Walking.....

I haven't posted for awhile, but that doesn't mean there hasn't been a lot going on. Life has been absolutely crazy. Lucy is funny as ever. She and Nate do knock-knock jokes all the time now. They have a series of cow jokes. My favorite is "Tiny Cow", when you ask "Tiny Cow Who?" she moos in this really high pitch. We think it's hilarious!

Norah babbles a lot, she says mom, dada, boo (for peek a boo) and then just random mumbles. She smiles and laughs constantly. One of my favorite parts of the day is in the morning when Lucy and Norah listen to the Tangled soundtrack in the car and Lucy sings and they hold hands in the back seat. It is precious.

Today is Nate's birthday and Norah gave him the best birthday gift ever. She started to walk a little bit. She took about 3 or 4 steps without assistance. That is the farthest she's gone so far. Woo Hoo Norah!

A Little Bit of Everything

Last night Nate and I and the girls went to the school. Lucy and I helped Nate de-post-it his office. On a break from ripping post-its from the wall, Lucy found a train whistle and proceeded to start her own one-man marching band. Pretty funny! Norah spent time crawling around the band room (real clean I know). I had to spend the weekend away in OKC for continuing education. It was great to see good friends from optometry school, but I really missed Nate and the girls. It was great to just spend time with them yesterday.

Tonight Norah almost stood up on her own in the middle of the floor. She was in the laundry room and started to push up to a standing position, she was about half way up before she realized what she was doing and sat back down. We're getting closer to walking, she'll get there eventually:) Norah's babbling a lot, and last night she threw a shirt over her head, pulled it off, and said "a-boo". Pretty sure she meant peek-a-boo.

Lucy cracked me up tonight with another one of her oneliners, she was watching the ipad with me and it ran out of battery. Nate grabbed us the lap top so we could finish watching her show, she looked back at me and said "Mommy, I think this is a great idea" (starting the show on the laptop, that is). She's full of it. She also loves calling people by someone else's name. Usually she's calling Nate or I Grandma Deb or Grandma Lois. She thinks it's hilarious!
