Just some happy thoughts...


How can you not smile with these big eyes staring up at you?

The last couple of days have been SO lovely for me.
Roman is seeming to really develop a good sleeping schedule.
That last two nights he has slept through the night and
taken two or three GOOD naps during the day.
As I type, he has been asleep for almost THREE hours for his mid-day nap.
I think I will wake him up soon...


Anyway, lately, I have been soooo humbled and so deeply thankful
for all of my many blessings. I have read a few heart wrenching stories about little babies who are suffering. It makes me just want to squeeze my little guy a little longer.

Casey is my best friend. He is my hero. I don't know how he does what he does. I have said it before, and I"ll say it again... He is such an amazing person and I will never know how he balances full-time work, full-time school and full-time Daddy and Husband and Friend. If you don't know him, you are missin out!

Last Monday, we went snowboarding together for the FIRST time! I don't know why it took us so long to go together!! We had such a great time! I loved seeing Casey doing his thing up there on the beautiful mountain! It was so hot!! ha ha.
J\k.
But really, it was.

We are having a really good winter.
REALLY enjoying our new home and our new family of 3.
I have lots of goals for this year.
I will fill ya in on a few next time.
I promise to be better at blogging.
For my own sake, really.

I hear a little Bubba talking...
time to go!!

Bleh.

I am in a blogging rut.
Actually, I am kind of in an everything rut.
I think it's the Winter.
Plus my camera is dead. Has been for a month now.
You think it would be an easy task to, uh.... PLUG it in.
But no, I NEVER remember to do so.
And so, my camera is ALWAYS dead.
So, I hope you all are doing well.
Maybe the winter blues have found you too??
Updates coming soon...
maybe.

What a Merry Christmas!

What a sweet Christmas we had this year.
So much fun with Mr. Roman.
He got some new Binky's and a couple new outfits from Santa.
And lots of fun toys and clothes from his Grandparents.
It was so fun too,
having our own home to wake up in on Christmas morning.
Speaking of Christmas morning...

Here we are in all our morning glory!
~~~
We had a wonderful Christmas this year.
My heart is extra full.
I am so humbled by our many, many blessings.
We had a beautiful Christmas Eve,
where we really focused on the Savior.
The true meaning of the Season.


We hope you had a Merry Christmas too!
Love, The Morgans

Little Buddies

Last week, my friend Stacy brought her little boy over to play!
He is 4 weeks older than Roman.
It was so cute to watch them interact.

Okay, seriously? He could not get any cuter.
No wonder why I can't get anything done!
I can't get my lips off of this boy!

They held hands for 10 minutes straight.
So cute.

And here is our perfect little Christmas Tree.
{Perfect in our eyes. :) }
We have been busy trying to get the house in order before Christmas.
So much work to be done, and so little time!

We've Moved....

We have been a bit tied up lately...
We moved last weekend.
Moving is exhausting.
I hope we don't do it again for a long, long time!
~~~
More pics coming soon.
{because some of you keep asking}

{p.s.} How on earth is Christmas a week from today??
All I know is I can't wait!!

{p.p.s} I just have to give my sweet hubby a shout out...
Today is his last final.
Then one more semester and he is DONE!!!
How he balances work, school, & family, I have no clue.
But every day I love & admire him more.

Mr. Romes is a ladies man.



Last night Roman met Santa for the first time!
It was so cute! He isn't old enough
to freak out or anything. So he pretty much just sat there.
I had way more fun than he did!

The weekend of Thanksgiving we went up to
the cabin with some of the Morgan's.
This is Hannah, Lily & Roman.
It's so cute to see them all together.
It's hard to look at anything in this picture besides Lily's hair!
Is that the craziest SIX month old you have ever seen??


I love this cute one of Roman! Look at his huge eyes!
What a cute boy!!

This is the day after Thanksgiving.
~Jaidyn, Roman, Camry~
Cousin Love!

And I had to put this cute smiley one of Camry!
Roman is one lucky dude to grow up surrounded by all these beautiful women!

Oh, and in case anyone cares, here are the stats from
Romans 2 month Dr's appointment
Weight: 11 lbs 14 oz.
Height: 23 inches
He is in the 55% for every catagory! Even his noggin.

Also, we are moving next week!
We get the keys to our house on Monday.
Stay tuned...

What do you know for sure??


This last weekend I had the blessing of being able to go downtown with my Mom and Sisters to "Time Out For Women." It is kind of like a mini Education Week or Women's Conference. They do it all over the Nation. It is sponsored and put on by Deseret Book. This year they finally came to Salt Lake City! It was a lot of fun and very edifying. There were several great speakers, including Sheri Dew, Michael Wilcox and Wendy Watts Nelson. Jenny Oaks Baker did the music on Friday night and Hilary Weeks was there for Saturday. It was really fun. I really suggest you look into going next year! You can find out more by clicking HERE.

The theme was SWEET ASSURANCE. They talked about the sweet assurances that we have here on this Earth. They asked us to think about this question:
What do I know for SURE?
...
  • Well, one thing I know for sure, is that when all is said and done, all that matters is my family. My Husband. My Baby Boy. Not my house, not my car, not the clothes I wear, not how much money we make, NOTHING.
  • I know that the Savior lives and is real and is here for me.
  • I know that families can be together forever, thanks to the Atonement and the blessings of the temple.
What do you know for sure? I would love to know...

On this day...

...
on this day, 3 years ago,
i married mr. casey b.morgan.

on the morning of that day, i woke up totally calm
and collected. i was not one bit nervous.
i knew i was making the best- and the most right decision
that i would ever make.

this morning, 3 years later,
i woke up with that same feeling.
it's true.
it was the best decision i ever made.
and this morning when casey kissed
me goodbye as he left for work...
i knew it could only get better from here.

happy anniversary, case.

We are lucky to have such wonderful friends and family.
It was such a sweet day!
Casey gave Roman such a beautiful and sweet blessing.
Our hearts feel full this week.
...
On a side note, Case and I made pizza tonight.
Homeade crust and all.
I had to take pics. It was so freakin delish.
{Sorry, I just was really proud.}

...
And moving on...
We had a great Halloween this year.
We are finding out that everything is just a little bit
more fun with a little baby side-kick.

Watch your back!
This was the scariest Dino on the block!

See how scary?
Ha ha.. the little guy was all tuckered out!

Soy-Man and Romes.
...
We had to make a stop up to the J&E Morgans house.
Jared's sweet Mom makes all these millions of
doughnuts every year for all the trick or treaters and the parents!
Its so fun every year to go and get our doughnuts. :)
It was a great Halloween!
How was yours??
