More of four year old photo shoot

Four Year Old Photo Shoot at home.

Before nap Morgan and I went outside in hopes of getting several shots for her four year old photo. After fifteen minutes Morgan was bitten by a mosquitoe and then fell off the swing. These are my favorites. Can you see her modeling career starting early? All I said was, "please smile!!!"

Does she look like a Neville Tiger cheerleader?

Morgan went to cheer camp for a week. Our neighbor Courtland, who is almost ten, went with her. I think they both had a blast. Each day had a theme and Morgan could not stopped talking about being a DIVA since becuase of Diva dress up day.

Thanks Grandma Clark for the birthday present!

A couple mornings ago Morgan was watching T.V. on Patrick's new Diego couch and I placed Patrick beside her. She put her arm around him, kissed his haid softly and loved on him during the show.

Skatetown!!!!

Morgan went to Ethan's birthday party at Skatetown. Ethan was in Mrs. Bonin's pre-k4 at River Oaks. The photo was taken at home before the party. I was not brave enough to bring my camera. Overall I would say that Morgan had a great time at the party and she did very little skating. Most of the children were running around in their socks so she wanted to follow them. When it was time to do the limbo she put her skates back on, went under one time, hit the bar and then cried about it for five minutes. She said she would never be good at it. I sure hope she tries things more than once as she grows up. While there I spoke to her new teacher, Mrs. Lisa Harp. I wanted to know how her first week went and she said it was great. Lisa said she was a great helper and a fast learner. Morgan came home everyday this first week with a smiley face and pulled from the treasure chest twice. Yeah Morgan!!!! You Go Girl!!!!

More of 1st day of Pre-K4

Nana was the third grade teacher at River Oaks. She always started Morgan's days off right and ended them with a smile. We couldn't ask for more.

Morgan walked in, sat down at her seat and began playing with playdough as though she had been doing this for years.

1st day of Pre-K 4 at River Oaks was successful!

Morgan loves to pose with Bogie. As always, Bogie was a good sport.

Morgan began calling Bogie, getting her excited and ready to play. A few seconds later, Morgan slipped and fell. She cried for about five minutes. I wiped her off and the only scrape was on her booty. I told her I would fix it with medicine and I put Vaseline on it. Eventually, the tears dried up and we were able to go to school.

She loves to do cheers and gymnastic moves. This is Morgan doing a toe touch in the kitchen before we left for school. She jumped several times.

Our Redneck Swimming Pool!!!

Morgan asked all day long if she could go swimming and I kept putting her off by saying maybe. Patrick was still sick so I knew we were not leaving the house to go swimming but I did not have the heart to tell her because she had her swimming suit on since about 2:00 this afternoon. After dinner I suggested that we go swimming in the bathtub since all other pools were closed for the evening. She was such a good sport.

We decided to go swimming since it was so hot outside. Even little Katie enjoyed the pool!

Dallas Aquarium

Saturday morning we went downtown to the Aquarium. I loved it.

Morgan and Christian waving to the camera from the train. We waited a little too late to actually ride it so we had to stop for pictures instead.

Yes, everyone enjoyed the basketball arcade game.

Weekend with friends in Dallas!

Yes! We did it! We actually ventured on a five hour drive to Dallas to visit friends. The vacation was wonderful. Joey and Beth let us stay in their guest suite for the weekend. Nana and Gramps agreed to keep Patrick, who was sick, so we could travel with just Morgan. Below are some photos of Friday night at Gattytown. As you can see, we had a blast.

Morgan was convinced that she was a kitty cat. I feel pretty sure that she was a butterfly. We were blown away with the ability to paint so quickly on the children's faces.

Joey, Beth and Kate, who will be two in November.
