We had lots of friends and family over for Morgan’s 3rd Birthday. Her birthday party theme was Diego! It did end up a little on the chilly side but we all had a great time!

Nothin’ Like Lickin’ The Spoon!

August 22nd, 2009

I was baking cake or cookies one day back in May and Morgan helped me out. As a reward, she always gets to lick the spoon. It’s her favorite part!

A Visit From My Nephew

August 22nd, 2009

In April of this year, my nephew Mikey came to the East Coast for about a month. He stayed with my sister Athena in Groton, NY. Mikey is my older Michael’s son. They live in California. Mom, Morgan and I managed to visit him one weekend while he was here. We really enjoyed seeing him. It had been a few years since we saw him last! In the first picture we have Mikey and my niece Athena. My niece is also from California and is the daughter of my older sister Regina. My niece Athena lives in Groton, NY as well.

Happy Easter!

August 22nd, 2009

One of the fun things we did with Morgan this year was we had her leave carrots for the Easter bunny. She drew a picture for him and we wrote a thank you note on the picture to the Easter Bunny thanking him for coming to our house.

Dying Easter Eggs

August 22nd, 2009

Morgan did a great job helping me dye some Easter eggs. If you’ve never get the Dudley kit with the disposable cups, don’t! They were real flimsy and we spilt several cups while putting the eggs in. Use regular mugs or something!!

Morgan had these great little dresses so I decided to take some home portraits of her for springtime. It was fun watching her pose and be silly!

Who Doesn’t Love Finger Painting?

August 22nd, 2009

One of Morgan’s favorite things to do is finger paint. I think she enjoys playing in the paints more then painting itself, but at least she has a good time.

Since I have been in Vermont I have never built a snowman! Well finally I was able to build one with Morgan and Brad. We had a great time. Of course we had to make him on the silly side! This is something we are sure to repeat every year!
