Morgan Elise turns 5!!

On Wednesday, November 9th, Morgan Elise turned 5! She requested pancakes for breakfast so I woke up early to make them. I also brought her class a cookie cake. She was treated to a surprise at school when her mammy(my mom) stopped by with a baloon and presents. Since it was a gymnastics night we had our weekly ritual at Double Dave's following the girl's class and asked my inlaws to join. My parents are both out of town and will celebrate with her when they return!(the girls will have a joint bday party but not until Dec)

How old are you Morgan?
Morgan has been wanting an American Girl doll for probably about the last six months. Here is Julie her new best bud!!


Mamaw and her girls!!

Case, Morgan and Mallory

The crew minus Case who by this time was running circles around DDs!!

Once we got home and put Case to bed we sang to Morgan and let her have her birthday cake. Lonnie's request for Morgan was yellow cake with chocolate icing....not sure who wanted that more :)

6 birthday candles...5 plus 1 for good luck! Her wish will come true

Mallory has a journey doll named Meredith and she is modeling one of the outfits Mamaw got Morgan's doll for her birthday- luckily they are good about sharing. Morgan is wearing the pink scarf that Mammy made her for her birthday.

Best Friends: Julie and Meredith

I took Morgan in for her wellness check and to say it was an experience is an understatement. When we got there Morgan overheard that she would be getting 3 shots plus flu vaccine up her nose. When the doctor came in Morgan was hiding under the table telling the Dr. no...I told her she wasnt't the one that even gives the shots. After her check up and all was good, the nurse came in with the dreaded needles! Let's just say Morgan is one strong little girl and if you were down the hall you would have heard her screaming. The good news- no more shots until she is 10. I think it might take her that long to recover anyway.

Height: 45 3/4 inches: 96%
