Griffin was born! We had just moved to Norway 3 months before. I remember thinking that the nurses stood outside my room playing Rock Paper Scissors to see who would have to go talk to the American! Now here we are....9 yrs later. :)
We started the day early (6:30am) so that Reidar could join us for a birthday breakfast. Reidar made Griffin homemade waffles. Our tradition is that the birthday presents are at their place at the table on the birthday morning. He was so excited to see what was waiting for him. See the cage in the corner...he completely missed it! Sat down at the table and didn´t even give it a second glance...how does that happen!
This is a shot of the weather we woke up to this morning....the wind was blowing and the snow was falling!
Griffin opening his presents. I had to turn the overhead lights on to get a good picture. That was way too much light for that early in the morning...candle light is much kinder. lol I love his fluffy morning face. 
Garrett and Zoey hamming it up for the camera...as usual
Me and my 9 yr old baby! oh, and Zoey pouting in the background because she couldn´t take a picture with me at that moment. 
Yes, he finally noticed the cage...after I pointed it out to him. He is getting a hamster! We are going tomorrow to pick one out. He is still deciding on names but Bella is in the fore front. The hamster WILL be a girl because boy hamster are "well endowed" and it kind of freaks me out! lol
Griffin blowing out his candles...we put trick candles on it...pretty funny! They kept relighting for a long time!
Ohhh..... Ahhh.....
Some of his birthday guests.... Tobias (in motion), Griffin, Håvard, Hans Petter, and Sander.
Ok...birthday down....bring on Christmas!

Happy Birthday Griffin! You have a very nice family. Lisa, I remember when you sent me the picture when you were expecting Griffin - wow, you were out there. (hmmm, or maybe that was Garrett?). Sounds like you celebrated wonderfully!
