Morgan's Napping Buddy

Ariella has started Morgan on a new nap habit of falling asleep by herself in the crib. So Morgan wanders around the crib a bit and then finally will fall alseep. This is where she falls sleep each time.



Yesterday she literally fell asleep on the bear, she was hunched over her head to the bear's head, sleeping sitting up.



After her naps, we find her sitting next to the bear just waiting to be collected for some more play time. (perhaps they are swapping secrets)

Not quite big enough

Morgan's Grandmother and Mayie want to make sure that she stays warm. Unfortunately, Morgan isn't quite big enough for the clothes......



But she likes them just the same!

Morgan's favorite ride

Ok, so we know we shouldn't encourage this. But how can you help yourself when she is having so much fun?

Morgan has a nemesis!

It's been a rough month for Morgan. She was sick over Christmas and took a good 2 weeks to get over the cold. She started a new daycare and promptly got a stomach bug. Fortunately, Morgan is finally starting to feel more like herself. Morgan has requested no photos while she has been ill but wanted to share a web site that her Aunt Lindsay created.

Enjoy!

Another First for Morgan

Morgan says Hello!

Morgan at 8 months

Morgan hit the 8-month on Saturday.

This month wasn't really all that eventful for Morgan. I mean, all she did was get her first tooth, get her first really nasty cold (and her first nebulizer), learned how to sit herself back up, learned how to crawl, learned how to pull herself up to a standing position, celebrated her first Christmas, unwrapped a mountain of presents, and visited with the Saucier and Sakraida families for the holidays.

But other than that, it was a pretty quiet month. :-)

Crawling & Cooper

By Sunday after Christmas, Morgan had gotten over her cold and was ready to practice her crawling skills. After all, her pal Cooper was coming over to visit -- and he's a got a reputation in baby circles for being a very fast crawler.



Now that she's more mobile, Morgan is discovering all sorts of new places to explore. Underneath the dining room table is one of her favorites.



When Cooper showed up, he and Morgan discovered that they both got toy giraffes for Christmas.



Morgan: "Hey, Cooper which giraffe leg do you like to chew on?" Cooper: "I'm a fan of the back left leg." Morgan: "No kidding! Me too!"


Morgan: "Umm... excuse me, Cooper... that's MY dad you're crawling on! Hands off, bub."



After playing for a while, Morgan and Cooper got to open a few presents. The presents were great, but ripping up all the tissue paper was definitely the highlight.
