Few More Firsts!

We finished out the month of August strong and started September even stronger!

First Time in a long time, to get pics of these 3 together!

I just love my little nephew Justus. He wants to know if Wyatt and Madelyn can go to his Honey Bee's house to play Hungry Hungry Hippo with him!

Wyatt started Gymnastics for the first time! He begged and begged me. I said now Wyatt you might be the only boy....he says I don't care, I can do that stuff! And, he can! He loves it. I have been told this is not something that will become serious, just for fun so he can learn some strength skills! Wyatt volunteers to go first for every activity, he does enjoy it!

Mom's just glad, they can both go on the same night, at the same time!
Here's my girl!

First Time for Wyatt to receive Student of the Month at Doyle Elementary. I think it was for September. It came out on the September newsletter! Mrs. Betsy is his teacher and she selected him. We are super excited about this and very proud of Wyatt. He really does try hard to listen and obey all of the rules! Way to go Wyatt! :) That's my Little Wyatt on the far right down in front!

Little bit of Kindergarten talk! Wyatt says, I don't have time to stand in that long lunch line and eat my food! He's all about eating his food! He was super excited this moring. He had cantaloupe, peanut butter and jelly, 1 small hershey bar and some sweet tea in his lunch bag!

He got a coupon to the Mexican restaurant with his certificate and he said he has to go eat their with his NaNa Lucia b/c she's Mexican!
Wyatt told his NaNa Cya, ....you know the older I get, the more Mexican I will get! Son, I think this is as Mexican as you will get in this little picture right here!

First time to visit the park off of Daryple, and the first time for us to meet the Gauthier's new dog, Princess Bella! We all just love Bella! She's a cutie! The park is super nice. It is right next to a dog park that Raising Canes sponsors....how clever of them!

Happy Early Birthday to Madelyn!

I was so impressed with little Bella that I wanted to find out where she came from. Sheena called the girl where she got Bella from to find out where she came from and lo and behold....her sister had a dog from the same litter that she was looking to get rid of! College girl that just didn't have time for the dog! So, Madelyn's birthday present came early! We had been talking about names b/c she talks about Mickey all the time. You saw Mickey during the last post! She had decided she liked the names, Casey, Barbie or Daisy....and just so everyone knows....it's Daisy like Daisy Duck, not like the flower! Introducing Miss Daisy Duke Morgan! That's what we call her Daisy Dukes!
Daisy when she first arrived

and Daisy after!

I told Madelyn that a great big box had come in the mail for her and this what it looked like. She can't read, but she said I think this is from the Puppy Farm! Thanks to Miss Morgyn for drawing those puppies!

Few pics, I couldn't get many and still enjoy the moment. It was one of those moments a mom will never forget! She was sooooo excited!

Madelyn's First Puppy!

The first week of September had one more first!

The First Morgan Mini Van! Yes, I love my kids enough to drive a mini van! This is the coolest mini van ever! 2 TV's, 6 moonroof's, leather bucket seats, a back up camera, 1 million buttons and this morning I pressed a new button and a woman started to talk back, NO JOKE!

Thanks to Sheena and Derek for making this happen! Sheena worked her magic and jewed them down!

The kids absolutely love it! Wyatt decided not to take the trip to Lake Charles to get it and boy was he sorry, he called Derek like 6 times on the way home to see how much longer!

Wyatt, says, finally a car I can kick back and relax in!

They just love it and I love that they love it! I'm on the look out for a bumper sticker that says I love my kids so much that I'm driving this mini van! NO, I love it to!

kiddos in the back with the headphones! They like to sit in the back...well mostly Madelyn does! And I like that they are separated! And we have plenty of leg room! OR BOOK SACK ROOM! THEY DON'T HAVE LONG LEGS THAT GET IN THE WAY YET!

We loaded the van down Labor Day and took 6 kids to the zoo! You read it right 6 kids! They were all good and had a real good time!

My little JMan says. I see a map....he had to look at it! He wanted to know where the restrooms were on the map! He's hilarious! Then, he wanted to stop at every map after that! I said Justus I've been to this zoo 100 times, I can get you to every bathroom here!

Turning a Page!

My New Best Friend! Madelyn has a new best friend, and his name is Mickey....at first she called him Minnie b/c she likes girl dogs better, but she's gotten use to Mickey, or she just calls him Mick Mick! This is the neighbor's dog! Thanks to Tammy and Keith for sharing their dog with us!

