playing around...


This little girl is....demanding. She demands to have all the attention on her. She loves to lie on our legs tummy down and just bounce and look at us. This pictures shows how she smiles...she opens her mouth up and sticks her tongue out. =) Cute huh. She is so fun. Her hair looks really red in this picture. She still has redish tints in it...but I don't think she is a true red head, because when I look at her today...she has more brown looking hair.

just before bath time


Norah still loves her bath time, and loves not having her diaper on. =) Yesterday, I was playing with her on the floor and I was kissing her tummy and her face, and she let out this loud giggle!! First time i have heard it. It was so cute! I ran and got Jayme, she did it a couple more times, but not as good as the first time. I can't wait to hear that from her again and more often. It was so sweet!

another picture at the beach...


This is from when we were at South Haven a couple weeks ago...it is one of my favorite pics. of her that night. I just had to post it on here. Today was a bad day for Norah. She got her four month immunizations today. She was quite sad. Right now she is crashed on the couch....louded up on baby Tylenol! =) She now weighs 13.5lbs. and was 23.5inches long....just your average four month old. She got her Halloween outfit in the mail today!! SO CUTE!! I can't wait for Halloween. She is going to be a
princess, well she already is one...but now she will look the part too.

love the chub


Look at those adorable chubby legs. I would be so unhappy with legs like those....but they are just way too cute on a baby aren't they? She has a fat roll on her knees!!! How cute is that! I love this girl!

south haven




We love South Haven...it is a special place for us. We both love the beach, watching the sunsets. This is where Jayme proposed to me. Now we are taking our daughter there, she really liked it.
We dipped her feet in the water. Surprisingly it was not that cold! The light was so beautiful there....we enjoyed a beautiful sunset that night as a family.

playing with daddy


This is one lucky baby...she has a daddy who just adores her.

three months old


I was trying to get these really cute three month old pictures, but Norah didn' really want to cooperate...she just freezes in front of the camera. A photographer's nightmare! =) Oh well....I took about 50 pictures....and this was the best one I could get. Oh well, I still think she is cute. She was funny, she kept trying to get that little flower on her dress in her mouth....everything goes into the mouth these days. =)

bath time


She is just crazy about her bath time! She loves to kick and splash the water, and you have to be careful and keep a close eye on her....because she is so active and gets herself all crooked in the tub.

she likes the van


We now have a mini-van.....gotta great deal on it, and couldn't pass it up. We were waiting for a thunderstorm to pass over so Jayme could play softball. Norah loves to practice standing now, and was holding unto the steering wheel....it was so cute. She is just getting so big. Right at this moment she is laying on the floor just cooing at me, and smiling. =) How precious she is.
