Teeth Brushing

How cute is this! Morgan is brushing his 4 teeth and 1/4 of two other teeth. He loves to walk around the house with his toothbrush and brush his teeth BY HIMSELF. He's getting to that point to where I will try to hold his hand when he walks and he will jerk it away. He wants to do it all on his own... big boy!

Zoo Day!

Last week we went to the Dallas Zoo with about 10 other babies (and their moms). Look closely at this turtle. Is he/she dead? His head is totally buried under the mud. I stood there for a long time and he didn't move once... ewwwe! Look, Morgan even looks worried.

I would have pictures to post of Morgan on the pony ride. But, he totally freaked out. So, they took him off the pony after a few steps. Becky has the whole thing on video.

Ravoli on the Mind

On 3-29-08 Morgan fed himself for the first time. Well, at least that's the closest thing I can call it. For some reason he thinks that all of his food is a hat and it must go on his head.

He's also learned to hi-five. The video actually shows it as a low-five!

Sarah's 1st B-day Party

Morgan, as I'm sure you've figured out by now, is quite the ladies man. This is one of his little girlfriends, Sarah, at her 1st birthday party on 4-30-08. Her grandmother bought an amazing pink house for her backyard.

We "drove" Morgan's car to her house since we are only a few blocks away. Sarah's Mom Kimberly gave away a really great monogramed gift bag with a crown, septor and other goodies. Here's our little prince.

Little Miss Nat Nat started walking the same day as Mr. Morgan on May 1st!

Morgan is a walking Man!

Morgan is a walking man now! He visiting his daddy at the office earlier that day. We went by the bank first and they gave Morgan his first lolipop ever. It was actually his first piece of candy ever as well. That must have given him the strength that he needed. It was almost like he just saved up all this walking for when his dad came home. These videos were taken a few minutes after Dan walked through the door at hom. And, since I always have my camera on me. These are Morgan's ACTUAL FIRST STEPS! It happened on May 1st, 2008 at about 6pm. Morgan is 1 week shy of 14 months old here. Dan has also taught him to head bang and do the "Stevie Wonder" with his head. You can see the "Stevie Wonder" in one of the videos.

Out with the Girls

I got together with some of the Gateway girls back in February. Here are some of the pics.

Kiss the Baby!

This was when his top two teeth were just starting to come in.

It was always my dream to have a leaning floor mirror in my dining room. This makes sense for anyone that knows me. I love decorating, design and architecture. So, when I bought this house five years ago, I immediatly started the search for the perfect mirror. We have a giant 6' x 9' mirror leaning up against a wall in the dining room. It used to be spotless. Nowdays it is covered in drool and baby fingerprints. I actually remember getting irritated a few years back when one of my friends brought her kiddo over and didn't bother to wipe off all the fingerprints left behind. Ahhhh... how naive I was!

Morgan loves to look at his "twin" in the mirror and give him a big wet open mouthed kiss. Here's a cute video taken back on 2-7-08 when he was only 11 months old.

Morgan Scared of Tickle Me Elmo

So, today I am without child! Yea! My mom is watching Mr. Morgan overnight so that I can get some stuff done. Finally! I am in desperate need to update the blog. So, my next eight postings will cover some past events over the last month.



Here's an example of special and unique Morgan is. Most kids are out there clammoring to get their hands on a Tickle Me Elmo. Not Mr. Morgan! Watch the video and you'll see what I mean. This is from 4-2-08.
