As everyone knows, today is Nora's First Birthday! It has been a wonderful, fun year-all documented in previous posts. Nora will be having a birthday party in a couple of weeks when family members are visiting. Today, she wore a new dress to daycare, I sent whole wheat banana muffins for her class and we're having cake with the neighbors tonight.It has been a while since the last post, mostly because we've been busy! Nora has been enjoying the warm weather, and this flat ball borrowed from the neighbor's yard.
Two weekends ago, Nora and I did a 5K walk with friends. She seemed ready to walk the whole way herself!
But really, she was just excited for the Cheez-Its at the end!
Jeff and Nora each enjoy a bottle...
Bath time remains challenging, Nora loves to drink that water and ends up with a bubble beard every time :)
The challenge doesn't end when she gets out of the bath; drying off, lotioning up and diaper installation is quite a process.
Grandma and Grandpa Koski got stuck in Denver for 24 hours. In honor of finally making it to Minneapolis (to see baby Croix), I dressed Nora in her 'Somebody in Minneapolis Loves Me' tshirt.
Looking out the window one morning.
Nora is getting smarter-when she runs out of food on her tray (which does happen, her appetite has really increased the last week) she looks for crumbs in her bib! She also holds her bib out and rolls food around on it. Who knew a bib could be so much fun!?
Every once in a while, Nora accidentally lets you know she's tired.
For Memorial Day weekend, we went to the mountains and stayed with friends Scott and Megan. Saturday morning the guys went biking while the girls went hiking. Hiking with Nora on my back was not easy, but she had no problem with it and even took a snooze.
Later, Jeff pulled Nora in the Burley up the big hill to Beaver Creek. Nora did some rock climbing while the adults had a drink.
She has a pretty comfortable ride in the Burley!
On Sunday, after mountain biking in the morning, we hiked in the afternoon. Nora enjoyed the ride once again, waving some wheat in her hand.
On Monday, we were back in Denver and the Berg family came over for a dip in the pool. Instead of Sawyer, Rocco rode with Nora in the wagon this time.
And finally, Nora not only likes to walk with her walking car; she'll use her high chair or, in this case, the laundry drying rack, to walk with!

I can't believe she's a year old already. Can't wait to see the pics of her birthday party when the whole group is there to celebrate:-)
