Nora: Twelve Months

It happens so fast . . . she's going to be one year old on Friday. I'm pretty sure she was just this little squishy black-haired baby yesterday.

Nora is full of energy and loves exploring. She had so much fun at her birthday party last weekend (pictures coming soon). She dug into her cake like a pro. ;) This month Nora has been caught standing on her own for a few seconds, has learned that pictures in books can connect to objects in real life, eats as much as she can, doesn't sleep as much as Mama would like, and tries her best to keep up with her siblings. She says five words: Mama, Dada, doggie, bye-bye, and uh-oh. She does not like being buckled in to anything and keeps trying to stand up in the bath tub. She has just moved up to size 12-18 month clothes and is wearing size 3 diapers. She is still nursing 4-5 times a day and Mama hopes she will keep nursing for another six months or so; I'll let her decide when she's ready. In the meantime I appreciate being able to eat the extra calories and still keep the weigh off, ha! We love this sweet, bubbly little girl and are so thankful to God for her!
