The Toothfairy

Morgan has been Losing quite a few teeth lately. He lost his other top Front tooth in Oregon while playing with cousin Andrew on Nana's Trampoline, and right after he got back he lost his other bottom eye tooth (the other one has been gone for a while.) After losing his eye tooth, We were settling in for bed and he put his tooth under his pillow and the following took place

Morgan: "Mom, Can you get me a paper and pencil?"
Rachel: "What For?"
Micah: "It's bedtime, Not playtime."
Morgan: "I want to write the toothfairy a note"
Rachel: "Ok"
Micah: (Rolls eyes and sighs in annoyiance)
Rachel: "What are you writing?"
Morgan: "It's a secret" (as he rolls over so no one can see what he's writing)

He finished the note and first thing in the morning he came in and woke me up.

Morgan: "MOM! The toothfairy came and left me a note."
R: "WOW, What did it say?"
Morgan: "Well, I wrote her a note that said, 'I want to see you pleeease. Love, Morgan'
R: "Ohh, what did she say?"
Morgan:
"Dear Morgan I'm sorry I can't wake you up when I come. It is against Toothfairy Rules. You are a good boy. Keep up the good Work. Take care of your new teeth! Love, The Toothfairy."

R: "That's really cool, Bud! Can I see the Note? Wow! She has really nice handwriting!" (hee hee--I couldn't help myself!)
Morgan: "Yep! and she left this money, too!"

Yeah, I guess we are really getting into this toothfairy thing---it is not the first time Morgan has had correspondence with the Toothfairy which makes it all the more amusing.

Morgan's "Red Hooded Sweatshirt"

Ok So I meant to post that little clip in a regular post, but couldn't do it for some reason.

I'm sure if you go back to past blog posts with Pictures of Morgan you will notice as I have that in a lot of them he is wearing his favorite, "Red Hooded Sweatshirt." He wears this thing everywhere, I literally have to sneak it away from him to wash it because he will pull it out of the dirty laundry and wear it dirty if I don't. I thought this Song was very fitting for him and his strange obsession with his Red Hooded Sweartshirt. For a good laugh and a glimpse into Morgan's Brain.... Click on the clip over to the right.

Micah's Film Debut

Micah got the oppurtunity to go to California fly in a N.G. movie trailor they are making with Kid Rock (Kind of like the "Army Strong" video). He of course had a blast and got lots of flight hours, Invited his brother and sister who live down there, onto the set. Trying to find the happy medium between the filmmakers picture and what the limitations of the helicopter were proved to be a bit more difficult, for example:
Director: "Can you get a little Lower and Slower"
Pilots: "No"
Director: "how bout just a bit slower"
Pilots:"Not unless you want us to crash"
The coolest part is that his sister who is used to being around people in the film industry walked around the set like nobody's business and No one ever questioned her. After they were done filming, they flew along the coast a bit and when they passed Santa Monica Pier, Micah said, "Bet there's a lot of people down there that don't like us.....Let's buzz 'em!" and so they did...all within legal limits of course.

Our last few months in a nutshell





Some photo explanations:
Jacksen got to have an "unbirthday" at preschool because his birthday falls during the summer and he wouldn't get the chance to celebrate at school so His Preschool teacher assigns a "birthday" to the summer birthday kids. The boys got to paint with Grandpa Chicken tweetie during our trip to utah for Memorial Day. They were in his little studio for the entire afternoon, and when Jacksen came upstairs for something he told me "We're in Painting Class with Grandpa" I thought that was pretty cute.

Oh and the Father's Day Picture...Micah trying to relax after Fathers Day dinner...Yeah right. And by the way those brown bottles in the background are from Henry Weinhards ROOT Beer which I got special for Father's Day Dinner because it is Micah's Fav.

At Cubscout Daycamp in Oregon, Morgan is wearing the hat and is the 2nd to the last on the right side during beebee guns...Cousin Andrew is next to him on the end. Those two had a blast at Nana's Daycamp. The birdhouse he is painting, he had to build (yes hammer and nail without predrilled holes!) the day before. We had a thoroughly exhaustingly fun trip. Morgan said "Being a cubscout was fun."

HEAR YE, HEAR YE...

All those who are wondering, Yesterday was our ultrasound and we are most definitely clear as day having another boy!
My Dr. didn't even say anything, he just pointed his little mouse arrow at the area and I looked and said, "It's a boy" and he said "Yep! your having another boy" and he laughed.

Quite frankly, I didn't care either way, I'm still just happy to have a healthy pregnancy. Miscarriages teach you not to be picky. Our only problem is that we had no trouble coming up with a girl name....It's the boy names We have problems agreeing on.

It is convenient though, At least now I don't have to change the title of my blog and I have most everything I need, barring a few updates on things. So there you all have it. I will get outnumbered once again and I am more than excited about it!

As soon as I can I will scan some of the ultra sound photos There is a really cute 4D one with him resting his chin on his fist.
