Happy Holidays

A star is born

Our faithful readers (all 3 of you) may have noticed by now that Morgan is quite photogenic. Of course that's not all that hard to believe considering how freakishly cute she is. Well luckily it's not just us who have noticed. Yes, that's right, Morgan has made the cover of a regionally renowned publication which reaches out to about 50 people not counting reprints. I'm speaking of course of my company newsletter which recently requested holiday photos featuring employee kids. Naturally Morgan's photo was submitted and naturally, out of dozens of entries, she was just too irresistible to keep off of the cover. In fact, not only did Morgan make the cover, she was also featured in an inside spread. So there, Baby Gap.

The Big Man

Morgan is just sailing through her first holiday season. She mastered Thanksgiving like a pro and survived her first turkey (naturally she preferred mommy's turkey and mashed potatoes to Grandma's and Curt's). And now we are breezing on into Christmas. Morgan has been accompanying both mommy and daddy on secret shopping missions. And of course she's been learning all about Santa. So when we learned that Santa was making an early stop to Ellicott City to have breakfast naturally she wanted to go. Colby warned her ahead of time as he has vivid memories still of seeing Santa when he was a puppy (he was a little scared so mommy had to sit with him during his picture). But of course Morgan is a lot braver than Colby so we were sure she would be just fine. She enjoyed eating pancakes with Curt, Kerry, and Brooks. She checked out the holiday trains. And then it was time for the big moment. Morgan walked into Santa's shop, sat down on his lap, and this was her reaction...


I think somebody is getting lots of presents this year.
