Six Months Old!

We have loads of holiday/Austin updates (yes, we're still here), but first things first....

Norah is six months old! Cousin Megan lent us her furry purple chair for the occasion. She's hit some major milestones this month (and most within the last week), including manic rolling, sitting on her own, rocking, army crawling, and pulling herself up into the sitting position (video of that one to follow soon).

She is all personality. She spends most of her day laughing and smiling, but can furrow her brow like no other when she's frustrated. Sleep continues to elude us all, but we can't be too cross with her because she's so darn cute when she's awake.

Here is a quick list of things she is loving lately: books, avocado, bath time, rolling over, Sophie the $24 Giraffe, her new Curious George, sweet potatoes, her dad, the mobile over her changing table, the exersaucer, pulling hair, trying to crawl, playing peek-a-boo, playing airplane, the 'tick tock' song, other babies, spoons, remotes, and shoving everything and anything into her mouth.

Here is a quick list of things she is hating lately: napping and sleeping through the night.

She is the sweetest, funniest, and most endearing kid we know. I feel so very lucky to be her mom.





In the past week or so I think the thing I have been dreading most has become a reality--Norah is teething. I expect to not get a good night's sleep until 2012.
