Daddy's Little Helper

Jamie is taking off for Miami this week for work so Morgan decided to help daddy pack...who can blame her for wanting to tag along, 80 degrees and sunny sounds pretty nice right now!

And one more nap together on the couch before daddy leaves...

Wheelie

Morgan's buddy Justin helped Morgan drive her 4-wheeler. Justin taught our little dare-devil how to pop a wheelie.

Morgan and Lydia

I found a few more pictures of Morgan and Lydia on my purse camera that I thought were worth posting. Grandpa Ptacek bought a wagon for rides when the girls are playing in the shop. I especially like the picture of the girls blowing kisses.

4-Wheeler

We finally assembled Morgan's new 4-wheeler so she could tear around the house. She was a little unsure what she was supposed to do with her new big girl toy at first, but she soon figured out how to opperate the push-button throttle and she was ready to go. She hasn't completely figured out how to steer yet, but we have a pretty long straight away from the hall through the kitchen that she cruised right down.

Occasionally Morgan runs into a few obstacles...we are working on reverse ;-)

Lenehan Christmas

We had a very busy holiday, running all over to the Iowa family Christmas celebrations. Here are few of the Lenehan family highlights...

Morgan with her buddy Reece Volk at the Schultz Christmas

If you know the Lenehans, you know it's not a "normal" bunch! Hence the christmas celebration featuring the ugliest christmas-themed attire everyone can find. We even found an ugly sweater for Morgan with a removable collar...pretty sweet!

Ptacek Christmas

With two little 16-month-olds, there was no lack of excitement at the Ptacek Christmas this year. When the girls weren't running around stealing each others sippy cups they were giving each other hugs or kisses with even the occasional sharing of cheerios. Grandma went a little nuts buying gifts (what else is new) and Jamie and Grandpa had to do some careful truck packing for us to get all the new loot back to Wisconsin...this had nothing to do with my after-xmas shopping ;-)

Grandma bought new dolls and a set of two bottles for each Morgan and Lydia. Lydia had her milk and juice bottles, but that wasn't enough, she needed Morgan's bottles too. When Dana told Lydia no that she needed to share, Lydia was not a happy girl.
