Morgan to the Rescue!

Today when me and Morgan woke up from our nap, I went to put our dog back out in her pin and I found this little dog in her pin. Her name was Sade and she stayed with us for a few hours until her owner could get home. Morgan was in heaven. She wants a little dog so bad. Once we dropped her off at her home, Morgan cried and cried. But I was strong and did not give in. We are NOT getting another dog. Two dogs and a cat are enough! Just glad we were able to track her owners down!

Four Year Check Up!!!

Today I took Morgan to her four year checkup. Wow, is all I can say. She weighs 44.5 lbs and is 44 inches tall. She is off the charts in her weight and height. Even for a 5 year old she would be off the chart and for a 6 year old she would be in the 50th percentile. Her doctor says she is going to be very tall. Everyone already thinks she is 5 or 6. For her daddy's shake, I hope she slows down or he will be beating the boys away with a stick. The only bad part of the visit was the four shots that she had to get. Ouch!! But after her appointment we called dad and he said she could go and get a treat. Ten dollars for every shot. So we went to Toys R Us and spend her loot. She walked away with some cute things. She is finally realizing that you can get one big item or many small. She is going with the many same items. Before we headed to the toys store we stopped by the Harbor so she could play in the water. She has been wanting to do this for awhile so since we were so close after her doctors appointment we stopped by. All I have to say, boy was it HOT!!! We had a really good day even though we had to get those stupid shots. Love you big girl. Mommy is so proud of you for doing so well today!

Fun days of summer!

The Gang's All Together

While putting up some books back on Morgan's book shelf I noticed that she had all the Toy Story gang together, Jessie, Woody, Barbie, Ken and Slinky. I asked her what was that all about and she told me that "Mom, they are all best friends and they must all be together or they will be so sad." Well we can't have any sad toys in this house so they will all stay together on the shelf I guess. To funny. These toys sure are lucky to have her looking after them. Sure do love this kid!

Barbie, Jessie, Woody, Slinky and Ken.

Pretty Princess!

Today I was off work and thank goodness because me and Morgan were feeling under the weather. I have a nasty cold and she a bad cough. So Morgan made the call that we were going to stay home in our PJ's all day and just hang out. Sounds great to me! Little did I know what she had in store for me. We played and played and played. Morgan got a hold of my camera while playing dress up princesses as she calls it. Enjoy. Try not to laugh to hard when you get to pretty princess mommy!

Morgan insisted that she take a picture of me. Nice hair!

Happy 4th Birthday Morgan!

I can't believe that my baby girl turned four today. Boy, where does the time go? To help her celebrate her big day my family joined us and we all went to the circus. We all had a wonderful time and I couldn't think of a better way to help her ring in her big day. I love you Morgan. No matter what, you will always be my sweet baby girl.

Black Widow

About a month ago Stephen was out in his shop and I was in bed reading and he came into the house shouting that he just killed a black widow spider in his shop. I was like ya, ya. Well tonight he came in the house saying that he found another one and wanted to know if I wanted to see it before he killed it. So I had to see it to believe it because these things can kill you. They are very poisonous. So when I went out to the shop to see for myself and boy was I shocked when I saw it. I made him kill it before I got close to it or took pictures of it. It is kind of gross but you can see the red hour glass on the bottom side of it. Cool but creepy! I don't think I will be going out in the shop anymore by myself. Yikes!! Just glad it was out there and not in my house. Hope they stay out there!

Notice the red hour glass shape design on the bottom side. That is their trade mark.

Peek A Boo I See You!

This morning I reached into the cabinet in the kitchen to grab Morgan a sippy cup and when I turned my eyes caught this. It freaked me out at first to see two big eyes staring back at me. Woody, is that you?? It is a bag of Toy Story party supplies for Morgan's birthday party. It is a cup that has Woody on it and the bag was positioned just right to look as if Woody was peeking out of it. To funny. Had to share it with everyone.
