Busy, Busy, Busy

Well we made it! It has been a busy few months, but we survived :) We are officially moved into our new house (almost completely unpacked) and Ryan is getting settled into the new squadron. South Carolina is treating us well! Our neighborhood is awesome and our neighbors are even better! I will post pictures of the house later; when I have more time...I have 1 asleep in his crib, 1 asleep in my lap as I type, and 1 coloring on the floor next to me.

Until later...
Ryan, Lisa, Morgan, Camryn, & RJ

...and I am SuperGirl...


Today the kids and I spent a few hours at the park after Morgan was done with school. Usually we head to the base park, but today we stayed at the school. There was an older boy (and by older, I mean he was 6 or 7) teasing Morgan, Camryn, and Caroline (M's BFF). The boy was taunting the girls...teasing them that he was up on top of the playground and waaaayyyyy higher than they were. I was watching them interact, trying to see how they would handle it. Camryn walked away, Caroline ran to her mom, and Morgan...well Morgan didn't take it. I watched as she shook her finger at him and told him "You aren't supposed to be up there. It is against the rules. I don't care that you're up there...I can jump really high...and I. Am. Supergirl." She was so matter-of-fact...with a little "don't mess with me" attitude...hip cocked and all.

I wanted to laugh at her response, but instead, I was amazed with her. My little girl can handle her own...because She is Supergirl.



***the last 20 minutes at the park consisted of Morgan giving the little boy an "I dare you to come near me" stare anytime he came within 2 feet of her, Camryn, or Caroline. ***

I'm sorry...


I apologize to my husband. He is the manliest man I have ever met. He is not and never should have been a male cheerleader. He grunts and grows chest hair with the best of them.


(Is this better Ryan?)

My husband should have been a cheerleader.

For years in high school, I desperately tried to get Ryan to become a male cheerleader...he refused, over and over and over again. But tonight as I watched him toss our children into the air, I couldn't help but think of how great he would have been :)


Camryn's turn!
And now for Morgan!

Girlies

Just a quick update on the girlies:




Morgan is absolutely loving school. She loves all of her new friends and she comes home with lots of stories and information that she overloads us with :) Just ask Aunt Jenny~ Jenny and her friends learned all about Noah!

Morgan has also figured out how to dive!


Camryn is enjoying having some quality alone time with me and RJ while Morgan is at school. She talks a whole lot more when big sis isn't around...and she is able to love on little brother all by herself! She is definitely loving being a big sister.
