warning this could be a snoozer post, but i had to do a lil update on miss nora's--she has been cracking me up lately with all her new little tricks and words--i love watching them figure it all out. She is on the verge of 15 months in a couple weeks....as i am on the verge of the big 3-0...don't worry, i am not scared.

Nora's latest and greatest

-her most used nickname of the moment is noreen--kinda hideous--but we call her that all the time.

- she says tayn-too (thank you)

-when she gives a kiss she says -mmwahh

-finishes off a good swig of water with--ahhhh

-says NO! emphatically.. and shakes her head-it's so cute--even if it is said with a little spice

-starting to dance to music

-waves and says buh bye

-says wa-wa, baby, ma-ma, owie, ba-ba, --loves cats and says mmeeeow.

-plays with the little camera and says--cheese

-will back up up to sit on your lap

-gives hugs

-ask her a question and she will say --ya--

-loves to pull out her bows and hands them to me--will also try to put them on her babies.

-she still is a fan of splash time in the toilet--{shudder.....} we try to keep all the bathroom doors shut..

-fav foods are yogurt, blueberries, string cheese, goldfish, and ravioli.

oh i want to eat this girl for dinner.

some picts over the last couple o weeks......

we ask-"where is your button?" she will yank up her shirt with a big smile, and point to her belly button. love her puppy belly.

we found some glasses in the toy room the other day--we put them on nora, and she would take them off and then cry to have them back on--it was a on going cycle. We would say Oh--so smart! she was tickled. I think these are hilarious. (note--no eyes were harmed in these picts--they are clear-non prescription specs)

z wanted in on the action too...did i ever mention i love glasses--wish i needed them now and again.

In other news i just joined up with the fun of instagram--so these picts are from there--it's kinda fun business.

A couple of weeks ago we took the kids to the bean life science museum. They loved seeing everything. It was really fun--and free...coolio. We even caught the reptile show--the kids got to pet a python, turtle, and and lizard--i didn't pet any of the above--i am a little reptile phobic.

Nora had some sort of stomach flu last week and was inbarfsville--so glad that neither of us smell like throw anymore.... can't say as much about the car...or her room. At least she is back to her chipper self. "cheese"

Looking forward to finishing some projects this week, book club with some fav pals, and of course the bachelor tonight--i have liked this season--all ready been some laugh out loud moments..and Ben is a goodie. He is going to be taking his swarm of ladies to park City--my neck of the woods--any favorites yet? i am not fond of boobs mcgee girl, or that model --she is a little crazy. love the auburn headed/ best kisser girl---she is so darling...and isn't her skin amazing?

happy monday all.
