Paging Dr. Crentist, the dentist

It's hard to believe but Morgan has managed to put up with us now for 6 whole months. She did a couple of things to celebrate. First, she went to the doctors to get more shots. And yes, she continues to be tall. Second, we went to the beach which was fun despite a heater malfunction. Morgan will be reaching out to the landlord to request an additional weekend at the beach in order to compensate for her pain and suffering (and my cold). Luckily it was in the 70s on Saturday so Morgan was able to soak up plenty of sun. And third, Morgan decided now was the time to start growing some teeth. At the moment she's got one little jagged (and sharp) nubbin thing right smack in the middle on the bottom. And she's got more little white bumps just waiting to sprout on up. Luckily it doesn't seem to be bothering her too much. She doesn't seem to be too embarrassed by all of her excess drooling (we've tried not to point it out too much to her). She enjoys running her tongue over it and chomping down on anything she can fit in her mouth. Right now her favorite objects are fingers (ours and hers), toes (mainly hers), some plastic keys we got for like $0.99 (best investment ever), and air (also a good purchase). She also practices her chompies during meal time. Morgan is working on carrots now and will next be moving on to peas, green beans, and pears. She's hoping she can work up to turkey by Thanksgiving.

Dear Morgan,
You look very happy at the beach with Colby giving you kisses. I especially like the picture of you and Colby sleeping together. I can definitely see two teeth in your happy smiling mouth! I think you should tell Mommy and Daddy to keep the camera at least 12 inches from your nose though - they are going crazy taking close-up pictures. I hope you will take us to the beach with you sometime - we can bury Daddy in the sand!! Love you!! Gangi
