Nora's 3 month pictures

Nora had her second photo session done today. We went to Sears to get some pics done. I was soooo excited, we got there and Nora was not so excited. We took the first picture and our darling little girl changed. She started crying and turning red and was just not cooperative. I thought I was going to cry. I calmed her down and we did get some really nice photos. I hope you enjoy them. Let me know if you want one because I own the copyright to them!

Nora's Baptism

Nora's Baptism was this weekend. We had some family in from out of town and had a great time. Friday we went out to celebrate my graduation and Saturday we had a little shindig at our house after the baptism. Nora did a wonderful job. She looked so cute in her little dress, even if she was a slippery little thing. Our Pastor did a wonderful job and made the ceremony nice.

We came back to our house and had a great time playing with all of the babies and little kids. Staley didn't know what to think of all the commotion in the house. Especially with Mitchell chasing him and trying to climb on him. It is funny to see it happen the other way around. Brooke had a fun time playing with Candace and a cup of water. (cheap entertainment) Jalen and Sean had fun running outside and playing with each other. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day. I am so glad the weather cooperated with us. Who would have thought mid 80's with no humidity in the middle of August? Crazy, but we will take it.

I'm Done!!!!

This post does not contain any pictures, but it is in celebration of me being done with school. I started as Peter was finishing his MBA in May of 2006. I never thought when I started I would be so lucky to be where I am today. It has been a long 27 months, but I am lucky and blessed that I have been so supported by all of my friends and family. I have a great job, in the field of my choice, I have a loving and supportive husband and a beautiful baby girl! Who could ask for more! I have my Masters and am proud of it!

3 Months Old!!

Nora is 3 months old today. Here are some pictures of her in her Bumbo. I started putting her in it to help build her neck strength since the girl refuses to lift her head during tummy time. She is doing great! She is eating 6 oz. four to five times a day, taking two good naps, and sleeping 10-12 hours at night! She is our little angel.

Cubs Fan

Well since I promised people that I would do this I really have to. Nora wore her first Cubs outfit today. The Cubs play the Cardinals tonight in a rubber match. Dad had fun taking her picture today.

Our Growing Girl

Nora is growing so fast and getting so big! We don't go to the Dr. again until Sept., but I bet she weighs every bit of 12 lbs and almost 24 inches long. She is outgrowing her close so quickly. Yesterday she started to grab at objects. We found two new toys today. A square toy and a ball. She grabbed and played and smiled alot! She of course tried to put them in her mouth. Hope you enjoy the pics! See a lot of you soon at the Baptism!!!

Baby Parrothead

So Nora went to her first Parrothead function post being born. She attending her first one while still in womb, seeing Jimmy Buffett in concert in April. The Parrotheads had their annual beach party and we attended. She did great. Everyone was amazed at how good she was being despite how hot it was outside. Doesn't she look cute in her little hawaiin onsie?!
