The Morgan's Movements {Late May 2015}

We have enjoyed the last bit of May and we are looking forward to what June holds! 

Mason and I love to walk around Target. There's lots to see and it's just a good indoor activity when we need to kill some time. On this particular day, Mason found a LARGE ball and he carried it around while we browsed. 

We spent some fun time outside, too! Mason was ready to go!

My little lefty at the library. 

Snuggles with my sweet boy are ALWAYS a highlight!


We had a family date to Wade's for dinner. We were very happy about that!

Mason got his first free cookie from Publix.

And I found these!!

We watched a little soccer after swimming one day. And I had to work hard to keep Mason on this side of the fence. :)

We FaceTimed with PawPaw.

We made pillow forts.



More outside time. I love this boy so much. I took this picture right after he sat down and patted the seat next to him for me to come sit by him. 



Snazzy boy dressed for church


Touching a fire truck at church.


What? It isn't normal to just wear shoes and a diaper??

WATERMELON!!! 




A little light reading. I love how much this sweet boy loves to read.

Comfy, Mason? 


Reading with Daddy...his favorite!

And more reading. :)

Mason had a doctor's appointment and afterwards, we went to Golden Corral for a family lunch. Mason had his first chicken leg! 




Our little garden is doing well. The first thing we harvested was sugar snaps! We had so many and we enjoyed them so much! 

See? Loves to read. ;)

Look closely...that's a sweet sleeping boy! 

Fun at the library with Daddy while Mom worked. 


DONUT DATE!!! THE BEST!! 




This is what I get when I say to Mason "Say Cheese"


Since Mason has been fighting some allergies/whatever, we have spent a little more time than normal inside. We filled up the sink with water and let Mason play and he loved it!!! 

And I had to share this. We made fajitas with ground pork, caramelized onions, roasted corn and black beans. SOOOO GOOD!! 

It was Mason's first fajita!


Family Snuggles were how we ended this month and it was just the best!!

Kika The Upside-Down Girl by Jessica Tudos {A Book Review}


I love love love this book, Kika the Upside-Down Girl written by Jessica Tudos, a former Olympic gymnast. 

Kika is a girl who has always done things differently from those around her. She does them upside down and that gets her into trouble. Kika is always trying to find others to join her on her journeys and adventures. One day, she finds a place where she fits in perfectly. 

I love this story because it reminds us that we don't all have to be the same. Differences are good. Differences make the world go around. 

My 19 month old son loves this book, too, and I know he will enjoy it more as he grows older and understands the story more and more.  

Thanks, Jessica!

The Book of Joan by Melissa Rivers {A Book Review}


I must admit I was a little leery of The Book Of Joan: Tales of Mirth, Mischief, and Manipulations by Melissa Rivers but I decided to check it out anyway. I must say, I was surprised that I really enjoyed this book. 

The book is a little crude but that is to be expected because Joan Rivers was crude at times and her daughter is as well. All crudeness aside, this book really shared some of the funny stories about Joan Rivers' life. 

The book was written from Melissa's perspective about her mother and she was open and honest in the book. Despite her sharing some of the hard times along with the funny times, her writing and sharing truly showed how much she loved and admired her mother. 

The stories were witty and well-written and as I read, I could just picture Joan and Melissa Rivers in these situations. I laughed a lot and I cannot wait to pass this book along to my mom to read, too. 


I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
