see Griffin interact with all of his cousins, and hosting a Greek party for Landon's family: gyros all around!!
Now if you're considering calling me a cruel mother for dragging my poor kid all over the place and neglecting to give him a consistent environment, trust me, I'm with you all the way. When we purchased these plane tickets it seemed like a great idea to visit family after we got back to the U.S. The logic being, of course, that we hadn't seen them in several months and Griffin was bound to grow up during that time. Would it not also be cruel to the grandparents to withhold their grandson from them? At least, these were our thoughts when we purchased the tickets.
Not that I'm having any regrets about visiting family. We really had a fabulous time. But perhaps it would have been a little wiser to space our travel out a bit. As it is, I'm sure that Griffin assumes that any day now we're going to pack up and move again. Hopefully, he'll get into a more consistent rhythm now that we are finally back in Denver for good. We've decided that we are not doing any traveling until Christmas time. So if you want to see us, you'll have to mosey on over our way because this rolling stone is kaput and ready to start gathering a little moss...but not too much moss, that might cramp my style.

What a great weekend it was. We were so happy to see you three. It was so great. It was so fun to see Addie and Griffin interact. I love that little guy.
Cami, I love reading your blog posts! I just started a blog, and my goal is to be as entertaining as you are in your writing. I know I have failed thus far, but I am trying! Thank you for your inspiration as a fun and witty blogger! By the way, Griffin is perfect!
Yeah! Yeah! Thanks for posting. We love you and we miss you and we miss it when you don't post on your blog.
We had fun while you were here and wish you, Landon and Griffin could visit every weekend.
We love you lots and some of us will see you soon!

Hey, we'll mosey on over your way! We can be stationary stones together!
What a cute family you have!! We have enterred the blog world now. I hope you guys are doing well. Well, how could you not be? You did just get back from Italy and we are very jealous.
So much for recommitting yourself Cam. I have not seen a post in a few days, and you know this is one of my favorite forms of entertainment. Tell me a story, please. I am sick of hearing the hour long stories from my "Well Elder."
Hooray Cami post! Oh how i enjoy them. :-) You are even on my top ten bookmarked sites!
Griffin looks cuter than anything and I LOVE the photo with your dad. I'm glad to see he is passing on his fine sense of fashion already. In fact, I feel Griffin needs a smaller version of the hat to wear daily for training purposes. ;-P
Miss you tons! and your beautiful family!!
Besitos!
