Miss Morgan

Summer is getting into full swing around here, although maybe not the weather. School is out, the sun is up most of the day...and so are the kids. June 21st brings many wonderful things to this week. Not only is it my birthday week, but the beginning of darker mornings. You may be thinking, "what's so great about that?" The longer it's darker the longer everyone sleeps.....

Morgan started to be able to hold her own weight up this week. She will stand for 30-40 seconds and then collapse, but she is getting stronger! She really enjoys chewing on plastic spoons. I think that they are just the right size for gripping with her tiny hands. She continues to eat rice cereal and is doing much better keeping more of it in her mouth! She brings happiness to each day with her contentment and freely given smiles. Kids can definitely teach you a thing or two about loving and having fun.

A Little Update

I haven't written anything about the kids in a long time. Here is a quick update...
Merritt is learning and using lots of words lately. Mark is really excited that he is putting words together to make small sentances "daddy, help please." He is also taking words and adding "ing." For example, walking, reading, crying. A couple weeks ago Mark was reading "Mike Mulligan and his Steam Shovel" and Merritt pointed to Mary Anne and said "crying," as little tears feel from her face in the picture. He has also taken to singin to Morgan at bed and naptime. It is VERY cute. In case you did not already know, they are now sharing a bedroom.


Morgan is very strong! She has no problem holding her head up and has abs of steal. She loves to kick frantically on the changing table and she smiles incessantly. Mark was able to record her laughing non stop on the video camera and hopefully he will post that soon. She is now taking 2 naps and a catnap before dinner. She sleeps great at night.

Mark and I are well I have been working a lot lately. We are both looking forward to some fun with our freinds in Lake Chelan this June! We are counting the days...

OOPS!

I was going to post the family photos from the past month, but due to technical difficulties....I will e-mail them to everyone. So, if you did not get a copy of the image e-mail, let me know.
