Happy (belated) birthday, Nora!

Happy (belated) birthday, my little Nora-bear! 

At 2 years old, Nora is a little bit mischievous but oh so lovable. It takes a while for her to warm up to someone, but when she does, she is cuddly and give great hugs and kisses. 

She loves singing the ABCs now, and can mostly count to ten and sometimes higher. She likes to scribble draw, playing with planes and trains and her current favorite book is a Children's Song book.

She still does the adorable "mmmmmm" noises when she eats something she likes, but recently she also started declaring "yummy in my tummy tummy!" Most of the time, it just comes out as "tummy tummy!" though! She love sweets and is always asking for candy and snacks, but also loves eggs (hard boiled or fried), sausage, bacon and noodles. She's still not great at sitting in her seat at the dinner table, but it's really hard to say no to that cutie pie face when shes asks to sit on your lap. Even Evie will relent and let Nora sit with her when Nora asks.

Nora loves her big sister and is often urging her on with "Come on, Eves!" Scott caught the two of them in the walk-in closet at the Orcas house last weekend given each other back scratches!

Nora is actually 2 years and 12 days old because I'm late with this post, but let's just pretend I posted on August 13th. :)

Happy new year!!

By
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.

Eating on the road

By
With all the COVID restrictions on restaurants and Scott not liking takeout service, we've gotten pretty good at planning meals for days we are out and about. We've basically taken to tailgating... a lot! It is nice though that it means having a hot meal to warm up after a day of playing in the snow and I'm not going to lie - it is also a good excuse to eat instant noodles because it is fast and easy and warming!   For overnight stays, we end up doing instant pot meals like one-pot spaghetti or chili, or easy meals like a cheese plate or sandwiches. It does save on $ so that's definitely nice but man, I can't wait to go out to restaurants again! Beef and barley soup lunch at Mt Baker. Chillin' with Chili at Crystal Mountain. Beautiful but cold picnic in Wenatchee Little girl loving her hot ramen over Blewitt Pass Jook after sledding at Crystale Springs Chicken Noodle Soup in the snow at Salmon Ridge. Pho bowls under the ferry awning at Diablo Lake.

Glass art

We picked up our finished creations from the glass blowing class we took a few weeks ago and I think they came out great! Can you tell who made which one? Nora's sunset pumpkin, May's bluebird and Evie's snow pumpkin.
