Once upon a Morgan

Our sweet little girl has disappeared in the aftermath of her six-month shots. Today, she had her appointment up in the city. I am out of sick days/leave, so Daddy did this round solo. Overall, he said she did pretty well and didn't cry for too long after the four shots.


In the way of statistics, she is now weighing in at 16lbs, 15.4oz and is 26.5 inches long. As for her progress and health, she gets two thumbs up. We have the go-ahead to start introducing her to new foods and to even use a food processor if we so desire. We've been transitioning into things like oatmeal and mixed baby foods anyway. She loves her some 'people food'.


Morg is up on her knees with her arms extended quite frequently now, she likes to rock back and forth. She'll scoot across a room, too, when she sees something she would like. It is sure fun to watch! Tyler and I take turns tapping our foot on the floor to see who she'll scoot to. She still is very interested in Kibbles and poor Kib takes it all in stride and is SO good with her. I'll have to post a video of the two once it is uploaded to YouTube.

One of my current favorites is rocking her to sleep at night. We have a routine where we'll have a bottle, go in and turn Frankie the Frog on, and then she'll wrap her arms around my neck and we'll rock back and forth for a bit. My absolute favorite is when she rests her head on my shoulder and falls asleep. Well, that and when we go into the room and I turn off the light and she automatically looks up at the ceiling for the stars that Frankie projects! <3

We start our softball games next week, so that will be an entirely different experience for her! When it is too chilly out, she'll stay at gma Leslie's house. However, I can't wait for her to experience the joys of the outdoors and softball! I just wish Mother Nature would cooperate.
