Play Dates

Nora is quite the social bug when it comes to friends. She has been having play dates with several other little kids.  Of course she has bi-weekly play dates with cousin Hunter, but this time it was with Nolan & Kason.  Nolan is 7 days older than Nora (born on my due date with Nora) and Kason is 3 days younger than Nora.   It's so much fun to watch them interact with each other.  You can definitely tell they are boys! They wanted the balls, and were all over the place. They also seemed a little more chill as far as temperament goes.  Developmentally they were all a little different as well. Little Kason, who is in the 2-3% tile for length is already walking/running! Nora & Nolan are both in the 80-90% tile in length and not walking yet. Nora is more vocal (look who her momma is!), but the boys understand how to get what they want too.  Here are some pictures from the evening. 

Nolan in the middle, Kason on the right...both cute as can be!

They all "drove" the cart around the living room.

Love these facial expressions!

Nora has also had play dates with kids from church & the neighborhood. She loves playing with other kids-we should get her a onsie that says "plays well with others"! Hah!

2 Months!

Somebody is a big girl today! Nora is 2 months old and growing so fast. She has her 2 month check up and first round of shots on Monday-not really looking forward to the shots, but I don't mind the check up part. She has been sleeping at least 8-9 hours/night in her crib since 1 month, but has recently clocked in a few 11-12 hour nights! I can get a lot done in those hours she's sleeping sound in her crib. She is very social cooing and babbling on, staring at us and smiling all the time. She is a great baby.

Today she had a date with Noah for lunch-Rach was in town for a short while and we met up for lunch at Noodle n Company-delicious I must say. Noah & Nora had all kinds of looks, it was like people had never seen two babies around the same age before. They were both so good and didn't have a problem while we had 2 hours of adult time!

Here are a few pictures (I can never decide which to post-they are all so adorable):

Nora meets Noah!

Rachael, Brad & Noah were in town for Easter so they & Ellen came over Monday so we could all see each other & the babies! It was fun to catch up, see El's growing belly and watch Nora & Noah have their first play date.

I have to say that after changing Nora's diaper for 6 weeks it was weird changing Noah's diaper! He is a rather big boy wearing #2 diapers and Nora just got out of newborns so the shear size of the diaper seemed huge! Not to mention other parts Nora doesn't have that might have sprayed all over the wall-El was fast though.

A handsome little man he is & so precious to see them interact with each other. I must say we were both blessed with happy, easy going babies!

Best friends already!

Come back and play anytime Noah!
