First Flight





So Nora took her first plane ride this past weekend. We went to visit Aunt Colleen, Uncle Scott, Allison and Danny in Omaha. I was a little nervous about flying but much to my surprise Nora did great!!! Would we expect anything less from the best baby in the whole world?! I think not. She did great on the flight there. We had a bottle while taking off and did the pacifier on the way down.

Once we got to Omaha Nora was loved immediately by Danny. He wanted to do everything for her and with her. He was sooo cute with her. Danny is three and fed and held and played with Nora for three days! He referred to her as his baby. Uncle Scott helped out and trimmed Nora's nails while we were there because I am still afraid to cut them. We had a lot of fun visiting and shopping. We were sad to go, but can't wait to come back!

2 month old Bathing Beauty
























Nora is officially two months old today!!! I cannot believe it, the time is going by so fast. We visited the doctor this past Tuesday and she got her 2 month shots. She wailed, but survived. Mom didn't even cry! She officially weighs 11 lbs. 1 oz. and is 23 in. long. Our girl is growing! Nora got to meet even more family this week. Her cousins from Virginia came into town this week. She also went swimming for the first time! She loved it. We all had a great time visiting with everyone. Now we are just waiting for all of Nora's friends to come swim with her!

Chicago Roadtrip




Nora survived her first of many roadtrips to Chicago. She did wonderful in the car. On the way there we only had to stop once! We had a lot of fun while we were there. She got to wear the adorable outfit from her cousin Jamie! It said "First 4th of July" on it and it had matching shoes. On Sat. July 5th Nora got to meet her extended family from Chicago. Grandma and Grandpa had a BBQ so everyone could meet the newest edition! Nora got to meet so many new people and loved every minute of it. We had so much fun and Nora was so good. She is just a little social butterfly! On Sunday Nora had her first dining out experience at Lou Malnati's Pizzeria (one of mom's favorite places to eat). She did excellent. We can't wait to see most of you again at Christmas time!
