Nora: 6 month stats

This girl! Our sweet Nora is 6 months old, she was so good at her appointment on Saturday. She got measured, poked and prodded but only cried during her shots.And her pediatrician told us to start letting her cry it out at night. So last night we followed his instructions and we are all a little bit sleepy this morning. She is NOT giving in easily. 

Weight: 18 lbs (75-90%)

Height: 25 1/2 inches (25-50%)

Head circumference: 17 1/2 inches (90-97%)

Nora: 6 months

One week late...taken last night, poor lighting and all but I had to capture this sweet little 6 month old. Those cheeks and rolls are soooo sweet! Nora is sitting up on her own and enjoying learning to eat. She has tried bananas, sweet potatoes and avocado. She wasn't so sure about the avocado but liked banana and sweet potato. I have no idea what she weighs...we go in for her 6 month appointment on Saturday morning but I'm confident that she is healthy. We are thankful. 

Highlight of my day

Each day we get an email from school with pictures recapping activities from the day and these are the best emails I receive -it is good to know that someone is having fun! Here are a few of the pics ripped off the school blog posts/emails. 

GAK!!

Busted licking snot

Nora is practicing sitting up!

Going outside on a buggy ride with friends.

She is really sitting up so confidently--where did our baby go?

GO CHIEFS!

Claire says in a deep voice: "GO CHIIIIEEEPPS"! From worst to first, 7-0! Adam went to the game on Sunday with friends and we cheered from home. One of us was without pants...working on potty training. 

Nora: 5 months

This little cutie is 5 months old today! She is rolling from side to side and really interested in whatever her sister is doing. Claire "helped" me take this picture of Nora last night and of course then she wanted to join in the posing. All Nora wanted to do was pull Claire's hair. Sisters.

Lately

It's fall! We've been busy but I've been horrible about taking pictures. Here are a few phone pics of late: Nana set up a pumpkin hunt--big hit with Claire. We went to a fall party that included a hayride and fishing, we participated in the American Diabetes Association walk and Nora smiles through it all :)

She has a little scratch on her face and two band aids on her thighs (from shots) but this girl is so smiley. She is such a happy baby, loves to watch her sister. Nora has been talking up a storm lately, I always think she is trying to tell me she is hungry. Imagine.
