Bald

Well, tonight was Neal's last game. I'm excited to say that I'm not a single mother anymore (well almost! He has films tomorrow and we have varsity on Friday and if they win he will still help with that but he won't be practicing and coming home late!) Every season Neal makes a promise to his players...they go undefeated, they shave his head. In 12 seasons this is the second time that he has had to shave it (with 2 near misses!) Most of you have read how many brownies I have had to make this season too (a record! I took the easy way out tonight...Family Fare!!!!) Neal's team (7th grade Zeeland East) beat Mona Shores 34-0!! So that means...my husband is now bald!!!! Morgan thinks it is pretty interesting and just stares at Dada now! So funny...she evens rubs it!!!!! I'm not quite sure what I think either!!!

Great season guys!!!!! We look forward to next season!!!

15 Month Stats

This morning we had Morgan's 15 month check up. We only had to have two shots and Morgan did really well (better than me again!) She is growing like she should. She weighed 21.5 lbs (25th percent-she lost a pound since the last time we went....the dr. didn't say too much about it. They did weigh her 3 times to make sure it was right!!) She also was 30.5 inches long. She has been a little on the crabby side and not sleeping real well at night. I just blamed it on teeth...oh no! Ear infection!!! So we are on meds for that and we have to go back in four weeks to get the second influenza shot and they will check them then. I feel like the worst parent ever!!! Everything else was good!

Lynema Family Hayride

Last night we had our annual Lynema Family Hayride (my mom's side of the family). I think this was probably the tenth year, however, Morgan's first since we didn't make last years. If we counted right there were about 31 of us. We met for supper and then went on the hayride. Morgan was SUPER tired because she didn't take a very good nap. She enjoyed most of it but you could tell she was getting sick of it towards the end. A 1/2 mile from my aunt & uncle's she fell asleep! It didn't last long though!!! Morgan all bundled up!!!!

After the hayride Morgan decided it would better to stay inside with Aunt Sarah. That way she could get rid of some of her clothes and be able to walk again!!!

It was a fun night for a hayride!!!

Only in OC

This morning pulling out of the driveway Neal says "don't look!" I was thinking Morgan had done something...oh no...this is what I saw!!!! It had just walked through our front yard! I'm thinking it would look nicer in my freezer!!! :)

Golden Month Day

Today our little girl turned 15 months old!!! It is so hard for me to imagine when she was little anymore...15 months ago we were calling everyone (right about now) and announcing that she was here. I have been working on her scrapbook and it is hard to remember her being that tiny!!! She is such a blessing!!!

Morgan has been busy learning this month!!!! She has become a "talker" (I really don't know where she would get that from!!!!) She says a ton of words now (or at least it sounds like them!) She has learned the sign for "more". Tonight at supper she signed "more" and pointed to what she wanted!!! I call her my little sponge...she learns something new everyday!!!! We go Monday for her doctor appointment and I'm anxious to see where she is at!!!

We are so blessed to have her in our life! Happy Month Day!

She fell asleep before we got home...so this picture will have to do!

Yummy Supper!

No words needed!!! She did get another bath after this!!! Chicken Alfredo in the hair! YUM!

Mowing with Daddy!

Yesterday was the second time Morgan has been on the low mower. She has never liked it before however now she really enjoys it!!!
