It's a rainforest out there

With two dogs, and at one point a cat, it can certainly seem at times like our house is turning into a zoo. Now that Morgan has joined us I can officially announce our house is quickly becoming more like a rainforest instead. Morgan seems to have just about every Fisher Price Rainforest product on the market. Packed in our house is the swing, pack-and-play, various rattles, and now a jumperoo. And naturally they all make some sort of noise. For the past week now, about the same time we acquired said jumperoo, the house has been filled with sounds of elephants, wild birds, and other assorted rainforest animals. Coincedently, Morgan has decided that now is also the perfect time for her to really start making herself heard. So she has taken to making her own rainforest sounds which is quite entertaining. We're not always quite sure if she is fussy or she just likes hearing the sound of her voice but it definitely makes us laugh. Although Pat has mentioned an increase in headaches lately... not sure if that's Morgan or the elephants.

Wiggle worm

Well we must be doing something right because we've made it to 4 months. Yes, Morgan is officially 4 months old and to celebrate we went to the doctors and made her get more shots (which she handled better than daddy). Here's some stats for everyone keeping track: 

Height: 25 3/4"
Weight: 14lbs 3ozs
Head circ: 42 cm

Morgan was 7lbs 14oz when she was born and 21" long so she's just about doubled in weight and has grown 4 inches. And as for her big head - well it's holding her big brain of course.

To make things more interesting around the house Morgan has officially started rolling over. She's very good going from her tummy to her back as she flops right on over. She is also grabbing toys, blankets, hair, noses, puppy tails, etc. So that's fun for everyone. Colby and Chance still seem to like her though now they have to be on their guard for falling rattles.

Somehow in between wiggles and smiles we're also finding time to do more stuff around the house. We now have new flooring on our 1st floor and we're just about done painting and installing new molding. Of course this just means we'll have more space for toys.

New pictures are now in the gallery and new video clips are coming soon.
