Hair Snack

Another photo update:

Another rare photo of Melissa, Morgan somehow sneaked this one.

Have you ever seen the Taylor Swift "Teardrops on my guitar" video? For Morgan's birthday she got that CD and on it was the video. One day, while Melissa was changing Mikayla's diaper, Morgan put on some chap stick and a dress, laid on her bed, and then started to sing the song, imitating Taylor Swift. If you know Melissa and I, you should be as puzzled as we are with how "girly" this little one behaves.

And to prove how girly she is, check out this pose she gave us today while at the mall.

And while at the mall we walked through the men's suits section. After wandering around for a few minutes Morgan saw a gray sport coat and said, while rubbing the fabric between her fingertips, "This looks like something a missionary would wear, or someone who has a dog." I was dying. But do you think that comment was random? Well, right after that she walked up to these pair of slacks, again felt the fabric between her fingertips, and said "This is nice! Do you think it can get wet?"

Morgan loves reading, or pretending to read, books to Mikayla, and Mikayla loves hearing them, especially when her big sister is the reader. This photo is on one occasion when Morgan asked Melissa if Mikayla could play with her in the toy room. Melissa came back a minute later to find Mikayla listening quietly to her sister and couldn't pass up the photo opportunity.

Mikayla is starting to sleep like her mother and big sister--all over the place. She will start on her back, then roll to her stomach, scream because she can't get back over or because she is tangled in her blankets, but usually end up on her side. Her hobby, however, is picking at the bumpers in her crib. Here you can see where she has picked away most of a couple stars.

Here is a video of another one of Mikayla's favorite hobbies. She loves to sit up and slobber all over her toy flower. They are supposed to play tunes when you touch the pedals, but here you can see what happens with too much drool. Notice how Mikayla almost looks embarrassed by breaking the toy.

Just another quick story. I just love to tease and wrestle Morgan, but it is now starting to backfire on me. Tonight I had Mikayla sitting on my chest while I was laying on the ground talking to her. Morgan came up to us and starting talking too, but when she noticed that she was directly above me with her hair hanging down, she could not pass up the opportunity to quickly lower her head to put her hair in my mouth. She thought it was so funny said said "Do you want a snack?" and tried it again. After a minute of trying to stop her without dropping Mikayla, Morgan backed off and said "Is that what you want for Father's Day? A hair snack?"
