Morgan's First Spaghetti Supper

Morgan is a fan of spaghetti. At least the mess stayed on the high chair. I'm not so sure I'm going to be so lucky when we start learning to eat with actual utensils...

Morgan Shares Her Snacks

Nephews

We're proud of our nephews. I just wanted to post these cute and funny pictures of our nephew Rhodes who is 7 and John Reed who is 1 week old! And we are looking forward to adding another nephew to the family in May!

Funny Girl

Let me set this up for you. Morgan likes to play with this silver make-up brush that she pulls out of the bathroom cabinet. It's the Clinque silver tube brush that comes with every "free gift" set - you ladies know what I'm talking about. Today, Morgan walked around the house with it sticking out of her mouth for literally 30 minutes. She would take it out for a few, but stick it right back in. This may be one of those "you had to be there" moments, but I just got tickled at it. Maybe you'll enjoy too!

John Reed Trusty, III

The world welcomed John Reed Trusty, III yesterday at 5:40ish pm. He weighed 7 lbs 9 oz and has TONS of hair. They say he looks like a good mix of both mom and dad. Everyone is doing well. Morgan is pumped to have a little cuz to boss around soon! We also found out over Thanksgiving that Russell and Mandi are going to have a baby boy in May. So Morgan is going to be surrounded by boy cousins. She's going to have lots of protection, so to all you future boyfriends out there - BEWARE...

Photo Frustration...

We had the perfect settings for a Christmas photo session today. Morgan was in a delightful mood. We were free of any bruises or eczema breakouts, and she looked TOO cute in her little Christmas dress. The sun was out, and I just knew we were going to get "the photo" in no time. I'd have those Christmas cards ordered by December 1st. Yeah, right. We had 2 main issues - #1 getting Morgan to stay still and #2 getting Morgan to actually look at the camera. She was a trip throughout the whole thing so it was hard to get mad at her. Here are some funny outtakes from our session today.

Happy Thanksgiving!

We wish everyone save travels and happy eating! Morgan is excited for her first taste of dressing (her mama's favorite)!

C Saves the Day

It was a rough week in the Trusty household. Baby girl came down with a number of ailments, including her first ear infections. Yes, plural. Poor girl got double ear infections! Matt and I tagged team staying home with Morgan for 2 days, but we both had a lot going on at work. So C came in and saved the day when Morgan still wasn't feeling better. She stayed home with Morgan Thursday and Friday. I found the below picture on my camera this morning that C must have taken. Looks like they had some fun together even though poor girl didn't feel well. Thanks so much C - we really appreciate you!

Mama's bad habits

Morgan may be picking up on some of her mama's bad habits - like talking on the phone too much and watching too much TV. This morning, Morgan sat completely still for nearly 30 minutes watching Jack's Big Music Show. She's NEVER done that. She usually tops out at 10 minutes of a Baby Einstein. And she's starting holding the phone up to her ear like she's talking. My guess is she'll be blogging in no time!

Quick Update

Ever since the walking started, we've been busy! You have to watch this little one closely these days. Here are just some quick random pics. Morgan will pull all the toys out of her basket, then crawl into it. Pretty funny stuff. She's also loving her outdoor swing these days!
