A Busy Busy Month

Hey everyone! Sorry it has been so long since our last post.  Norah has been sooo much fun lately.  Her personality is definitely coming out.  She is trying to skip the whole crawling thing and trying her hardest to WALK.  We are so blessed to have her as an addition to our family this Christmas and can't believe she wasn't with us yet last year.  It has been a really great 8 months with her around.  Here are just a few silly pictures of things she has been up to lately.

Chewing on a strawberry bagel. YUM YUM.  I think it feels good on the gums.

We had a Christmas party at our house with the Marlink family, Aunt Jen, Uncle Tim, Cousin Liam, Grandpa and Grandma H.

Oh I just LOVE my baby.  I love giving her hugs, kisses, and Pats on the back.  What a good little mommy.

Ah yes and of course my very first bow in my hair.  Still looks  a little silly but hey its a bow in her hair it is a very good start.

We hope everyone has a safe and Merry Christmas.

Happy Thanksgiving

This post is a little belated, Norah's first Thanksgiving was a fun, busy day.  We went to Grandpa and Grandma Johnson's for the big turkey dinner.  Norah and her cousin Isaac played with toys together on the floor the whole time we ate lunch.  She wasn't to interested in eating at the moment.  Later we went to Grandpa and Grandma Huyser's house with the DeWitt family and Great Grandpa and Grandma Huyser.  Norah had fun playing with everyone there.  Later that day Norah got really fussy and nothing we did could seem to calm her down.  Finally at 3 A.M. Friday morning we decided to bring her in to prime care.  Something was definitely  wrong with her.  We have never had a night this bad.  I got to prime care with her and found out it would be at least 4 hours before they could see us.  So I then took sleepy Norah and sleepy mom back home.  The next morning I called Norah's pediatrician they got her in right away.  Anyway we found out Norah had the begining  of an ear infection, on top of cutting teeth.  So here we are a few days later, and thankful to report Norah seems to be feeling back to her normal happy self.
