"Monkey See, Monkey Do"

For anyone who's ever been 8+ months pregnant and can't touch their toes, you will appreciate this servant-like behavior done by Randall (and Morgan-haha). It all started with Liz feeling uncomfortable in her shoes due to long toe nails and inability to trim them herself. Then with some "buttering up", Randall (a little timid, for fear of cutting into skin) decided to relieve Liz of her oh so-long toe nails... what a great husband!


And as indicated by the pics below, Morgan who thought it was funny to see Daddy cutting Mommy's nails decided to get in the action... (not so funny at this point!)And to end this story, Morgan decided to be her independent self and start a business of her own, trimming toe nails. Haha! This is one task she is not ready for, but as the title reads "Monkey See, Monkey Do!" (It's the thought that counts).

6 weeks and counting...

Never too early to introduce a 21 month old to an ipod. Haha! Randall downloaded a few of Morgan's videos to the ipod and she thinks she's big stuff for using the headphones. She even knows how to scroll through the videos and take the ipod off of "hold". Morgan will soon pass us up on her tech ability.
Here, we are outside of Randall's parent's barn in San Antonio where we spent Thanksgiving. Morgan loves her wagon that Grammy bought for her. We took family pics w/Randall's family prior to this pose and thus the white shirts.. no we're not turning into one of those families that dresses alike on purpose. :) While in San Antonio, Morgan was able to play w/Grammy's dog (Grace's puppies- Golden Doodles- 2nd litter). Grace had 5 puppies this time- 2 girls(sold) and 3 boys (still need homes) and in theses pics, the pups are about 6 weeks old.
She loved playing w/the puppies. She treated them as if they were stuffed animals, just hugging them and kissing them all the time.

Thought we should probably update those of you who aren't able to see us much or at all this 2nd round of pregnancy. Here, Liz is 32 weeks along- but to date, she is 34 weeks along and counting down the next 6 weeks. Yeah! January 23, 2009 is the due date and we are totally ok if baby boy decides to come earlier!
Aww! As Morgan would say! This was a cute pic to share of Morgan, who is a Daddy's girl w/Randall and of course one of the pups.

Another update: Randall and Liz just flew in from Richmond, Virginia where Candidate Conference was held this past week. We had a great week and received much clarity and direction. God continues to be faithful as always and on with the process to go overseas we go...
