7. Morgan gets his last feeding of the night from a bottle. His Daddy feeds him.
8. Before going to bed, Morgan gets a little bath and then gets dressed in his long sleeve shirt and a sleep sak. His Daddy hates the long sleeved shirt because he can’t figure out the buttons.

23. Morgan helps Mommy and Daddy do their chores in his baby carriers or in his stroller.
24. But the truth is, Morgan usually wants all attention to be on him, or else to be walked or bounced, so doing chores is usually a pipe dream.
