Happy 9 Month's!

Nora Bear turned 9 months old yesterday! At her checkup today, she weighed 16lbs and measured 27 inches .She's in about the 15-20 percentile for her age.

This little girl is on the go - she turned the corner a few weeks ago and now crawls everywhere and still loves to pull herself up to standing. She's been brave a few times and let go so that she could stand on her own.

She still loves to eat. In fact, she grabbed Daddy's tortilla right out of his hand tonight after she had already eaten a slice of turkey, 1/2 a piece of bread, and a baby-food pouch.

She babbles a lot more (still the bs, ds and ms) and loves to make "mmmmm" sounds while she eats.

She's still sweet as can be but has us all wrapped around her little finger. I mean, tell me, who can resist this little bear's smile?

Happy new year!!

Goodness, it's already 2025! It's been a really long time since we posted!  We had a very lazy new year. We flew back from LA on the evening of the 31st so spent the last remaining hours of 2024 cozying up on the couch and then fell asleep before it even hit midnight! On New Years day, we slept in, cleaned up the house and then did a quick hike the next day. All in all, a good start to the year! Nora's new blanket hoodie. Cold and muddy trails. We're not in LA anymore! We hiked the Primrose trail that follows Coal Creek.  

1 week checkup

We took Nora to her one week check up today and guess what? We have a porker on our hands! She weighed in at a whopping 6 lbs. 5.5 oz. That's 2.5 oz more than her birth weight! They want the baby to be back at birth weight within 2 weeks so she beat that milestone pretty handily. Hooray! So far, she's been better than Evie at eating (she doesn't take nearly as long, although she falls asleep VERY often) but she's not as good as Evie at pooping. Poor thing always seems to have tummy issues - she's very squirmy and fussy when she doesn't burp or poop. The doc doesn't think it's a big problem though since she still has lots of wet diapers, but we'll have to keep a better eye on it now. We'll have another doctor check up (with shots!) next week.

black and blue

Poor little Nora! This little munchkin was running after her sister when we were out on a walk yesterday and tripped. She banged her face up pretty good, but thankfully it wasn't worse.  A big ole egg! she didn't like me trying to clean those scratches  breakfast thus morning! Lots of jam on her face to match her war wounds!
