8 Years

morgan — Sun, 21 Nov 2010 23:20:54 +0000

Age: 8 years
Height:
Weight: 75 lbs.
Nicknames: Doofie head
Likes: I like playing with the computer and on the internet at Pixie Hollow, iCarly, and playing (mostly educational) flash games. My favorite colors are purple, pink, and green. I like hanging out with my friends: Jessica, Macy, Keeley, Sydney, Riley, Ashleen, and Sarah. I really like to play music over the TV and dance all over around the Living Room. I like the milk, ice cream, and cheese from Fair Oaks Farms. I really like to craft and make things out of paper, string, beads, glitter, stickers, etc.
Dislikes: I don’t like when I get in fights with my friends or when they don’t want to play what I want to play. I don’t like vegetables, so I eat them first when we have dinner.
Notes: Our trips this year were to Florida (Ft. Myers & Orlando), St. Louis, and Wisconsin Dells. I have Mrs. Shelby as my 2nd grade teacher and have been taking a lot of ACC Math tests and reading a lot of AR books all year. I tell Mommy and Daddy that I want a cell phone, but I don’t see that happening any time soon. Ok, I’ll just take a puppy instead!

Age: 7 years
Height:
Weight:
Nicknames: Una, Petunia, Crazy Legs
Likes: I like reading and even making my own books. I’m big in to watching iCarly, Phineas and Ferb, Wizards of Waverly Place, and SpongeBob SquarePants. I like playing with Parker…most of the time. I love going to Gibby’s for donuts in the morning, but also like eating corn dogs, breaded chicken sandwiches, shrimp on the grill, and scrambled eggs (not all at the same time!).
Dislikes: When Parker touches me. Except for, of course, the times when I’m trying to touch him…in which case I dislike that he gets mad when I touch him . For some reason, I don’t like hot dogs at all anymore. I really don’t like being told that it is time to turn off the TV! Gaaahhh!
Notes: We’ve traveled like crazy this year. First, a trip to Cozumel, Mexico on a big huge boat for Spring Break. Then, we visited the Great White North for Fall Break and saw Niagara and Toronto. I’m in Mrs. Hall’s First Grade class at Central and my best friends at school are Riley, Jessica, Sydney, and Keeley. I’m always crafting somehow…making something, drawing something, writing a story, or pretending to work or teach school.

Age: 5 years
Height:
Weight:
Nicknames: Little Miss, Sassafras Jr., Magil
Likes: I really like learning new things and am really big in to science. The good old Magic School Bus is still a big source of that, but I’m a sponge that soaks up everything from books and school. I like music and dancing, like High School Musical. I get super excited to do activities like crafts or science experiments. I’m still a girly-girl and like fairies, princesses, makeup, jewelry, etc. I like to eat waffles pretty much every morning for breakfast. I love my school and my teacher, Miss Michelle.
Dislikes: Trying new foods, trying on clothes, not getting an after school snack, the dark.
Notes: We’ve had some big adventures this year…we traveled to Florida to Ft. Myers and Disney World, Michigan with Gigi and Poppa, and a family trip to St. Louis. I had my first sleepover when my friend Ellie came to spend the night. I wear size 12 shoes and size 6 clothes. I give lots of love to my baby brother…I like to kiss on him, play with him, and tickle him all the time. My bedtime books are now either chapter books, or books that I’m learning to read for myself. I can swim like a fish in the pool and like to swim without my floaties! I did a great job as a flower girl in TC and Renee’s wedding. I’ve seen shows like Go Diego Go, been to a Pacers game, seen the circus, and have seen the Colts win a Super Bowl.

4 years

Age: 4 years
Height: 42 3/4 inches
Weight: 44 pounds
Nicknames: Big Sister, Banana Brains, Banana Nut Muffin
Likes: I still love movies and TV. My new favorite show is Magic School Bus. I love learning about new things and have started asking a lot of questions about what words mean, how they’re spelled, how things work, and the famous “why?”.
Dislikes: Getting sleepy and then being told that I’m sleepy.
Notes: I can sound out words and spell many of them from memory. I really like word and letter games, like trying to say all the animals we can think of that start with a certain letter. My coloring and projects have improved as I take more time and effort being precise. We moved in to a new house this year…right across the street from our old house. Also, I moved to a new school this year…out of Sonshine and in to Guardian Angel. The main reason was because Sonshine didn’t take little babies. Yup, the biggest news of my year has been the latest addition or our family, a stinky little boy brother! I really love him a lot and have been extremely helpful, loving, and patient.

Notes: Wearing size 4T and 9 shoes. I can spell Morgan, Mom, Dad, Cat, and I know my phone number and birthday. The potty stuff is down, so I get to wear My Little Pony, Dora, and Princess underpants. I’m really, really getting into girly things. Anything to do with dress up, makeup, doing hair, pink, purple, fairies, or glitter is a hit with me! I’m a big help in the kitchen when it is time to make lunch or dinner. I’ve been sleeping in my big girl bed since April. I like riding in the race car grocery carts and I buckle my puppy in the seat next to me. I love to play tag and hide and seek. I also like to pretend I’m a puppy, kitty, dinosaur, rhinoceros, or any barnyard animal. I still really love music…I sing and dance all the time.

At my new school, I learned how to say a prayer before I eat. I count to twenty all the time, and I’m learning how to recognize how many objects are in a group.

Dislikes: Being dropped off at school, being told what to do or how to do it, changes in my schedule.
Notes: I know most of my colors, shapes (like circles, squares, rectangles, triangles, ovals, diamonds, hearts), a lot of my letters. I started going to school at The Learning Tree. I’ve pooped in the potty twice and am starting to get the hang of it. Mommy and Daddy have lost count of how many words I know…I surprise them all the time by naming things that they didn’t even know that I knew. I broke my right leg just below my kneecap in an unfortunate jumping-off-a-big-baseball-at-the-playground incident.

I don’t exactly get the numbers or letters right all of the time, but I like to imitate the meter and enunciation.

I know where my nose is, and sometimes I stick my finger up there. I’m a little more weary of new people. I’m beginning to show my “opinions” a more frequently by throwing tantrums. I am pretend playing a little, I scribbled for the first time on Mommy’s birthday, and I have started playing dress-up with Grandma French’s brachlets and bead necklaces. Medical Note: I have a baby hernia…it will probably fix itself as I grow up…no worries.
