Make You Say "Awwww"

Just some updates as far as Norah pictures and videos!

99% of the time Norah refuses to take a pacifier, but she loves her thumb:


Grandma Wiley made a lovely floor blanket for Norah; we love it:


What a cutie! The onesie Norah is wearing in the pic below has a carton of milk on the front with the words, "can i buy you a drink". Cute, right?! Thanks Sylvia!


Grandma Jody (and Grandpa Kole) sent a wonderful package of clothes for Norah! Before this picture was taken, Norah was showing off the jersey...I just couldn't get the camera out fast enough to capture it:


New England was a bit chilly this morning. Norah really rocks a hoodie well:


Norah is acquiring new skills and refining other skills. Watching her develop is so amazing!


Life is the busiest it has ever been I think, but we are still managing to find time to spend together.
I love being a family.

Dental Hygiene

Norah freaking loves this toothbrush.

Almost...


Getting there...


Two-fist it for success! (TWSS?)


Stay Gold!

Things Aren't Alright

Norah becomes a whiny baby when she gets sick.



What a fusspot, eh?

My Own Babble

Just some thoughts while I have the time -

True or false. Women label other women as b*tches just because they are pretty, quiet, and frank. If you answered true, can you please explain to me how this came about? I think I missed the memo. If a woman is all three of those things, how does she avoid being labeled incorrectly?

I really do enjoy hot, summer days.

Who ever invented flip-flops was a genius. (and as a result, probably a billionaire.)

Norah is sick with her second cold ever. It sucks.

I like my job, a lot. But I will never understand why people get so worked up over petty and meaningless things...and then blame their feelings and emotions on other people. Dumb. But I guess without it, I wouldn't have a job.

My hubby is stressed. Sad face.

New In Town is a pretty good movie...Coraline however, is terrible.

I've started reading the second Harry Potter book. Woot. Hopefully I will find time to finish it sometime in this century.

Wayne's World is one of the best movies of all time. Sha-yah.

Yum. Coke Zero.

I enjoy getting mail. It's also fun when Norah gets mail!

People have been so great about helping us out by watching Norah; and in many instances...for free. We are so grateful.

Marshall and I need to pray together more. And cuddle more. And also, get tattooed more. Yep, true story.

I'm starving. Market Basket frozen pizza is delicious...and I'm gonna go eat some.
Delicious.

Hold Your Head High

Ahhhh, developmental benchmarks...

The Big 3!

The 3 of us have been enjoying some much needed time together. Here are a few pictures from the last couple of days:

One of the best Norah faces, ever...caught on camera!

A family day at the beach.

Norah caught mid-yawn.

Family beach photo. Too cute.

Marshall bought me flowers unexpectedly ! How sweet!

First time Norah has sat in the Bumbo Baby Seat - yay!

Norah after about 2 minutes in the Bumbo. I think she still has a month or two before she is really ready for it! :o)

Just hanging out together while Daddy was at his first day of training.

...Norah still loves bath time!

Life is good.
Love you all.

Youth and Imbecility

I think that Mr. Ferguson is speaking some truth here.


Given that I'm so quick to agree with this at such a young age, I am confident that I will become a super-crotchety man when I get old. It's something that I've accepted and that I'm looking forward to so much that I've already begun the work of trying to perfect an ultra-critical world-view.

Good times.

Stay Gold!

Pirate Baby

Dad sent Norah a couple of pirate-tastic onesies, so I took these pictures for him to see. Thought I'd share 'em with the rest of you, too.





Arrrrrrrrr-en't they cute?
