Morgan’s First Day of School

Our first “baby” started Kindergarten this year. It was bittersweet for us. While we’ve enjoyed watching her grow and learn, it is hard to see her start school because we know she’s growing up. Traditionally in Minnesota school starts the day after Labor Day. Tuesday, September 8th came and she was [...]

Morgan Burn

On Saturday we had our friend Ryan over to visit. Well in the afternoon the living room was quite messy so I wanted Morgan to pick up her horses. She was sitting at the table playing and refused to do it. Ryan said to Morgan, “If you don’t pick up then we will pick them [...]

Again?

So the other day I was on the couch feeding Miina, when Morgan ran to the back door, look out and said “ugh, again?!?!?”. I didnt know what she was complaining about. She runs over to me and says “Daddy, why does the sun go down on that side” LOL…I tried to contain my laughter. [...]

Memorial Day Weekend

Josh and I have been looking forward to this weekend for a while.  We’ve been saving vacation days, so the extra day off on Monday was a great bonus for us!
We just took it easy Friday and didn’t do much.  We did the usual things like play outside a bit and clean up around the [...]

Past few weekends….

Toby had his second visit to the vet in town (3rd since we’ve had him) for what I thought would be a quick booster shot. Well, it ended up being a complete exam, which was ok. He gained another 3+ lbs putting him at 11.6. He was around 6 when we got him, so he’s [...]

Morgan Update

Since we got Toby, he’s pretty much been taking up the majority of our free time – including Morgan’s.  She’s quickly learning to pick up her toys!  If that’s all it would have taken I would have gotten Toby a year ago.  God forbid we actually enforce some discipline with Morgan – it’s just easier [...]

Skating Update

Our last day of skating was last Saturday and Morgan did really well.  She was in a great mood when we got up Saturday morning.  She didn’t really want to go skating, but we told her it was the last class and she was done after this.  When we were getting her dressed she said [...]

Grandma and Grandpa / Skating / Basement

Another weekend of working and skating for us.  Morgan had skating on Sat., and this time it did not go so well.  She was upset because she fell a few times, hard.  She was really good at doing what she was asked by the teacher, but was getting upset very easy.  She might have been [...]

Yearly Flu hits our house

Morgan was complaining that her stomach hurt Monday night when we put her to bed.  Thinking it was another stall tactic which she’s employed in the past, we made her lay down anyway and told her to go to sleep.  Also thinking if she really didn’t feel well, sleep would help.  Just before midnight she [...]

Superbowl Weekend

Friday we met up Ryan, Nicole and Katherine for dinner in Roseville.  Of course – Don Pablos.  Almost every time we go out with them, that is where we eat..hehe.  We sat upstairs, right next to a railing that overlooked the entire restaurant below.  The girls LOVED that.  They had so much fun watching everyone.  [...]
