Roll around much?

She finally has enough hair that it can be messy after a night's sleep.

Really messy.

I've never seen this girl's hair have so much volume.

There's no way she could be any sweeter.

Take me to your leader.

I love taking baths and showers with Nora. I've done it since she was little. It's just our time together, time where she happens to sit in one spot for more than 30 seconds. Now that she's down to only a morning bottle I don't get a lot of snuggle time. It makes me sad. I hope it's something she'll grow in to as she gets older. I want more hugs and loves.

Silly girl loves the scrublets from my face wash. Half the time she sucks on them like binkis. She makes a pretty cute alien, right?

 

Oh and in case anyone was wondering, it's never a good idea to "clean up" your lady parts where your baby might be watching. They never forget and love to mimic.

Even a capped razor is a little disconcerting.

Proud Mama

Remind you of anything?

I'm proud as a peacock to be this little girl's mama.

How we spend our Friday nights.

blues.

Alright, maybe now that my blog isn't so ugly I might actually want to spend time here.

Winter was fun for awhile. For like a month. Back in December. It's just not fun anymore.

It pretty much sucks and has me thinking bad about every aspect of my life.

My business, my blog, my life. Seriously, sometimes I just think, wow I'm a huge loser. And then I have to remind myself what an important thing it is I'm doing. I'm sure Heavenly Father doesn't think anything is more important than raising our babies. Stupid winter, it's what it does to me.

There was this one day, we were literally so bored, I gave Nora this pan of rice and just let her play in it.

Uh, what was I thinking?

I think I'm still vacuuming up rice to this day.

But she loved it. And it kept her mind and body occupied for a little bit.

One day I found Nora under the stairs in her play area like this. She fit perfectly in the little table pouch and played there for quite some time.

We have done some fun things too. Nora loves going to the aquarium and seeing all the "ish".

Yes, my 15 month old still fits in her Bjorn. I'm so glad I invested the money in one of these. Such a life saver.

Nora's 15 month stats for anyone that cares:

Weight. 17lbs8oz - Still in the first percentile but at least she hasn't fallen off the charts.

Height. 30.5in - Fifty third percentile in height. She's a model if yanno what I mean.

Head. 45.5cm - Thirty ninth percentile. She has to have somewhere to put her big brain.

She really is so smart. She says close to 50 words now. She loves animals and crackers. And animal crackers. She still has barely enough hair to put in a ponytail, but it's as fine as spun gold and I adore it. I'm not sure I could ever have another baby because there wouldn't be enough love to go around.
