We have a Middle Schooler and Two more teeth!

Lots going on here at the McNab household.

MORGAN GRADUATED FROM FIFTH GRADE!!!! I cannot believe that my Morgan is growing up. She starts middle school in the fall. Not only did she graduate, but she received the President's Education Award. This is an award the is award to students who among other things, maintain a 3.5 grade average. 25 out of 70 fifth graders received this award and Morgan was one of them!! She received a letter from Barack Obama! She also received the School Safety Patrol Award of Merit for outstanding Patrol duty. Only 6 students out of the 30+ patrols received this. We are so proud of Morgan. Here are some pictures of our graduate!!







Morgan's walk at the clap out...this is where everyone in the school and parents clap out the fifth graders as they exit the elementary school one last time :(








Let's start with Bella. Bella is working on two more teeth. She is teething hard and has not been happy about it :( Aside from the teething, she is so much fun! Her new things are pretending to talk on the phone. She says "HEWO" and when either she drops something or sees/hears someone drop something, she says "UH OH." She is so much fun! She is crawling, standing holding on, walking holding on and walking holding one hand. Full blown walking is just around the corner; I can feel it!

Bella is getting some hair, although most is in the back...kind alike a mullet :)hehe.....She eats mostly anything we eat. She prefers to eat finger foods, not baby food. She loves Spanakopata (spinach pie), hot dogs, carrots, and pretty much anything else! Can't believe she is almost 11 months old!
