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!

Craft Day!!

Yesterday, Cheryl (my sister-in-law) put together a time for all of us ladies to get together and make cards and tags for this Christmas! We had great food and a fun time enjoying each others company. Those that attentended were: Trisha, Alicia, Aunt Linda, Aunt Vanessa, Amy, Rebecca, Amber, my mom, cheryl, Pam, and me!
It was a lot of fun! Cant wait for the Holidays


Amber and Trish, concentrating!

Four Graces

I went along with the girls to Four Graces which is a wonderful vineyard in Dundee. I went for the free truffles and to be their personal photographer :) The truffles were delicious and they loved their wine so we all win!!

So my mom came over today to check out the nursery and decided (for my sister-in-laws sake) to take some photos of the nursery as well as my baby "bump". Got to give my mom credit of her wonderful eye. Perhaps this is where Isaac and I get it from. I am about 6 weeks from my due date. I will probably grow a lot more!! The nursery is not done yet but I thought I should show the progress.




Did a little wardrobe change to give some flavor :) My mom and I made the bumpers...ok my mom did most of the work but I did do all the cutting!! We are now working on the skirt and the valence that will go over the window on the opposite side of her crib.

Those letters for her name took many steps to get to how they look now! 3 coats of paint, a coat of glossy paint and then drilling for the ribbon but it was well worth it!!

This cute piggy bank is from Auntie Trish from my first baby shower. It is set on top of Morgans dresser. I want to find a cute purple lamp to go next to it!

This is the view from the left of the door way. Auntie Leah painted the lamp to match her room decor...she did a great job! Those two ball lamps are from IKEA....They will be great night lights
