The happenings...

It's funny how things for me seem to happen in groups. I feel like I go for a couple of weeks with nothing big going on to share...and then BOOM --- lots going on. In the next week...Matt turns the big 4.0! Morgen turns one this weekend and my brother's birthday is also in the mix. Since we'll have family in town this weekend for Morgen's party...my brother & Matt will also have mini - celebrations since we won't see each other for another month. Since it was Matt's big year...I didn't want his birthday to get lost in the shuffle with Morgen's ---- he is going to have a bunch of small birthday parties! =)  Last weekend he celebrated with all his buddies at work. He typically has Tuesday's off...so I had a fun day of surprises planned for him. We got a babysitter & had our 1st couples massage...and we ended the night at the OLD Spaghetti factory with a few of his oldest buddies. He had NO clue ---- which was the best part because he is SOO hard to surprise! And then next weekend we will celebrate his birthday with his family.

Here is a picture from dinner ~

I have spent the past few day's making cookies & things for Morgen's birthday party this weekend. My Mom & Dad will be town along with my brother & his girlfriend.

Morgen has another cold. Yuck. I feel like her other cold did go away completely...and now we're on to another one. I guess this is the time of year. The beauty is she is sleeping really well....as in THROUGH the night! It's about time!!! Middle of last week, I told Matt we just needed to do sleep training that weekend. I think Morgen heard that conversation because she slept through the night the next 2 nights! By the next night ---- she fussed for a few minutes & has slept through the night ever since. Yay for solid sleep. Next is getting rid of JaCee's binkie.

Here are Morgen's professional pictures from her 1 year photo shoot. They turned out really cute, I think!
