Norah is very fond of other babies and kids, but she is especially enamored with her cousins, Megan and Trevor. She was really into Megan when she came to California in September, and became similarly infatuated with Trevor when she met him last fall. BVZ thinks it's because she likes people closer to her own size, but they are both a whole lot taller than her (and Trevor has an adult sized head), so I am not sure that's the case. Either way, she loves them and the feeling is mutual.
Megan can read her stories, which is crazy to me because it seems like just yesterday Megan was Norah sized.
She wanted so bad to keep up with them and would have played a round of kickball if her dumb 'ole baby body had let her. Within hours of being around them she was exhibiting all kinds of mad new skillz. She sat up totally on her own, rocked on all fours, and army crawled--just trying to get a hold of her cousins. Megan has delightful long blonde hair perfect for pulling, and Trevor sits patiently while she mauls his face repeatedly.
They both loved feeding her and although it probably made the whole ordeal way messier, it was also much more fun.
After a particularly messy session of sweet potatos, they got to choose Norah's new outfit. Trevor insisted she needed a hat. You can't see it in this picture, but he also insisted she wear her crocheted cowboy boot booties.
While their love and affection was undeniable, Megan did admit to me that she thought it was really unfair that Norah gets 2 cousins and they only have one and they have to SHARE. Plus, they waited a really long time for a cousin and Norah only had to wait 'like not even one day.' I told her we'd find a way to make it up to her.
