play-doh!

the end of our trip. look at those happy children!

she had daddy just where she wanted him. she dragged him into the bathroom, then told him he had to lay like that and she covered him up and told him he had to go to sleep. then, she got frustrated when she couldn't close the door because his head was in the way (and he got frustrated because i took the picture!!!)

my cute baby. up on all fours. still a few movements, then propelled by the fall. but, he sure gets around! FAST!!

we put new Christmas lights up, because her tree died. (let's be honest, it was from my junior year of college.... good old lund apartment!) i found her standing like this (for about five minutes), looking at them.

i was going to only put one on, but both shots are TOO CUTE. umm... who do you think stands like that?? yup. me.

this morning, nora wanted to get on the couch and read stories. since i wasn't feeling well, i told her i wanted to get some tea first. she then told me she wanted some tea too, in her flowered up just for her (my mini starbucks tumbler). then, she climbed on the couch with it and told me we were going to have our coffee and read stories. after the picture, she told me "no cheeses, mom".

note to self... homemade play-doh, while all household ingredients, doesn't sit well in the dogs stomach. and it's not fun to clean up the dog's throw-up when you already aren't feeling good. at least nora seems okay!! and she loved the play-doh!

since it's exceptionally unfair that the pictures of james (and even vids) pale in the number compared to what nora has, i figured i would put this one on. i was uploading pics with him in the excersaucer. he was playing and kept putting his head down to try and see the worm there. it was so cute! he did it like ten times in a row. then, i turn the camera on, and it takes him FOREVER to do it! but, he's a cute boy! we are thankful!
