Norah is one month old!



My name is Norah & I am one month old. I smile when my dad kisses my face and my mom sings "You are my sunshine." I wiggle my toes when I drink my bottle. I find light fixtures and windows fascinating. And I love to sleep everywhere but my crib!

Visiting Aunts

We had a fun weekend visiting with a few out of town guests....





Aunt Jessie came from Boston and brought Norah some precious little outfits...that actually fit this tiny peanut! We watched Stephan's soccer game and had lunch with Gramps, Jude and Nic in the Third Ward.




Family walks--one of our favorite ways to spend time together is walking. This is the main street in our neighborhood where we walk to the grocery store, ice cream shop, to get coffee or to rent movies. And now that I am on leave, Norah and I can walk Stephan to school, which is two blocks from our house. Norah is a big hit with the 4th grade girls!


Aunt Sarah and Uncle Juan visited from Vermont. We watched a slide show of their impressive vegetable garden. Juan takes incredible photos of food. They are leaving soon to live & work in Argentina for a few months.


Aunt Shelly & Dan were in town from Chicago. Stephan is looking forward to taking the train to Chicago & spending a weekend with Shelly next month.

Brother & Sister


Stephan can't get enough of his baby sister. He loves to hold her & kiss her head all day!



Hanging out with cousin Reese



Reese was really curious about Norah & even wanted to share some of her toys!

Back to school!


Game day! Stephan has Packer fever...


It's hard to believe Stephan is already in 4th grade! He's busy practicing for his soccer team & after school flag football league.


Stephan the day before his first day of school having his favorite snack...banana bread at Starbucks. I don't know their secret ingredient, but he would eat it daily if he could. When the baristas see him walk in the door, they are two steps ahead of us with the bread ready to go!

A few random pics of Norah

Our first days at home with Norah


One of my favorite photos! Stephan so sweet & loving with his sister. (and a big help!) You can see how much Norah looks like Stephan did as a baby.