09 trip to Blue Bayou with the Gauthiers! Always a blast!
They love to drive the little cars....b/c they can actually drive themselves! While standing in line, we asked if Morgyn and Wyatt wanted to ride together or 2 separate and Morgyn's response was....I'm gonna ride with Wyatt and he's going to drive so we can romance!

They enjoy the tea cups too! And yes, that's a big L for "Loser" that Morgyn is demonstrating! How did I manage to capture that!

A Dream Come True! It was Wyatt's fear that he would be the only kindergartener that still road their bike with training wheels, so he finally got up the nerve to say Dad, lets go do it! Took 1 day...he learned on his sister's princess bike, now they fight over the little princess bike.

And, yes, that is Madelyn in the background on the 4 wheeler dressed up with make up and the ultimate hairdo!

We turned the page on Thursday, August 13, 2009 as Wyatt started his first day of Kindergarten.
He wasn't nervous or scared. He was pumped and excited!

We went for meet and greet the day before, so he met his teacher and she showed him where he would be sitting and where to put his book sack. They let the mom's go in the first day and he knew exactly what to do! Walked in there like a pro!

We learned during meet and greet that Mrs. Carley would be selling popsicles during recess and as we were walking back to the car, Wyatt says....Mom you should think of something to sell like Mrs. Carley, then you could work here at my school with me! I said Mrs. Carley works here as a teacher....she just sells popsicles b/c it's so hot! So Cute!

As he was getting dressed that morning, he says, I need extra money b/c I need to get 2 milks and I'm gonna get white milk on my first day, but sometimes I might get chocolate milk! And, as we're putting his belt on he says....Mom, I might have to take this belt off and whip somebody with it!

Of course Mom had to ask him 99 questions when he got home! This is what I got out of him!

The Playground was awesome! They even have swings! They didn't have swings at the daycare playground! The nap time is really short... And, they gave us a snack with icing on it and that's not a real healthy snack!

Day 2 Talk! Mom, we have 2 reeses time (a.k.a recess time) one outside and one inside. There's a hot chica in my class that gets her clothespin moved..... And, Mady chases me on the playground!
Why am I hearing stories about girls! ....where are the boys!

Madelyn has been in the studio with Nana Again! Madelyn and Wyatt planted those pumpkins in Nana's backyard about 6 months ago....We never thought we'd get a real pumpkin...you should have seen how we just flung the pumpkin seeds! But, we got real pumpkins....they were a nice size too! What better way to portrait your first pumpkin....with your only grandaughter! of course Madelyn chose to wear that! But it kind of has a Cinderella feel!

Derek took us out on the boat! Mom snapped a few pics!

Of course, Mom caught the biggest fish, but I didn't get a pic....figures!

Madelyn kept hugging me and saying thank you momma you did so good. She was just plain proud, but she didn't know the word!

The cutest little driver ever.

And, the best thing of all..

Wyatt says, mom did you know I can bake my own hook......that's bait for those of you who can't weed through the 5 year old talk! I said No, Wyatt I didn't. Poor little fella...he was doing that all day! I was so impressed and Derek was just glad he didn't have to "bake" my hook. Momma don't mess with the worms!

Finally a Bumble Bee!

Madelyn finally made it to Pre-K.... a.k.a..... the Bumblebees at Children's Cottage. We were given some of the girl bumblebee uniforms last year and she thought for sure if she walked into school one day with that uniform on last year, they would let her in that class.....didn't work! They did let her take a nap in there that day....NOT what she was looking for!

She kept saying she was a little bit nervous b/c Wyatt wasn't going to be there. I was a little concerned but she did just fine!

She walked right in and said ......whispering....Mrs. Lori....guess what......

I have a bra! Yes, she's been begging for a bra! Finally got one for pre-k!

Day 2: and Madelyn says, Mom, you can just drop me off at the door. I'm in Pre-K, so you don't have to come in!

Shape of a Heart!

Madelyn's first day home from Pre-K and she's on the sofa last night with her new Journal from her Nanna and she says to Wyatt. I'm gonna draw a shape and you have to guess what it is...of course she wouldn't show him..... So, he starts guessing.... a sqaure, a rectangle, a triangle, a circle, then I chime in and say an Octagon. like a stop sign, a trapezoid! I said Madelyn what other shape is there that you could possibly know...... She says..... A HEART! duh mom!

My little ballerina! She tells me she wishes her name was Chloe! I think she gets that from watching the Young and The Restless with me! I think she might be watching and liking Chloe's clothing syle as well! She says mom can you get me a dress with no straps!
