hard at work

With parties like that almost each shift who wouldn't want to go to work?

Lessons Learned

1) Baby MUST be checked every half hour during the falling asleep process for naps, because she can somehow manage to poop on demand. nap time = poop time in her mind.

2) unpacking is way more fun than packing (and goes a lot faster too)

3) I have a serious cleaning problem. sitting in the living room of our new house and admiring how much bigger it is I was excited to have more to vacuum. maybe I should see a doctor! haha.

4) driving fast never loses its fun

5) even though waking up at 5:45 in the morning is not fun, it is so great how productive you can be when you do!

6) having your own washer and dryer makes life less stressful and therefore SO much better

7) the older you get, the more you realize how foolish you were when you were younger (and yes, even though I am only 21 this is still true)

8) taking care of 2 babies is harder than hard. i have a new appreciation for stay-at-home moms with multiple kids. thank you!

friend to foe

When I was a little girl I loved computers because I thought they were so cool.

When I grew up I liked computers because with them I could do the things I needed to.

Now I almost hate computers because they take all of David's attention.

And that's how it's done.

you've got a friend in me

"What lovely ears you have! All the better to chew on"

"I like your outfit"

"You've got big cheeks too!"

"Get out of my picture!"

Fun Facts

As Morgan's personality is beginning to unfold, here are some fun things we've learned...

1. She LOVES baths! She gets so excited when you turn on the water and lay her down to undress her. She knows it's coming.


2. When she is starting to wake up in the morning or from a nap, if she sees you with your eyes closed (either laying down or in a chair or something) she will most likely go back to sleep, but if she can't see you or your eyes are open she will cry until you pick her up. Same goes for when she is falling asleep - if you're up she wants to be up too.


3. If you are eating something and holding her, she will look at it and drool.


4. At night she doesn't like it when you sit down - she wants you standing and holding her. She will almost immediately calm down once you get up.


5. She hates the car. She hates it less if she has company in the back with her, but she still does not like it.
