BubbleShare: Share photos - Play some Online Games.

I had Morgan's 1 year pictures done at her Great Grandma Beutler's house, needless to say, she wasn't in the best of moods! She didn't want anything to do with the photographer, and he tried SO hard, she didn't want me to put her down, and she refused to smile!! So...these are the pics we got, and I am happy that at least some of them turned out good! If you receive this blog update in an email, you'll have to click on the Morgan Laine link at the top of the page and actually visit her website to see them. There are several pics. so I put them into a bubbleshare :-)

Morgan and I met up with Calvin and his mom Becky for a play date last week! We went to play in the fountains in Jordan Valley Park. There were so many kids there playing and having a great time. It was a little overwhelming for Morgan, getting splashed in the face isn't her favorite, but walking in the shallow wading pools was fun. Calvin and her enjoyed some snacks on a blanket together in the park, and exchanged snacks, Morgan found out she likes raisins.

Later that day Ben found a turtle on the road so he stopped and picked it up for Morgan. She liked him so much she wanted to touch his head, but the turtle wouldn't let her.

Rutledge Farm

Lookin' at the chickens!

Hi Chickens!

3825 W. Farm Road 146 Springfield, MO 65802 ( 417) 837-5949

We went to Rutlegde Farm on Monday of this week! Morgan loved seeing all the animals, and there were a bunch of kids there too! They've got all kinds of fun stuff, a simulated cow you can milk, although we passed on that one this time, farm animals, and a play ground. Morgan's favorite part were the goats and the chickens, she even petted a goat, lol! The best part about this place is that it is free! It's part of the Springfield Parks department, and it's a wonderful place to visit.

At the Park!

Summer Time Fun!

She loooves her sandbox!

Morgan and I have been taking a mommy and me swimming class through Chesterfield Family Center. The class is fun because there are other kids that Morgan gets to see, but she really isn't a big fan of the water! She clings to me for dear life, but when it's time to leave she wants right back in! So I thought it would be fun to bring out some of the water toys that Morgan got for her birthday, they are much more her speed, lol.

In the Kitchen

Morgan loves to play in the fridge! She likes to pull out anything she can get her hands on. The other day I was really hungry and I wanted to eat my sandwich asap, so I just let her do it! Great mom, huh?!
