Swimming Fun

We spent Saturday night at a hotel with grandma. The hotel is only about a half-hour from our house, but it has a swimming pool that is both indoor and outdoor. You can swim from the inside to outdoors. Since there is snow on the ground outside, it was fun for the kids to be outside swimming surrouded by cold and snow. The hotel also had lots of free kid-friendly snacks (popcorn, nachos, hotdogs, etc.) that the kids enjoyed on their swimming breaks.

And the animals are moving in also...

Ever since Morgan got out of the hospital, she has had some minor sleep problems. She got used to the 24 hour a day hospital activity, and she still has a little trouble going to sleep and staying asleep. She normally falls asleep in Mom and Dad's bed. Tonight, she must have decided to move in her animal friends as well. When Mom and Dad went into their room, they found Morgan sleeping in the bed and her animals arranged in a bed she made in the floor for them. She had obviously been up a while getting them situated.

Controversy

Seth and Morgan got into a heated argument before school this morning.

Morgan woke up this morning and said she had to look pretty for school. She made a big deal of picking out her clothes (mom vetoed the dress she really wanted because of the cold,) her hair bow, and her hair style. She walked around the house asking everyone if she looked pretty :-)

Seth quickly got annoyed by her. He told her that she doesn't have to look pretty for school. He said all she has to do is wear clothes. She insisted that he was wrong and she had to look pretty. Lydia took her side as well.

(She fell off a chair into a table a couple days ago which caused her swollen, scratched nose.)
