My Helpful Husband

Clint is such a great husband. He loves to help me remember things. You see, I have a horrible memory. I seriously forget EVERYTHING. Sometimes I remember them later, other times I have absolutely no recollection of doing or saying something. So, Clint likes to help me remember to do certain things.

You can't say he's not polite!!

A Solution to Too Much TV

We got a kitty this week. His pregnant mother was found tied up in a garbage can. Soon after she was rescued she gave birth to 6 kittens. Can you imagine! Pregnant with 6 babies and tied up to a dumpster!! Where's the humanity? Anyway, we brought Sam home and he and Morgan have quickly become BFF's. Since bringing Sam home Morgan has not been asking for TV quite as often, much to my relief!! Her and Sam chase each other around for the better part of the day.

Independence Day

We had a great 4th of July. Around 4 we went to Yongsan for the celebration. We had dinner and then hung out with our great friends. The kids danced, ate junk, and sweated their bums off. It was so incredibly HOT and HUMID! But we enjoyed ourselves none the less.

Raise your hand if you want to kiss those adorable cheeks!!

J and Mo loved the fireworks. I thought Morgan would be scared at first but she screamed and laughed and ran around saying "WOW!!!" It was great. J wasn't scared either, which surprised me. He was quite facinated.

This crazy dude just made us laugh. I had to get him on video.

Yesterday we were out and about in Korea. We were walking down this street just looking around and Clint noticed an alleyway that had lots of people and stands were people were selling stuff. He's says, "hey, lets go look over there, that looks like a market." So we turn down this street and we see dogs. We're like, "oh great, Morgan will LOVE seeing some animals." But then we noticed the cages of dogs had hundreds of dogs in them and they were just piled on top of one another. They were sickly looking dogs. All the same "breed". We saw a few cages of goats and chickens too. Then we realized this was not a place to see cute little cuddly dogs. This was a meat market. It was a market where you choose your dog (or chicken or goat) and they butcher it right there for you!! As soon as we realized this we turned around and got out of there. It was one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen. It was so sad. They just breed hundreds of thousands of dogs for meat. Of course, we do the same thing with chickens and cows, etc. But it was a whole different story seeing dogs that way. We didn't get any pictures. I should have. It was so crazy!

Modeling Shoot #8 DAKS Kids

Morgan was really good at her modeling shoot today. They were modeling winter clothes outside in the 85 degree 98% humidity weather. The other 2 kids didn't do so well, we sat around waiting for a LONG time. But I was pleasently surprised and happy that Morgan was better than usual.

I have no idea why they made her hair so frizzy, it would have been much cuter if they had left it in its non-frizzy wringlet curls.

Taking a break and finding some shade.

Just a shot of the designer and hairdresser fidgeting with Morgan. You wouldn't believe the amount of work that goes into getting one good picture.

Another shot of everyone working so hard to get the perfect shot. Photographer, light guy, designer, modeling agent/entertainer.

On the way home. If you look closely you can see her drool running down her chin and onto the straps of her carseat. Boy, she's just like her dad ;)

Morgan's First Slumber Party

Last night Morgan's 2 cute little friends spent the night. They were so good and had so much fun. We will definitely do it again.

Bath time. Lucille is throwing up a peace sign because thats what Koreans do in just about every picture they take. Its funny that Lucille does it.

Getting ready to watch "Planet 51"...Morgan trying to do a peace sign like Lucille.
Eating breakfast this morning.
My attempt at Mickey Mouse pancakes :)

COEX Aquarium Again-June 26, 2010

Our friends, the Feher's, invited us to spend their last weekend in Korea with them. We went to the aquarium for little Kayden's first birthday.

Shortly after this picture was taken, the bus driver slammed on the breaks and Morgan went flying head over heals, heals over head onto the floor of the bus.

I tried to take pictures of different things this time.
Looking at a chipmunk.

There's little tiny fish in the lights.

Also fish in the soda machine

Funny stretchy mirror.

If you look closely you can see a little orange fish hiding in the hole.

Fish in the sink

and in the fridge.

Amazon people. A friend of mine told me once that I was like a beautiful Amazon woman. I don't think it was a compliment, although she meant it that way :)

This was my favorite display. In honor of the World Cup.

Debbie, Kayden, big Morgan, and little Morgan

Salt Water Crocodile. I didn't even know they had crocodiles in salt water. Interesting.

At one fish display they had these HUGE GIGANTIC fish. Like the size of Morgan, but thick and probably twice as heavy as her. Morgan wanted Clint to hold her up so he picks her up, she peaks up over the top of the tank, and throws her graham cracker in the tank. These fish went NUTS over the cracker and started fighting for it. Water was splashing everywhere. I thought these gigantic fish were going to jump over the side of the tank. It was so funny! Of course we walked away and acted like we had no idea what was going on :)

See-la-lala

The other day Clint and I were in our bedroom talking. Morgan had been playing quietly for quite a while. Next thing we know she comes running into our room, dressed in the outfit below and says, "Mommy, pretty See-la-lala" (Cinderella).
I must say, I'm quite proud of her for dressing herself. Everything was on correctly. However, since this day, she has been dressing herself everyday and usually something, or everything, ends up backwards or inside out and she refuses to allow me to help her.
