February Update

I know it has been forever since I have updated, I don't really have an excuse except that I have been busy. Morgan is doing awesome. He is pulling himself up on everything! He isn't crusing furniture yet, but hopefully soon. He is drinking whole milk from a sippy cup now, no more bottles and no more warming up the milk! He is also doing well eating table food. He loves breads, pastas and will eat eggs, cheese, meatballs, deli meat, fruit and will try just about anything we put in front of him. He is getting to be such a big boy. He loves to explore and get into everything.

Happy Holidays!

Morgan is doing well. He is getting over some type of nasty virus that caused BAD diarrhea for the past 6 days or so. He is pretty much over that but now has a runny nose and cough. It never ends! I rather deal with a runny nose over diarrhea any day! Through all of this though he has been a happy baby. Morgan has also started to crawl up on his hands and knees, not just army crawl. He will do it for a bit and then drop down to army crawl. He also will go from his belly to sitting. I don't think it will be long before he is pulling himself up. He fifth tooth is now coming in. He has 3 on top and 2 on bottom. He is getting to be such a big boy! The above are some pictures that Jessica his daycare provider took of him. She had a Christmas "photoshoot" with the kids :)

1st Birthday Pictures

Morgan's "2nd" Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. This is technically Morgan's second Thanksgiving since he was born on Thanksgiving last year at 1:19pm, so he was here in time for a Thanksigiving dinner! I am so thankful that Morgan is healthy and happy and am looking forward to celebrating this holiday season with him and the rest of our family! I am also thankful we don't have to spend the holiday season in the NICU but are thinking of those that do this holiday season. Since Morgan's birthday is tomorrow (it's hard to believe it has been one year) we are having some cake, ice cream and presents at my brother-in-law and sister-in-law's house today to celebrate his 1st birthday in addition to Thanksgiving!! I know Morgan is going to destroy his piece of cake, I'll take a bunch of pictures.

Morgan Up on Hands and Knees

Here are two videos of Morgan. Morgan has started getting up on his hands and knees recently.

Pictures

Hi everyone. I just wanted to post a couple of pictures. Morgan is doing awesome. We go to the doctor this morning for a follow up on his ear infection and to get his Synagis shot to lessen the effects if he contracts RSV. He has to get this shot every month from November to March. Morgan is getting a lot better at sitting up on his own for a longer period of time. I can also tell he is trying to figure out how to crawl. He will shake his legs and bring his knee up sometimes to try to move forward, he will figure it out eventually. I posted one picture from Halloween, that is the only one I got of him in his costume. He hadn't slept much that day and was exhausted by the time 6:30 came around and he wasn't happy that I had put him in his costume.

Getting Bigger and Stronger

Hi everyone. Morgan is doing awesome. His two bottom teeth are really coming in now. He has had some congestion recently but no fever so I'm really hoping we can avoid any flu activity this winter season. I am going to try to keep him away from really populated places. Morgan is also getting better at sitting and standing. This evening he stood against the couch for quite a while. He isn't crawling yet but will push himself backwards on his belly on the wood floor. So he is getting there. He is eating oatmeal cereal mixed with baby food three times a day while weaning down his formula intake.
