Fabulous Fathers, Flipsy Flopsies & Food






Hello, All! June 21st not only marked the first day of Summer; it was also Daddy's first Father's Day. The day began with a great gift for both Mommy and Daddy: Norah slept until 8:00 a.m. ! D & J were very happy to get the extra sleep, and even had to wake Norah up to have breakfast.

After some coffee and some card-opening and gift-giving (Norah got Daddy the oh-so-traditional-gift of a tie :-), Dan went off to practice his new hobby, fly-fishing, whilst Mommy and Norah cleaned the house up and went grocery shopping.

The day was capped off by Chinese food and cuddles with Grandma and Grandpa. All said and done, Daddy had a wonderful first Father's Day.

This week has seen even more action out of our sweet little girl A few weeks back, J and Grandma went to Babies R Us to purchase a Jump and Go. At first, Norah wanted nothing to do with it. But, as time has moved on, Ms. Norah Belle is just B-Boppin' around and havin' fun in her new toy. Check out the video for all of the action.

We have also begun to try to feed Norah solids this week. Let's just say that the foreign feel of a spoon compared to the comforting, familiar feel of a bottle has proven to be a little too much for our little one. She has spent more time grabbing the spoon and spitting the rice cereal out than actually consuming the stuff. What can we say, we wouldn't really like the taste and consistency of 'gruel' either! :-) But, we're getting there.

That's all for now. We're coming up on some very big travels to Indy, North Carolina and New York, so stay-tuned for more updates. Enjoy the pictures.

Hope you're all well.
Love,
D&J

Ok little miss Norah is growing WAY too fast. Didn't you tell her she is not allowed to grow up. Especially when the godmomma is not there to see it:( Well the deck will be going up soon so you will all have to come visit.
