The best days..

A few more pictures!! Claire is a great baby, she sleeps 90% of the time and is very sweet when she is awake! We love having 2 kids and have been spending the week just trying to appreciate every minute of it. I am so happy i got this hat for Claire, as you can see I never get sick of taking her picture in it..

She has so much hair!




Finn has been very sweet..more each day..he shows her everything he has and asks to give her hugs.

Hello and love to Grandmas, Aunts, Uncles and cousins that have not gotten to meet her in person yet..we can't wait to see you soon.

She's Here!

Claire Elizabeth Morgan!!!! Born December 15th at 9:50pm, 6 lbs, 6 oz, 18 inches long..everyones doing GREAT!

40 weeks, not cool.

Keep you posted...for now, nothing!

I am going to have two of these.

35 weeks

Just a quick picture for those who have asked. These are horrible because the way our computer is set up now, I can't take a picture of my whole self without bending down. I included a picture of me and Finnster too, he was crying so I picked him up and let him be in it:) We are ready to have this girl. Im just getting over food poisoning, or a stomach virus or something..and although I thought I got away with another easy pregnancy, I have to say for this one the end has not been so fun. Cant' wait for you all to meet her...

Fall Finn

We had our carpets cleaned the other day to clean of all the juice and milk and whatever stains from the past year, so we had to stay outside. I decided to take some pictures of Finn since the leaves are starting to change..

Baby Shower!

I had the awesomest baby shower for our girl last weekend and I had to post about it..because my sisters did such a good job and I loved it and it was perfect. It was very small because even though I did want to have a shower I also already had my moment and there is a lot of other pregnant friends that need to have theirs! But I got a video camera from my parents, a gift card for a double stroller, and tons of super cute girl clothes! I even got some adorable handmade leggings which I loved! I wish I could post pictures of everything I got. So THANKYOU EVERYONE! I also wish I had a picture of my awesome sisters to put on here but they were too busy working and I never got one..here is a sample of Kathryns decorating..


There were 5 pregnant girls there! here is a picture of us..

Finn even had fun because he had 2 other boys his age to play with, he got to eat a lot of cookies, and he even got a present.
We had a vote for "Hazel" or "Isla" for the baby's name. I thought it would just be fun and I wouldn't care...

But then when I got the results I have to admit I was slightly affected and her name probably will be Isla. But mostly because Joe loves that name and has from the beginning and I like them both the same!


It was a super fun day and an awesome memory and now I am even more excited for her to be here!

Catching Up and Vacations..

Hello family and friends, sorry it's been so long since I've posted. We had such an awesome time on the 2 trips we took this summer.. thought I'd finally share some pictures! First we went to Cayuga Lake with my family, the weather was so nice everyday and it was just the perfect little place! It was right on the water, so we had a view of the lake from inside and outside..the deck was huge and it had a swimming dock about a hundred feet from the dock which we used a lot.




It was really all Finn needed at this age..he loved the little "beach" by our house..it started his obsession with "woocks"..he would collect rocks with Grandpa..or Daddy or Mommy or whoever he could get..then throw them off the deck into the water. I think he could have done that for days. Well he did actually...We did wine tasting (not me, Finn and I played with the cat), blew bubbles, Finn cooked with Grandpa and played with Grandma and walked up and down the stairs over and over with multiple family members, the boys did flips over eachother into the water..(if you don't know my brother him and joe are very weird when they are together and this is a joke)..overall just got to spend time with my family and just relax! I can't believe how much being around everyone taught him so many new things! I felt like when we got home he was a new baby..he could honk noses and say so many words, knock on doors, so many things I can't count but I feel like it was the beginning of him really starting to talk and learn things.













And then there was Hatteras...which started out perfect..


With good friends, presents for Finn, and the beach everyday playing in the waves..






And then hurricane Earl. And we had to evacuate.

It was very dissappointing because we were having such a nice time..but at least we had our 3 really nice days! Today we are back home and ready for fall...
The most exciting things in our lives right now are learning how to use a spoon, eating apples and....


they are chopping corn in the field across the road which has made it possible for me to work on this post..Finn has not stepped away from the window and has said "Look!" and "TRUCK!" more times than i can count! I'd really like to update on my beautiful little baby shower this weekend..hopefully soon!
