Crappy Day

It has been one of those days....

.

Cast: Ellianna... Young toddler aspiring nudist with some potty issues

Karist ..... Younger toddler with an abundance of curiosity

Mom... Stressed, Tired, seems to always be in lose/ lose situations

.

Scene: hallway with fresh poop on the floor. Ellianna has stepped in it and is making the mess bigger.

.

Dilemma: What to clean first? Poop in floor or Poop on Elli

.

Choice: Elli because she is wiping it all over her and the floor. Move Elli to the bathroom and put her in the tub.(Devonae is watching her) Grab toilet paper and go to pick up poop mess in the hall.

.

Disaster: Karist is finger painting. Don't read this next part. Karist true to form has tasted the stuff on the floor. I told you not to read it.

.

Grossed out mommy puts the younger toddler in the tub too. Cleans up the even bigger mess.

.

Everything is clean everyone seems to have survived.

.

5 minutes later mommy picks up her freshly cleaned Karist only to find her decorated with chocolate brownie... At least she smells yummy.

The longest parade ever

Rome has this celebration called Honor America Days which has a parade.
Our church had a float in the parade and the kids were excited about going.

We went to the parade last year and knew it was long so Jesse set us up at what he thought was the mid point.

The kids had a great time but around 12:30 candy wasn't enough to keep away the hunger monster.

We never did see our church.. they did not start marching until 12:50... The parade starts at 10:00.
We thought this was one of the best floats... it was the hospitals "there is no place like Rome" float.

After several hours of the longest parade ever the Morgan family was defiantly thinking that there was no place like home... so that was where we went.

Signs of Life

Ok, I know it seem that I fell off the face of the earth but I am alive and well.

The above pic is from our vomit vacation. Elli passed out at the mini golf place that we went to during a lull in the barfing.

This so far is classed as my worst vacation ever....

The company was great ... the accommodations were great... lots of fun activities...lot of yummy food...

Too bad sick sick kids are enough to ruin all that.

A word to the wise... If you rent a cabin make it one with a shower...if you rent a cabin make it one with HOT water.

Home again Home again....

Doing a jig.
There is no place like home.
To Market to market to buy for fat piggys.

It is so nice to be home from the grandparent tour.
My house is a mess now but we have food in the fridge.

Wouldn't you know it I woke up this morning with what appears to be the flu.
Welcome home to me :(

Morgan's from head to toe

Those fat rolls can be none other than Karist. Isn't she adorable?

The toes of Devonae. This pic shows how tall she is getting.

Come on! What are you thinking... this is NOT a butt. This is a self portrait of Ellie. Well her thighs anyway. Guess it is just too hard to take a pic of your own butt, at least for a 2 year old. Please no one email me Butt pics to prove me wrong.

This is not me. My legs are not quite that hairy yet. Jesse in his relaxation pose.

Here is me and my beautiful elbow.


Now this is a butt. Danny's that is.

The end.

Playtime

For the kids that is... Daddy has been working.
The rock wall has finished this afternoon and the slide is gonna be put up over the weekend.


Elli is happy to have a swing set.
She is hanging on for dear life in this pic but since she did not die on the first attempt at swinging she has loosened up and is having the time of her life.

Devonae is happy.

Danny is happy.

As I type this they are outside playing pirates with their new toy.

They love, love, love it.

Karist has had to make do with other toys but she found a fort in the house that is well stocked with food. Well not as stocked as it was... guess she needed more space.

Daddy is happy it is almost done.

Mommy is happy that everyone is happy. :)

Now is they all would go to bed early...

Lil Mess Maker

My poor kids hate cleaning.

They think it is their lot in life to clean all day.

They don't seem to have any problem making messes however.

Too bad some one was watching.....

"Mom I just got here and there was this mess all over..."

Caught in the act....

"OK fine Mom I made the mess. I am so talented. Now how about putting some cookies on all these plates I got out."

I am out numbered but never bored.

Feeling bored? Come on over and clean a bit.

You can start here....

Please note that the picture of the mess for you to clean was not taken by me.

I guess the kids are so proud of their ability to trash a room in 3 minutes flat that they take pictures of it.
