Pumpkin Picking

Well actually I brought my own! We had a fun day with Aunt Erin, Brendan, Gavin and Aaden!

Cousin Emma has arrived!!

I am so excited about my new 'niece' Emma! John, Nora and I all got to visit her in the hospital, as well as her proud parents Kim and Jon, and grandparents Nanci and Stan. I am so happy that we got a picture of Nora and Emma's first meeting. Now we can start scheduling playdates for Nora, Emma and Aaden!

Congratulations Andersens and Omlands! Can't wait to see tons of pictures!

Nora is ONE month old!

Nora is now a whole month old! I can't believe it... but she is getting bigger every day. She is now 9 pounds 1 ounce and 22 3/4 inches long. She is in the 50th percentile for weight and 95th percentile for height - so she is long and lean according to the doctor! But she is gaining weight nicely - she gained a little over a pound since her last visit.

She is now searching feverishly for her thumb.. it is so cute to see her try to suck on her hand.. I wonder if she will be a thumb sucker! For now the pacifier will do. (Although that's a no-no according to the doctor.. shh don't tell!).

I took her one month pictures today, even though she's technically one month plus one day. We didn't have time yesterday and I don't think she was in the mood... close enough though! I'll take her picture every month with the elephant so we can see how quickly she grows.
