June 21, 2009 Happy 1st Anniversary!

Wow time flies! Its hard to believe 1 year ago we were walking down the aisle saying 'I do'. This year we need a baby sitter so we can go catch a movie and dinner. How times have changed! Here's some pics of Mia and Nora relaxing and watching some TV...

New toys

Nora studying dad put her new bouncy play station together.

Nora's gone Green

.....and pink, and yellow, and blue! About a month ago we decided to give cloth diapers a try. Turns out we love them! They aren't like the one's our parents used - this new breed of diapers are super easy - the only extra effort is washing them (and hey, the washing machine is SOO much closer than walking downstairs to the trash!)

Giggle Time

This weekend while Ryan and his dad were golfing I was reading to Nora her favorite book "Peek - a - who" and she began laughing for the first time!

New things Nora likes to do

Going to the beach with Mom and Dad.


Sleeping all night long - She started doing this on Memorial Day.


Sitting in her Bumbo. Yes - those are Budweiser booties. They were Ryan's when he was a baby.


Having lunch at the beach at Poseidon Restaurant in Del Mar.

Catch-up

I can't believe Nora is 2 months old already! She has grown and changed so much since we brought her home. She now smiles, coo's, and stares in amazement at her mommy and daddy! Below are some pictures from the last 8 weeks....

OK Nora just starting fussing - stay tuned for the pics!

Update - ok, so my goal is to post at least one week per day...so i should be caught up in a week or so. enjoy!

Week 8

I learned to roll over this week!


I love bathtime!
