Merry Christmas

Updated 12/23: Nora got an early Christmas gift yesterday-her first tooth poked through!

Nora wishes each of you a Happy and Healthy Holiday filled with smiles!

Pictures

With the exception of a visit from Grandma and Grandpa K, there hasn't been much going on here recently. But there are always pictures to share...


We went and got a Christmas tree Friday morning, Nora loves to touch the branches (which inevitably makes the needles fall off...)

We went for a walk in the park in Denver on Saturday.

Before heading to the airport, a goodbye snuggle.

Photo Shoot

Nora is rooting for the Packers for the final time this year; good thing the season is nearly over because her outfit is too small!


Thanks to St. Nick aka Grandma Barb for this reindeer bib!

We tried to have a photo shoot yesterday to get a good picture for our holiday card. It didn't go so well, we just couldn't capture that image I had in my head. Here are a few that didn't make the cut:

Sunday morning, this is what we found in Nora's crib. Not exactly the swaddled baby lying on her back in the sleep positioner that she was when I put her down!

We gave her a sippy cup to play with, it looks almost as big as her head!

Sorry if this post seems a little out of order-something strange is going on with this website and I can't move the photos around like I used to. It's a real pain to try to upload the photos in the exact reverse order in which I want them to appear...

6 Months Old!

Today Nora is 6 months old, time flies! This morning we visited the doctor for another weigh in-15 lbs exactly! She's in the 25% for weight and 50% for height (25 3/4 inches). Unfortunately, this 1/2 year birthday came with 4 shots in her legs :( She did get over them quite quickly though.

Thanksgiving was a week ago already... It was a beautiful day here in CO, Nora practiced her sitting-up skills and explored the grass:





Jeff, meanwhile smoked this beauty:



The day after Thanksgiving we did a little bit of shopping; Nora and Jeff played while I paid.

We're still working on food. Nora just isn't a fan of cereal so we've moved on to sweet potatoes.

Though she seems to enjoy them, she'd honestly prefer to eat her bib over anything else. You'd think these plastic bibs are coated in sugar!

Most of all, Nora just likes to play.
