One-on-One time

Evie and Daddy went on a Daddy-Daughter overnight boat camping trip, so Saturday night was all about Mommy and Nora! It was a pretty mellow day - we did a little bit of shopping and a lot of playing. This was the first time that I can think of where I had so many hours with Nora all to myself without having to rush to do something like get dinner on the table for everyone or having to get back online to do more work and you know what? It was a lot of fun! Nora is at such a fun age where she's so expressive and loves to giggle and clap her hands and explore. It made me feel a little sad that Nora doesn't have our full attention like Evie had when she was this age. Poor second child. Anyway, we vowed we'd do more of these one-on-one times with each girl because it got us all recharged!

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.

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!
