I just thought she looked so pathetic holding the bowl and sound asleep. If you're wondering why I went walking and left her while she was sick.....I just had a procedure done on my leg to get rid of my vaicose veins and am suppose to be walking a lot to prevent a blood clot. Normally, I wouldn't have just left my little sick baby girl, but Daddy is always a good caregiver when Mommy is busy! 
Kate and I went on a walk and came home to find Morgan awake from her nap and sitting in Daddy's Mustang. She was so cute just sitting there very still.
My grandfather (aka Pappy) celebrated his 85th birthday September 1st. So we had a party for him at my parent's house. I got some really cute pictures of Kate playing ball with him. She had fun and I know he enjoyed playing with her. I love that I have these pictures to show Kate someday and talk about Pappy to her and tell her what a wonderful person he is.
If you're wondering why Morgan looks like she's been in a fist fight, well it's because I'm an awful mother and wasn't watching her fall out of her little car she was sitting in face first on the driveway. Poor baby. I was watering the plants and had my back turned to her to hear a sound I'll never forgot....her faceplanting the concrete! She had a blooding nose and lip but got over it pretty quickly. Anyway, here we are again at Pappy's bday party.
Pappy opening his goodies!
One night Leland let Kate play a matching game on his computer. He called me in there and told me she is did it all my herself without his help. She has a very intense focused look on her face. Smarty pants!
Normally I bathe the girls together every night but Morgan got her bath early and went to bed. Kate got to stay up late that night and took a bath in Mommy's jacuzzi! She thought it was the coolest thing ever!
Helping Daddy wash the car and still in her jammies. 
I love this picture! Kate loves to take showers. I got out to dry off and came to get her out and saw this. I had to snap a photo because I thought it was so cute....and good for blackmail of course. 
Ok, so I'm late posting. Her birthday was August 29th and I have been so lazy about blogging. But here it is. Leland and I took her to the Arboretum today (Kate is at Tassy and G's) and I took her one year photos. We had to capture this wonderful milestone in her life!
Ok, so we had a party for her the weekend before her birthday at our house. These photos are in no particular order.....and I'm really disappointed that I didn't get some better pictures. I didn't even take a picture of the cake I made for her! I guess I was too busy hosting. 
this is what our playroom looked like a few minutes after our friends showed up! EEEk!

Enjoying her first taste of sugar!
I was really hoping she would just smash it in her face and make a big mess, but she was very clean about it. Ha!
Opening presents. She really just wanted to tear up tissue paper while Kate opened all her presents
Posing with mommy. I feel terrible, but I didn't get a single picture of Leland with her or a family shot for that matter
On her actual birhtday we opened a few presents from Mommy and Daddy. Kate was super excited about this one.
Morgan, you had
your 1 year check-up and you are as healthy as can be, praise the Lord!

Morgan I love how affectionate you are. You love to wrap your arms around our necks and hug us or lay your head on our shoulders. You play really well by yourself so mommy can get things done! You love your big sister and she loves you so much! You are starting to show a bit of a temper when you don't get your way or when Kate takes something from you. You babble a lot and say Mama, Dada, and I think you are saying Sadie but not sure. You are the BEST sleeper and I thank God for that daily! You still take 2 naps a day about 1.5-2 hours each. Bedtime is 7:30pm and awake time is 7:30am. You are a great little eater. You are not walking yet, but cruising around furniture or walking if holding on to our hands. You are just a blessing and a beautiful baby and we can't imagine life without you! Happy 1st Birthday and we look forward to many more to come! We love you, Mommy and Daddy
