She wore an itsy bitsy, teeny weeny diaper built in pink tankini

(Make sure you sing the title to the beat of "Yellow Polka Dot Bikini". Aren't those rhyming skills impressive?) We've signed up for a water babies class with the Whalen's (our pals and nanny share family), and Morgan is just LOVING it! We knew she'd be a natural from bath #1. And, when Ci Ci was here in December she gave Morgie regular swim lessons in the bathtub. So, she clearly has a splash up when it comes to her swim class. So far we've practiced pool side manner (aka not jumping in the water until mom and dad give the thumbs up!) and back floating. Next week is water immersion- like, face under water. Yesterday she was not so thrilled when the instructor put the flower cap on her head (as Auntie Eileen pointed out- anyone would be upset to have such an embarrassing hat on). But seriously, if anyone is cute enough to pull off such a ridiculous cap, it's Morgan.

We are so excited that she's able to take these classes, and Morgan can't wait to show off her swimming skills in June when we meet up with Mark, Steph, Sophie and Hanna in San Diego!

Morgan didn't appreciate the flower floaty hat

Weird Science

We finally put our Science Center membership to use and took Morgie on a little excursion. It was such a blast. The last time we visited she wasn't really into it- but this time, she was so entranced by the dinosaurs, butterflies and all the other "bright shiny objects". One of the most fun things about the little Miss is how everything is so exciting and new. Really puts a new perspective on life, even for us big kids.

My pumpkin at the pumkin patch

1. How cute is this outfit? (thanks Auntie Steph, Uncle Mark and cousins Hanna and Sophie!)

I had a blast. Morgan slept through most of it, but I'm just excited that she fits into her 0-3 month clothes just in time to wear this perfect fall outfit. We went with our friends Marie and Jason, and their little boy (and one of Morgan's BFF's), Matyas. I had a carameled apple for the first time in years, and it was absolutely delish.
