Our Little Bumble Bee

This morning I took Morgan to Studio One in the mall. All I wanted were a couple pictures of Morgan in her bumble bee costume, but boy...she wasn't having it!! She DOES NOT like her costume this year. I think it is the tulle skirt and the fur around the neck that irritates her. I couldn't even get her to keep her wings or headband on. This really might be the only pictures we get of her in the costume because I don't forsee her letting us put the costume back on. She pretty much screamed the entire time the costume was on. Such an unhappy little bee!! I even brought some smarties along, because candy usually makes her happy...not this morning!

Oh well, we got a couple pictures of her 2nd halloween. Maybe by next halloween she will be crazy about wearing a costume?!?

We have a funfilled weekend planned. Tonight we are going to YMCA's Halloween Fun Fest, tomorrow evening is Boo at the Zoo and Sunday is our chuch's halloween carnival. Lots of opportunities to wear her costume if she liked it, but we will just opt for a halloween shirt and jeans. I don't think I will bring the costume along.

If I happen to get more pictures of Morgan dressed in her complete costume, I will post...but don't hold your breath!!

Baby Tumbler

This summer we enrolled Morgan in a Little Gym class. The class was at 8 a.m. on Saturday mornings. Morgan is not really a morning person. It takes her awhile to wake up, so this class time was not ideal for her. She was very clingy to mommy and daddy, especially at the beginning of class. She didn't like the structured part which consisted of sitting in a circle, singing songs, playing with bells, etc. She would have been happier if she could have walked right into class and starting climbing on the equipment, etc. She did enjoy the second half of class, which was just that...running around, playing on equipment and playing with balls. Her favorite equipment was the balance beam and the climbing wall. We did practice forward rolls with her at class and at home. She has now begun rolling around on her own. It is so cute. Here is a link of her showing off her skills. We will check back into getting her enrolled in Little Gym at some point in the future, we just won't choose the 8 a.m. class.

Morgan steals baby gift :)

On Wednesday evening we came home to find a UPS package at the front door from my old co-worker, Amy and her husband, Jeff. After dinner we were sitting around and I decided to let Morgan open the package. I don't believe she has tried to unwrap a gift since her birthday and at that time she still needed a lot of our help to get the gifts unwrapped. Bryan and I sat back and watched her attempt to open the gift and she did great unwrapping the box all by herself. This Christmas should be a lot of fun!! It didn't take long for Bryan and I to realize the gift she was opening was for our little boy. Bryan kept whispering to me "The gift is for the baby." I realized that but Bryan thought it was going to make her sad that it wasn't something for her. Lesson learned - we are going to have to give her some little surprises when we bring things home for the baby.:) I bought her a Big Sis gift earlier this week to give her in the hospital from her baby brother! Anyways, she didn't get sad at all and she didn't even realize the gift wasn't for her. It was the cutest pair of grey and orange Nike shoes. Morgan LOVES shoes and wanted me to put them on her right away. They were size 5, which she still fits into so I did let her wear them around the house. We always find her in our closet trying our shoes on. She does pretty good walking in my shoes, even my heels. Trying to walk in Bryan shoes/boots are quite the challenge for her. They are just to big and heavy but she loves to try!! Anyways, Morgan loved the gift and I know our little boy will too!! It was so hard to get the shoes off of her for bath time that night but we eventually did. While I was bathing her Bryan hid the shoes in our little boy's closet and will save them for him. Thanks so much Amy and Jeff!!

Today I went to my doctor for my 27 week appointment and everything is still going great. My doctor said she will plan my c-section at the beginning of November (probably my next appt) for the beginning of January. Unless there are early signs of labor, we will stick with the date that she schedules. As far as a name, we still haven't decided but Graham is the front runner because we like the name and if that is the name we decide on we will give him Bryan's initials (GBB).
