Hey there everyone...Hope you are all doing well! We are having an awesome summer 2009! It is just amazing to us that it is already August... before we know it, summer will be over. At our house we have loved the weather, a rare 90 degrees is fantastic! Well since our last update we all went up north camping with Grandma and Grandpa Morgan and Bonnie and Randy Sexton. We had so much fun, we left on a Sunday and came home on Thursday evening, so it was a wonderful week. We had really nice weather, a night or two of rain and one day of rainy weather, but otherwise it was just great! And we stayed in the camper cabin at Jay Cooke State Park, which was wonderful! We will certainly do that again because it was much nicer with two children than laying on the ground on sleeping bags! I got to do a lot of biking, running, and walking so that was great with me! Scott did some fishing with his Dad and Randy. And I also ate lots of fabulous fudge and a HUGE caramel apple from Rocky Mountain Fudge Shop in Duluth...which if I can make a recommendation...DO stop here! It has such fabulous treats! We just had a great family vacation, that was MUCH needed for all of us, and Henry and Olivia were just excellent!
After that vacation it was back to the real life realities of cooking, cleaning, working, and all that mundane stuff! Then we had Benjamin Donnay's Baptism, which was just great! Henry was happy because he got to see all of his Albers aunts, uncles and cousins! Which is always a plus for him! Now this week we have been nice and busy as well...yesterday was National Night Out and I took Henry and Olivia to the Fire Station, where there was a pot luck and all the firetrucks for Henry to explore and two cop cars...which he thought was really cool! He also won a prize...a really annoying duck that sings loud and dances! and a water bottle and a cute bag to carry them all in! He loved it!
Today Henry had his first dentist appointment in Lake City. He did such a great job. The dentist said that not very many two year olds sit as well as he did. I was so proud of him! Then we went to look at all the sail boats, which Henry thinks are the coolest! And Henry played at the park in Lake City...he was wiped out by the time we got home! But...of course since he took a 20 minute nap in the car that was it! And tonight we went to the Waterski Show on Lake Zumbro with Grandma and Grandpa Albers and Gavin, too! Henry thought it was pretty fun to get to see the waterskiiers!
Well...Hope you all have a great August and I will attach a link to see some photos of the cute kiddos! Enjoy, The Morgans

Summer Fun!
Happy July,
Sorry that it has been so long since we have updated! We have been staying busy doing many different summer activities! Since our last post Scott went on vacation with the Albers Men up to the Cabin in Winter! They had a good time from the sounds of it, but I was very happy when he returned...as I was not meant to be a single parent! I need a little me time most days! But he was a very nice hubby and did bring me some fudge home! So I was very grateful for that! We had Scott's Aunt Pam's Wedding and Leahs graduation all on June 20th so that was one busy day but everyone was happy to see Miss Olivia and Big Brother Henry! Everyone at Leahs graduation was also lucky enough to meet baby Benjamin, who is such a little sweetie! He has such a nice head of hair! I cannot wait to see him again! The following weekend I took Henry and Olivia to the Lake City Waterski Days to see the parade, that was kind of a disappointment! ALthough Henry did get to see his Big Cousin Ethan and since that day Henry prefers to call tractors "M-e's" just the way that both Gavin and Ethan say it! And "Yep" because that is another little word that Ethan must say quite often! Then last weekend we went to the Mazeppa parade on Friday night with Grandma A, Grandpa A, Lynn, Amy and Ethan so Henry again thought that was great, Olivia on the other hand, thinks the parades were a bit too loud! But of course she quieted right down for Grandma, as always! And yesterday, Gma and Gpa Albers watched both kiddos while scott and i worked and they took them to Lake City to go for a boat ride with Uncle Lynn! Henry is in heaven by any boat or big truck so he was in heaven most of the day! Thanks Gma and Gpa Albers for making their day so much fun! Henry is always wanting to go to either set of grandparents house because he knows he will always have fun and have a ride of some sort on a tractor, four wheeler, skid loader, argo..or something that is way more fun than at home! Oh and last week we also went to our first Rochester Honkers Baseball game, it was such a blast! Thanks Gma and Gpa Morgan! We had a great time and already hoping to go again some evening!
Henry's Achievements since last update!!!:
Count to 30...although he is quite certain that their is a twenty-ten!
Knows all of his Letters, Uppercase and Lowercase
Can spell HENRY and SCOTT
Also, RIO, DOG, CAT, BALL, NANA, MOM, DAD, WOW, HOP, POP,
Everyday he is starting to say new phrases or words, a few weeks ago he figured out how to say "absolutely not" because that is what I say if I do not want to say "NO" one more time! It is too darn cute coming out of his mouth!
He Hates time out and gets so sad if you even mention it!
And he is getting better and better at puzzles!
Henry's Favorite Things:
Food: Hot Dog w/ ketchup and Mustard
Toy: Blue Bear followed closely by Black bear
Book: giggly and wiggly
Clothes: Hockey Socks- MN WILD socks!
Place: Park or Gprts house!
Thing to do in Zumbrota: Walk up to Main Street(w/ mom and Baby O) and watch for Big trucks, but really he does not care..he sits and waves and YELLS " HI Car, hi pickup, hi big truck, hi motorcycle" he LOVES it...it is free...and again...he loves it...so we do it!
Olivia's Achievements:
Rolls over from tummy to back
Back to tummy
can sit up okay by self, but better w/ boppy pillow!
Giggles, loves raspberries on her belly!
LOVES to watch and look for Henry!
Smiles MUCH more than Henry ever did!
Sleeps from 830-5 and 5-8! what a great baby!
Likes to hang onto anything and everything!
Dislikes long car rides! She gets a bit bored in her carseat!
Well Hopefully I will add some photos and a link to more photos of these two cuties and next week I will be able to add some more photos from vacation...yes you read that correctly I do officially get to go on vacation next Sunday-Thursday with Scott, henry and Olivia as well as Gma and Gpa Morgan, Bonnie and Randy up near Duluth! Hopefully we have good weather and I am positive we will have a good time!

Summers a-comin'
Hey Everyone,
Hope you are all enjoying the nice weather that is finally here! Thank Goodness! We have been busy going for walks to the park and playing outside in the dirt as much as possible as that is all Henry wants to do from sun up to sundown! He is getting to such a fun age now, he can talk so much better and we can really understand most of what he says! He still is totally into reading books and diong puzzles but he also loves to be outside, probably more than anything else! Since we updated last henry turned 2, but of course he had to have Rotavirus then! It was so much fun! he got that the night before Aunt Bonnies wedding to uncle Randy and then he was kind of sick the whole next week! I think everyone that came into contact with him got some form of the virus! But Henry got so many nice toys! Now he is having so much fun playing with them all! Olivia is also getting to be so big, she has the brightest smiles with the cutest dimples! She is just a doll! I cannot believe that she is almost 4 months old already! The time has just flown by! Scott and I have been busy trying to finish the rest of the basement and a few outside projects this spring, hopefully one of these days we will win the powerball and then we can finish the rest of our projects! Most of our time though is spent playing with Henry and Olivia when we are not at work, and that is worth way more than any amount of money! We just love them so much and have so much fun! Well, I will try to add some pictures in the next few days so that you can see just how cute they are! Have a great week! ~The Morgans
