Morgan's Singing Debut

Morgan has become more and more chatty. But every time we get the video camera out, she just stares and stares at the camera. This is the best footage we have of her yet.

So without further a do.
Here is Morgan singing Peanut Butter and Jelly.

Mega-Saucer

Morgan has started to really enjoy standing up. So Ariella thought we would try out the Mega-Saucer that Karen and Shawn gladly donated.



Morgan just loves hanging out in it and observing her suroundings.

Morgan's first trip to the Lake

Last week, we took Morgan up to Connecticut to see Andy's parents, and meet the rest of the Saucier and Truax clans.

On Saturday, Morgan took her first official dip in the lake...





On Sunday, Morgan had time to hang out with Henry and Alex...





On Sunday afternoon, Morgan put on her yellow party dress and got ready to meet our extended family and friends.







Meeting and greeting is a lot for a little girl to take. So by mid-afternoon, Morgan was ready for a nap, and Ruth was more than happy to take a break from catering duty to try rocking-the-baby duty.



After a quick nap, Morgan was ready for one last family photo...



The rest of the week at the Lake was spent relaxing, enjoying the nice weather, and taking a whole bunch more photos...





Morgan @ 3 months

As of August 3, the first quarter-year of Morgan's life is in the books.

In July, Morgan mastered the fine art of drooling, she blows bubbles constantly, and has learned a new word: "BBBBBLLLLLLP".

Here's her 3-month photo:

Morgan's first Road Trip

Catching up on some long overdue blogging...

A few weeks ago, we took Morgan on her first trip outside of the Garden State. Destination: Schenectady, NY.

Our first stop was our friends Susan and Keith's house. Their little girl Ava was VERY excited to meet Morgan. First thing Saturday morning, Ava helped Sue give Morgan a bottle...




In the afternoon, we spent some time by the pool...



And, just before bed time, Ava and Morgan finished off the day with some tummy time.



Speaking of tummy time, on Sunday morning, we stopped by to see our friends Jeff and Nicole, and Morgan's old pal Cooper. Here, the two babies compare tummy time techniques: Morgan opts for the "double-elbow peek-a-boo", while Cooper is a traditionalist who likes the "classic flop".
