Lakyn turned 12 on Saturday. I can’t believe it. The Lakynator is a “pre-teen.

Beautiful, Talented and Confirmed Gifted
Posted on March 2, 2008 by The Griswold Story
Every parent likes to brag so now it’s my turn. I’ve always known that my Lakynator is a special child when it came to her intelligence but it has now been confirmed by an unbiased source. Lakyn was tested and is considered “Gifted and Talented” by one of the top school districts [...]

Bowl O Fun
Posted on January 14, 2008 by The Griswold Story

A Griswold Family Christmas
Posted on December 28, 2007 by The Griswold Story

There were some good times in between though…. like [...]

And to all a Goodnight

Merry Christmas to all…
Look how optimistic my girls are as they prepare for Santa’s visit tonight. Won’t they be disappointed when they get coal? :) Kidding, of course… well at least I think so… no one really knows what Santa’s got in that big bag.

Still Scared of the Big Man
Posted on December 22, 2007 by The Griswold Story
Lakyn and Lainey got their picture taken with Santa today and as we assumed, Lainey is still very leery of the big man. We went over to the Worthington Mall so that Lakyn wasn’t see by any of her Middle School friends while sitting on Santa’s lap (and there are no lines there).

How is this possible?
Posted on December 10, 2007 by The Griswold Story
Recently, I keep hearing the same thing over and over. ”Wow Lakyn has really changed.” So I decided to investigate…. this first picture was taken at the end of July 2006 and the 2nd picture was 11 months later… how is this possible? Sometimes you see someone everyday and so you don’t notice the changes. [...]

Posted on December 5, 2007 by The Griswold Story
Today a package arrived in the mail for Lakyn and Lainey from their Grandma Dedi that will add a new tradition to our family Christmas. She got the girls the “Elf on the Shelf” set. If you haven’t seen this, you are missing out. It is such a genius idea! It is a little [...]
