So full of personality!


Nora is developing such a fun personality. She is so full of new tricks lately. Most recently, she has been pulling herself up on us or anything she can get her hands one. She has started to pucker her lips together and suck in making a really funny face, and kissing sound...so cute. She also LOVES to feed herself. Whenever we are holding her and eating something at the same time she tries to grab it.

She got a hold of TJ's apple. She couldn't get anything off the apple, but thoroughly enjoyed sucking on it.

She still loves her piano and loves to shout...or sing, while banging on it. (this little dress she has on has leather straps on the shoulder...hysterical)
She loves playing with her toys. Her favorite toy right now is this silly doll. It was a random toy my mom bought for her. It is seriously the scariest doll ever. It makes noises out of the blue. I swear, we will walk by it and all of a sudden it starts to talk..."mama, dadda, or I love you" and we won't even touch it. IT freaks us out all the time, but Nora loves it.
This outfit cracks me up. Jean leggings, leg warmers, and a furry vest...come on!

She's striking a pose...notice the leg. I think she was listening to Beyonce soon "if you like it then you better put a ring on it"
Today we went to the Boat and R.V. show in the city. WE WANT AN R.V.! They are AWESOME! Nora seemed to enjoy all the people, going in and out of the R.V's and all the boats.
She also likes to eat organic puffs while strolling about!

As always, we are loving every moment this little girl has brought to our lives. I just can't get over how much we love her. Having her makes us realize how lucky and blessed we are.

Lastly, I am sure everyone reading this knows about what is happening in Haiti right now. TJ did some service work there in 2001. He spent the majority of his time at orphanages run by an organization called Hearts With Haiti . If anyone is making donations, the this organization is wonderful and desperately needs help now. It is just heart braking to see all these children and babies without parents or homes. If you are interested this is the website... www.heartswithhaiti.org

Too much fun! I can't believe she is getting ready to be on the go!!!!

The scary doll is hysterical! If you want a seriously cute, adorable, time-tested doll that will grow with her, check out the Corolle dolls. They start soft and plush and have others for older girls.

This is the link for the stuffed dolls, Norah has the "flowers".
