Party @ the Parks!

On the days that we are not at the park for our class, we're at the Parks Mall.


We hang out in the play area before & after class waiting for our friends to show up.


"Hey Luke, whatcha' looking at?"

There's Claire!


"Hi Liberty, how are you doing?"

Finally, Claire decides to sit down with us! Now that she's walking, she doesn't sit still for long!






Just a Swingin'

Morgan & her friends are finally big enough for the swings at the park. After a hard workout (sitting in the stroller is exhausting) the babies all get to play on the playground!
"Mom, does this swing make me look fat?"


"Wait for me Garrett!"


Ash Wednesday!

We honored Ash Wednesday by having a meat-free "Breakfast for Dinner" with our friends. Morgan provided the entertainment by showing everyone how well she can blow raspberries & then cracking herself up by doing so!!

Boy, between Fat Tuesday & Ash Wednesday, it's already been a long week. Morgan is barely making it to 9:00 each night!

Fat Tuesday!!

Party, Party, Party!! Thanks Jennifer & Luke for letting us tear up your house! Morgan loves her beads!!

Sophia came to play too! We miss her, it had been a long time since we had seen her!
Hey Garrett....watch the hair little buddy!!

Rubber Ducky...you're the one!!



OK...first off these are the first pics I have posted of bath time but it's not because I haven't bathed my child in 6 months!! She was taking a bath with me & we don't need to see all that! Anyhow, thanks to her friend Luke & his new ducky bath....here's Morgan's!!
She didn't like it at first but LUVS it now!!

Thanks Luke for the great recommendation!!

What was that??

I don't know about these Graduate Puffs Mom...

Do I chew or swallow or what??

Look at all of the trouble I can get into!

I can climb (actually roll) out of my bouncer.

I can tear up anything if I work hard enough at it. Daddy didn't really need that tool magazine now did he??


Ahhh....always Daddy's little girl......

Happy Valentine's Day!

Our day started out with taking flowers to Grandma Suzanne. She is always so happy to see her granddaughter.

Then after a much needed nap, we had dinner with our friends. Doesn't Mo look cute in her tights even though she protested about them ALL night!!


"Daddy, stop messing up my hair!!"

Valentine's Party!

Morgan woke up from her nap & all of her friends were here at her house! I don't think Mo was quite awake yet. Thanks Jennifer for loaning Morgan your knee!

At one point, we had 16 babies & Mommies all having fun together!!


Luke & Garrett....2 of Morgan's best buds!!

Thanks everyone for coming & bringing all of the delicious snacks. We had a great time and felt really blessed that we have all these wonderful Mommies & babies in our lives.....lucky us!!

Such a good helper!!

Such a good helper at making a mess I should say!! Morgan & I are cleaning for our Valentine's party with our Stroller Strides friends tomorrow morning.


We were doing laundry obviously when there was a knock at our door. Daddy sent us flowers for Valentine's Day. They'll make a great centerpiece for tomorrow. I suspect that's why we got them 2 days early.

Oh my...better keep a closer eye on you!!

Morgan has been much more alert & active lately. I can put her under her play gym or in her bouncer & usually clean, do laundry or whatever. Well, today...I've had 2 occurences with her already. Luckily, she's loud enough that I can hear her all over the house. She was in her bouncer earlier while I ran to the bathroom & when I got back, she had scooted her butt all of the way down to the bottom & was sitting on the floor! Then, just now I was sorting her laundry in another room while she was laying on her back under her gym. I can hear her kicking her feet & the music. Then, I hear her TinkerBell wand. That girl had flipped onto her stomach, rotated 180 degrees, found her wand & somehow managed to push the tiny little button smaller than her pinky to make it "chime." So, I sat her back on the mat because she was on the hardwood floor & I had barely turned back my when I hear the "Mom, help!" squeal. I honestly don't know what happened that time other than maybe she just needed a hug....

Oy, I think my days of leaving her alone for longer than 30 seconds are over....

I'll try to get a pic of her new craziness to post!

Bubbles & Boo-hoos!


Taylor taught Morgan all about bubbles. We have about 30 pics of just them playing with the bubbles but this was one of the cutest.

We had dinner at our favorite sushi place with friends.



And....this is how our night ended. A face only a mother can love...right??

Aren't they cute??


I love this pic of Taylor & Morgan. Taylor is a great big sister to Morgan and really enjoys having a little munchkin around to tease & harass.....

Morgan just follows Taylor around & lights up at the sound of her voice. It's pretty funny but annoying sometimes when I can't get Morgan to eat or nap because she can hear her sissy somewhere else in the house.

Whee!!

Well, after a long, miserable weekend due to the nasty flu vaccine....I finally got my baby girl back!! She loves her new walker....







After Morgan got pulled around the house in her walker (note the Stroller Strides red band on her right side...hee-hee!) we went outside to play!







"Oohhh, is that a clover?"






"Can I touch it?"





"What's the yellow one called?"




"Mmm..this one tastes good!"
