Nora at 6 Months

Nora was 6 months old at the end of February. I guess since it wasn't a leap year she was 6 months on the 28th. To ring in her 6 month birthday she had RSV. Thankfully we caught it early and after a few weeks of breathing treatments she's back to her normal self. For her 6 month pictures I took them in my baptismal gown. Ellis wore the gown for her baby dedication but for Nora the baby dedication keeps getting pushed back because of weather. I wanted to get her picture in it in case she outgrows it.

Nora, here are some fun things about you at 6 months:

  • You weigh 12 lb 13oz but lost a little weight and were 12 lb 9 oz at your 6 month check up due to RSV
  • You are 25 inches long
  • You like to giggle at your big sister
  • You are wearing 3-6 month clothes
  • You have gotten into a good habit of going to bed around 7pm. You still wake up at least once a night to nurse.
  • During the day you nurse every 2.5-3 hours
  • You have a favorite little doll that you slobber all over
  • You can roll from your back to tummy and tummy to back
  • You started rice cereal and aren't quite sure about it. I'm sure you'll like it sooner or later.


 She's starting to get too big for the basket

 Someday I'll pull this out as proof that they really do love each other



Our bright eyed girl

Nora,
You have the sweetest personality and love to smile at everyone around you. You are such a happy baby and easy going, unless you're hungry or tired. We love watching you grow and seeing all of the things you're learning. We love you!
Love,
Mommy & Daddy

Nora at 4 & 5 months

After a couple months hiatus I'm back on the blog! I think the saying is "Technology is great...when it works" or something like that. Our computer has been having difficulties the last couple of months and finally bit the dust. We haven't gotten a new one yet so I've finally decided to use my work computer to catch up on blog posts. Little Miss Nora was 6 months old at the end of February so I thought it'd be fitting to post pictures of her at 4 & 5 months, ha. I'll put a 6 month post up but need to take some pictures of her first. She's had RSV, so didn't feel up to taking pictures on her 1/2 birthday. Hopefully she'll be in a great mood after her nap this afternoon so we can get a few taken. Enjoy the pictures!

Always happy

Look how long I am!
