First big trip!

Morgan and I were supposed to fly to Jenny's in February, but Mother Nature had different plans for us and made us stay home in the snow. Jenny and I were sad, but it all worked out great because then Mom was able to join M and I on our trip in June. (Thank goodness she did, because traveling with a little one while pregnant is a LOT of work and Trevor was working so couldn't go!)  Mom helped entertain and hold Morgan on the plane, and overall he was a great little traveler and the trip was great.  Well, except when his diaper leaked all over my lap on both flights. It looked like I had an accident, but luckily I was all dry by the time we got off the plane. :)  Enjoy some pictures of our first big trip!
Waiting to board the plane!

Checking things out with Grandma

The window shade was tons of fun!

Reading

Blurry because we were on a moving tram, but I thought it was hilarious that
Morgan was holding on to the pole. Safety first!

Holding hands with Jude on the way to Jenny's house

Learning all about construction with Jude

Farming with Cole

Aunt Jenny has lots of fun pillows to play on!

Even more fun when Cole and Jude take all of the pillows
and cushions off the couch and play on the floor!
Mom, Jenny and I

Jenny snapped this great picture of Morgan. I just love it!


Listening intently to the flight attendant's pre-flight instructions
The trip wore him out! He had a good nap on the way home.

Thanks for the fun time Boisseau family!!  Can't wait to do it again...in a little while. :)



Summer

Well, summer came and went and I didn't post one single thing!  I thought being at home with Morgan almost every day would provide so much free time...I thought wrong! We were busy with play dates, music class, story time, a trip to visit Jenny and family (pictures in a separate post), spending time in Valley Falls, and I don't even know what else. Time flies when you're having fun, I guess. :)  Here are some of my favorite summer 2014 moments:

Neighborhood watch

Family pic before Trevor and I had a much needed date night

Spaghetti!
Morgan giving a little love for Father's Day/Trevor's birthday

Cooking

He LOVES his swing!



My boys waiting for my doctor to call us back for the
sonogram where we didn't find out baby #2's gender :)

Morgan and I at his 12-month check up

Babysitting a friend

I think he will be a good big brother

Loving the water table

I have no words for this one!

Rhythm sticks at music class

At the Crayola store in Crown Center

Crown Center fun with Gracie and Audrey
(they enjoyed standing on the air vents and making their dresses twirl, Morgan just enjoyed running!)

Father's Day with Grandad

The best I could get.

I really like this car/stroller!

After the 4th of July parade

Yes, that is my 13 month old in a baby rocker. He climbed in all by himself.

One of the first spoon attempts.

The hand is so much more efficient.
He's all boy, as demonstrated in the next few pictures...



So proud of himself for climbing in this box

This is what happens when you have sunscreen on your
head/hair and then play hide and seek under a blanket.

Patiently waiting for story time to start

Ready to go but oh so tired, too!

Waiting nicely at my doctor appointment 

Coloring

Sitting in the chair Pa Keith 'willed' to Morgan for his new room.
The blanket behind him was made by Grandma Dorie.
