How to stamp without stamps

One of Morgan's favorite things to do is scrapbook with mom. Otherwise known as put as many stickers on one sheet of paper that you can. Recently Morgan discovered stamping, thanks to her seeing me make thank yous for the upcoming baby. I gave Morgan one stamp pad/ cat eye chalk for those who are familiar. Tonight while I was on the computer and my back to her I hear a kissing noise? thought it was a little strange but here is what I turned around to:



Notice the lip prints!!! But how can you get mad when all she was doing was making her brother a picture and giving him kisses!!!! She loves him already.

Trouble

I knew we would be in trouble the day snow fell. Well this morning came when there was enough to cover the ground. From bed I hear Josh say to Morgan "Look outside, what is on the ground?" Morgan answers "Its Christmas." As she runs to the bedroom and says "Mom, come look... it's Christmas outside" So we look out the front window discussing snow and Christmas. Why are we in trouble you may ask?? For a child with no time concept yet we needed a way to tell Morgan that the baby wouldn't be here any day soon. So we had told her that the baby would be coming after Christmas. It actually hasn't turned into too big of an issue yet, but when we were putting our coats on Morgan did ask "is the baby still in there?" I am sure there will be more conversations about this later


On a separate note, one of the reasons I started a blog was so I had a place to jot down the silly things Morgan says. So yesterday morning, she walked into my room and I asked Morgan how she slept? Morgans reply "with my eyes closed!!!" Thanks Morgan for making me laugh

She makes me laugh everyday

Morgan that is. I find her hilarious (and frustrating) at the same time. Last night for example, She fell asleep on the couch right after her bath. Josh and I decided to leave her be. So because it was right after her bath, she had nothing on. Morgan has never been a great sleeper (frustrating part), at 2:30am she wakes up, comes and says she is hungry and wants a muffin. We put some jammies on, get her a muffin and some milk and she tells me her grandma says she can sleep on the couch. So I cover her back up on the couch, turn on blues clues by her request and I go back to bed (its 2:30 for crying out loud). This morning at 6:30, expecting her to still be sleeping, a little girl opens my door tells me that it is raining and making a river in front of our house, she goes back to the living room. I get up and head her direction, (funny part), she is naked again. I ask her why she doesn't have her jammies on and she replies "cause I wanted to be naked". How do you fight with a 4 yr old?? So she had naked breakfast, and entertained me with a little naked dancing to the abc song!!!!
Gotta love her.
