Morgan's 1st Holloween

Morgan was a cute kitty cat for her first Halloween! She was a great sport for most of the evening, until she became SUPER hot from the costume (Morgan gets hot easily...she gets it from her dad). We started out at our house with Grandma and Grandpa Marshall to get dressed up and take photos and then went to Faith Centers harvest party. At the harvest party, there were limited games for Morgans age which was a given but fortunately there was a kiddy pool with water and ducky's...a recipe for fun in Morgans book. Aunt Leah and Aunt Cheryl came, as well as Great Grandma Carolyn. Lots of Fun!!

(middle) There was a photo area for all the kiddos to take their picture...so cute (right) Aunt Cheryl helping Morgan land the pin wheel on the right candy...I think it was mainly for Cheryl ;)

The puppy and the kitty...THEY CAN BE FRIENDS!!!!

6 months!!! and changing times!

Ok, I realize it has been awhile since I have updated this blog :( Morgan is a week away from her half year birthday! crazy! She is very active; scooting around the living room on her back, she loves to kick her toy that plays music and lights up, and her newest thing, she is sitting up with no support except her own! Every morning she wakes up with a smile on her face which gives me complete joy. Something that Morgan does that makes me laugh hard is when she passes gas, she starts to laugh at herself. She is the happiest baby!




Isn't she precious!? This is her disposition most of the day...how blessed am I?

We are now living at Josh's dads house for the summer while our rental house is being built. Tom Becker has blessed us with a wonderful house for us to live in. If you know where Chris and Cheryl live, then you know where our house is....it is about 15 feet away from the Marshalls house!! We will have so many great memories with them...we are very excited!

I am starting a personal blog that will be following my weight loss. So check it out! I am also going full force with my photography business. So be ready for some new photos being featured this summer!

Josh is working hard at Costco. He has his eyes set on moving up the ladder there, so we are hoping and praying that God will open the doors for that. Please join us in prayer for that.

With love and joy

My precious Morgan...almost 4 months!

Morgan is 3 months old!!!

My baby is now 3 months old! She is now eating yummy cereal and is a pro at it. She makes cute little noises when eating...she probably learned it from me because the words "yum" always come out of my mouth :) She is such a great baby...sleeps well, eats well, and plays well! Josh and I are so thankful for a beautiful healthy girl. More photos are coming soon :)

Blogging at best :)

Well here she is! Morgan Grace van Baggen! I have realized that I havent been the best blogger in the world but I am going to try again to start posting. Its a nice way to document Morgans growth and what not so again I am going to try!


Here is Morgan Skyping with Auntie Jenni while playing under her tent. It was amazing to see her enjoy Auntie Jenni even though she is thousands of miles away! Crazy world we live in!



My happy girl! God has truly blessed Josh and I

10 DAYS!!!!

Hello friends!!

I thought I would write down a few thoughts that has started out my day!

I am sitting in my living room, when all of the sudden I realized....10 DAYS until my due date! Only ten days, yet it feels like time is standing still. It has become so uncomfortable, lugging around this cute little baby of mine. Luckily, no back pain but boy is it hard to move about! It has become a chore to even get up from a chair or get out of bed. Now I know why women are always ready to get their little love one out...not only because they want to see this little sunshine but to GET THEIR BODY BACK!!!!
Today I am off to purchase material to cover the FREE glider chair (thanks to Beth for that) that was given to us. I will post some pictures of my hard work :) (even though my mom will probably do most of it...she is so good at sewing!)
Have a wonderful weekend!!

A "mile"stone!

I was on my way back from a super fun photo shoot (coming this week..check out this blog for those pictures) when I looked down at my speedometer and saw something that was a once in a life time moment! My speedometer read 111111 miles! Check it out for yourself!
