Elmo!

Morgan and Hayes got to go see Elmo Live this morning. We don't watch a lot of Elmo in our house (yet) but I thought she would have fun. SHE DID. Since we were early, Morgan took the opportunity to run the circumference of the coliseum about 20 times. That girl loves to run free. Once the show started, she was glued. Not sure she blinked during the first 30 minutes.
Not too sure what to think right at first.... Then, like I said - eyes glued to the stage. Morgan did not appreciate my camera corrupting her view.

Feeding Elmo an animal cracker before the show.

Hayes and Morgan playing with Elmo - isn't sharing sweet?

Dirty Girl

This picture was taken after a hard afternoon on the playground at St. Francis. Note the dirt inside the nose, on the legs, etc. The pigtails have seen better days as well.

Sleep Positions

I went to peek at Morgan last night since I got home after she went to bed. This is how I found her. I was taking these pictures in the dark, so they aren't great but it's still hilarious!

Morgan's First Trip to the Beach

We just got back from Morgan's beach trip. We went with our good friends, the McCarra's. Morgan and Hayes both had a big time. Morgan absolutely loved the beach - sand and all! I am not a big fan of sand myself, and I just had to suck it up when Morgan's sandy self would come plop down in my lap. But watching how much fun she was having made it all worth while. Heck, I got to just lay back and chill most of the time. Morgan would actually sit still for a while playing. Then good ole Dad would take her into the ocean and let the waves crash on her. She LOVED that. She was also fond of people watching. She would just sit in my lap and watch all the other kids and wave at everybody walking by. Below are some of the pictures. We were glad to finally see that Morgan and Hayes have actually started to notice each other. They had a big time playing together our last night. They chased each other around the condo for an hour after dinner (an hour past bedtime), and Morgan even shared some of her toys with Hayes. The last picture is Morgan kissing Hayes good night - so sweet!

Let's Go to the Zoo

Morgan went on her first visit to the zoo yesterday. She had a BLAST. She's always loved animals, and she's always loved running free. So the zoo was a win win. She seemed most enamored with the really big animals - the giraffes, elephants, orangutans, etc. The last stop was the farm animals. Morgan stepped in an ant bed when looking at the goats and roosters. We panicked and started swatting off the ants, then Matt poured water all over her feet. We were freaking out and she was laughing. After that we called it a day. But all in all, it was a fun trip and we will definitely go back!
