Morgan lately

So I have been a total slacker when it comes to blogging. I have been taking random pictures now and then so I thought I would post some. Morgan is so much fun and a blast to hang out with, most of the time. She has about 25 words she uses consistently and picks up new words all the time. Some times it's tricky figuring out what she is trying to say but it's so fun when you understand.

She has been getting better at using a fork or spoon to eat with. She wants to do everything herself. However, on this night, her fork was not getting the food in fast enough; she dug in with her hands and it shows. I rarely put a bib on her anymore but I'm sure glad I did this night.

She was pretty proud of herself for eating all her dinner.

We had a fall festival at the elementary school I work at so I took Morgan. She was a little young for the activities but enjoyed watching all the kids and sitting on the fire truck.


The other day I was trying to see if I could interest her in playing in the leaves in the front yard. She wasn't too impressed. When she realized she couldn't eat them, she decided they were worthless and tried to go back inside.


Last Sunday was Morgan's first week in Nursery. Yup, she's 18months. I went to drop her off and she said, "Bye Bye Mommy." After holding back the tears, I went to enjoy a peaceful, uninterrupted Sunday School. She did wonderfully. They said she played, ate her snack, and did the hand movements to the songs. I was so proud. I was trying to get her to hold the picture she drew but she just kept putting it down. So here she is and the picture is on the table behind her.

On to Thanksgiving. Here we are at the Sullengers where we enjoyed a wonderful meal and great company. Cara had it decorated so cute and we had a great time. Thanks guys.

Morgan of course was into everything. Here she got caught trying to pull out more toys.

Kash and Brent were wonderful and did all the clean up. The ladies and Travis, got to watch football and the kiddo's. Travis didn't really help, he just pretended in this picture.

On Friday, we went down to our favorite dive in Holly Springs, Phillip's Grocery. While waiting of others to arrive, we took a little walk. We thought we would catch some shots of little miss independent. We're lucky if she'll hold our hands for 10 seconds. And of course she can hold her drink by herself.
