Papa made us some yummy chicken and pepperoni pizza the other night! It was really good!!
The Bible calls debt a curse and children a blessing. But in our culture we apply for a curse and reject blessings. Something is wrong with this picture.

Deuteronomy 11:18-19
18 Fix these words of mine in your hearts and minds; tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads. 19 Teach them to your children, talking about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

Baby G Pictures :) Kids Meet Their New Sister!!
The NEWEST BIG BROTHER!!! He didn't quite know what to make of this little bundle in his lap. Because he hasn't been a big brother or sister before he was the 1st of the kids to hold her. He really likes her hair and strokes it when ever he gets close enough. He's also really enjoying taking her tiny diapers to the garbage!! Big helper!!
The sweet BIG SISTER!!
The BIGGEST SISTER!!! She was SO tickled to hold Baby G.
The Proud 2nd BIGGEST BROTHER!!
The proud BIGGEST BROTHER!!! Goofy little R beside him :)

She Is Here!!
Grace Rebecca Ruth Griggs arrived at 11pm, November 18th weighing 8lbs, 4oz and 20 inches long!! According to dates she was one week late, according to appearance she was about a week early!! We did induce labor as my water broke early that morning. She is healthy and a wonderful snuggle bug. The kids are all loving her and we are all enjoying her cuddles. I don't know how to post pictures from my iPad so they will have to wait til we are home! Sorry! Rebecca is after our great friend Mrs B and Ruth is after Papa's sister Auntie Ruth!

How To Keep 5 Small Children Busy
Let them give the baby a bath!! He loved it!! They all had to change their shirts and E's pants when they were done but they had a blast!!
Some Wood Fun!!
The kids wanted to make some $$ this week so Papa and I told them if they stacked the firewood on the trailer FULL UP they would each earn $3. Well it took them awhile, girls stacking boys putting the wood in, but they did it. Papa spent time out there too and made them a fire to warm up around and moved the trailer so they wouldn't have to haul it very far. They were working in Maggie's pen and she REALLY liked the fire, she singed her self!!, and when the load was finished Papa moved it and the kids to the wood pile!! Maggie was VERY confused about that!! She followed right behind them like a mother hen!! The kids had a great time and the weather was perfect for it. Not too cold that R froze solid. They watched Papa unload it with the skid steer for a minute then ran inside to get their money!! We have a ton of change around here so I paid them in change.. each one differently and used it as a math lesson :) They loved it.
