1.) Morgan's 1st haircut. This is Marty, our family hairdresser. She has cut my hair since I was 5 years old.
2.) 1st trip to the Guadalupe River in Kerrville, TX. My sister and I pretty much learned to swim in this river near my grandparents' house. It was so neat to have Morgan share a piece of my childhood like that, although, the water was too cold to swim that day!
3.) Hunting ladybugs at her friend Marlee's birthday party. Morgan enjoyed squishing them between her fingers after catching them.
4.) Enjoying ice cream and cupcakes at the party with Kirklyn.
5.) After the party, we dropped Greg off at the church for a mission trip to Houston. We then headed up to Aunt Katie's house in Frisco where she was having a Kojie roommate reunion! They were so nice to invite us! Morgan made a new friend, Ashlyn (17 months), who belongs to Katie's roommate, Andrea (Hise) Whiteside. The girls are enjoying beverages by the pool.
6.) We then headed over to Jamie (Sommers) Schlegal's house in Plano for "Pancake Night".
7.) Morgan and Ashlyn playing with Jamie and Steven's dog "Biscuit"
8.) Morgan can hardly stand all the excitement!
9.) We came home from Frisco and attended our Bible Class swim party at the Howard Moore Splash Pool in Arlington. Here, Morgan is posing with her new friend Kasen Underwood, who is Kevin and Lacy (Litton) Underwood's 3rd child!
10.) Next, we headed down to Houston to spend time with Greg while on the Mission Trip to Impact. We stayed with Greg's dad and did lots of fun things. Here, is Morgan with her new pal Andre at the Astros game. He is one of the interns with the Impact Church.
11. In Grandad's backyard with Aunt Leigh Ann, who is due around Thanksgiving with Baby #1! His name will be Brandon Scott Kasberg. Morgan is excited to finally have a cousin! See how green it is in Houston? That's because it actually rains there!
12. Back at home with her BFF Kirklyn. They were twinsies that day! This was 2 days after Morgan turned 18 months old!
13.) Greg and I last weekend in Chicago, where we attended a friend's wedding. Morgan stayed at home with Grammy, Grandpa, Mike and Katie! It was our first time to leave her for more than one night, but she did great and we had a fun, relaxing weekend!

I am liking the new look to the blog!
That Morgan has one full dayplanner! I am glad to see that we have passed on our wisdom to younger generations through such enriching experiences like roomie reunions and pancake night (it was our ministry you know)
Wow, you guys have been busy! You should have called up my sister Kellee in Chicago; she and Anthony would have loved showing you around. Looks like you've been having fun! I like the name of Morgan's cousin-to-be. Not too much longer!! Hope you're doing well.
So glad you updated. I am wondering how you uploaded so many pictures with Blogger!? I never get more than 4-5. Looks like you guys are having a very busy summer. BTW, where did Kirklyn get that blonde hair??
Allison,
So good for you to return to blogging. I have been checking your site faithfully for the last month only to be dissappointed (until today). These blogs make Heather and I miss our ACU friends back in Texas. Anyways, I am glad to hear that Leigh Ann and Brad are expecting. Tell them hi for me (or tell them to get a blog).

Hey Paige, I'm not sure where Morgan got that blond hair- I assumed you meant her, not Kirklyn:) Greg's hair was light as a child, but not white like hers! I think it will darken eventually - at least I hope so! I want her to look at least a little like me!
As for the multiple pictures, I just uploaded 3 or 4 at a time until I was done. It took awhile, but I just left the computer running and checked on it periodically!
Alison,
Having two kids does make you tired, especially the first 4-6 weeks. It is a totally different experience, but it is getting much better and much easier (easy for me to say as Heather has both the kids in Texas right now). Regardless, I can't imagine life any other way.

P.S. What is correct blogging etiquette - if you ask a question in my comments should I respond on your blog or my own? I am pretty sure there will be a book out soon on blogging etiquette and I hope this subject is covered.
Crazy enough I know Kirklyn's parents...so when I finally saw a picture of her, my first thought was 'Where did she get the blonde hair?' Sorry for the confusion. I will have to try your photo magic on blogger tomorrow. Thanks, and again, sorry for the confusion.
Paige-
I'm such a dork! I completely forgot that you knew Dewitt and Amanda! They are just as baffled by Kirklyn's hair as we are by Morgans! They are all doing well. Dewitt is almost certified to be a superintendent. He needs to be a principal first, but he's well on his way. Kirklyn will turn 2 in September!
Taylor-
I don't know the exact etiquette of all this! Most people comment on their own blogs when someone leaves a question on there. Sometimes I go ahead and comment on the other persons, though, just in case they don't look at mine again. It's still weird to me that anyone would want to look at my blog in the first place, you know?
