The Lehmann Family – Elizabeth, Matthew, and Morgan

Ross Delivers a Wicked Left Hook

We had a great visit with Ross and Fiona today that we’ve been looking forward to for over 2 years.

Last Christmas they got snowed in so we were unable to have  a proper catch-up.

They were the first people to visit Morgan in the hospital and so, six months later, they got to see just how far she’s come.

She decided that today is the day to make some serious headway: first lurch FORWARD while crawling, first mostly unassisted sit-up, and at the end of the day, a non-stop barrage of talking.

Thank you for the beautiful gifts (very much unnecessary, but very appreciated).

What a magical day!

We had a great time with family last night at grandma and grandpa Lehmann’s (photos submitted).

Morgan got completely exhausted ripping up paper so we headed home, put the baby to bed, and watched a couple of thrillers (not the most Christmasy theme, but fun nonetheless).

Morgan did NOT deliver on her Christmas promise of giving us sleep (still up every hour).  Instead, papa was given the joy of unwrapping a Level III Disaster Diaper (photo not submitted).

We had a beautiful white Christmas (frost, not snow, thankfully) complete with deer in the front yard.

Grandpa dropped off a wonderfully, hand built toy chest that we got some great photos of Morgan playing in.

Beth is busy cooking a turkey for us tonight (Morgan will get her first taste!).

Baby Crack

It’s Morgan’s first Christmas and she couldn’t be happier.

We have a baby that is JUST about to start crawling (she can pull herself forward and kick herself backwards) and she is ALMOST sitting on her own.

She’s pretty interested in the Christmas tree but I don’t think it compares to her Baby-Crack.

Morgan’s Christmas present to us: SLEEP.

Do you hear me kiddo?  We want SLEEP for Christmas.

Baby Stomp

We’ve only been hinting at it for months… so if it’s not in our stockings tomorrow morning, there is going to be some baby stomping going on.

We are off to the grandparents tonight for a get-together so will update this post tomorrow.

So we’ve recently discovered that Morgan has systematically been blowing out the big toe on ALL of her socks, jumpers, and sleepers.

ALL of them, whether new or previously enjoyed, have been worn through and her little big toe sticks out.

It’s pretty cute.

She takes after her mom in so many ways.

Today, Morgan was given a beautiful quilt made by Tracie F.

She instantly took to burying into it.  I hope Tracie knows that all of her hard work will be soon covered in baby drool.

Morgan just loves it!

Thank you =)
