And They Call It, PUPPY LOVE.....

No words can describe this. It is just too freakin' cute.

Our Little Fashionista

Ever wake up in the morning and think to yourself: "Hmmmmmm, what shall I wear? The pants and cute shirt or the sundress?" This, as you can see, is not a problem for Ms. Norah. Dan said she kind of looks like and Olsen Twin. I tend to agree. Ahhhhhh....our little fashionista. :-)

Two is Twice as Nice

The past 21 months have been all about The Weber's Big Adventure with their wonderful daughter, Norah Lee. It's time now, however, to dedicate an entire post to the newest addition to the Weber Clan-the Wee'est Weber, if you will. And, Dan and J are proud to announce that newest Weber will be a strong, beautiful BABY GIRL!!!!!!!!! We-are-thrilled! Having two little girls running around is going to be one crazy, hectic, exciting roller-coaster ride of fun.

Baby-Girl Weber looks great. The ultrasound revealed that she's right on track as far as growth and function is concerned and that the tentative due date of March 10th 2011 is right on the money. Wee'est Weber has also begun to flex her little muscles and stretch around in utero. She has been pokin' around for a couple of weeks and even gave Mamma a good, swift jab last week. J LOVES, LOVES, LOVES the fetal motion, so having her newest little girl give her a hearty "Howdy" kicks has been wonderful!

We just cannot wait to meet this new miracle in our lives. March will be here before we know it. Until then, we'll be kept busy choosing a name, decorating the nursery (we've decided on a butterfly theme) and picking out ultra cute clothes for our princess.

We'll keep you posted.

Much love,
D, J, Norah and Baby Girl Weber

A Halloween Ho-Down!

We've finally arrived at the end of October on The Weber's Journey Through Fall, and what would that journey be like without regaling our readers with stories of spooky specters and ghoulish goblins on Halloween Night? Okay, so Norah is still a little too young to be pounding the pavement for candy on Beggar's Night, but that didn't stop the Webers from having a great Halloween weekend.

Norah's Halloween journey began on the Friday before Beggar's Night with a costume party at her new day-care center, A World of Love. What a blast! The social room of the center was filled with some of the cutest kids donning some of the most creative and precious costumes you've ever laid eyes on. There were lions, ducklings, garden gnomes ( an EXTREMELY popular choice this season) and dragons galore. But, there was only one, unique, beautiful Jessie the Cowgirl from the 'Toy Story' series!!!! Last year, Norah was a prancing pachyderm; this year, she was a clippity-cloppity cowgirl!!!!!

In addition to being able to visit with all of her little friends, there were tons of games that Norah got to partake in (and prizes to boot!). Although, Norah was a bit stuffy-nosed and overwhelmed with the crowd, she had a good time (as did Mommy and Daddy).

Norah loved her costume so much that she insisted on putting it right back on the following morning.....and then going downstairs and watching 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer'! Mommy had to chuckle at the comedy of it all. She even considered putting on "Jingle Bells" while they carved the Jack-O-Lantern later that evening. Alas! The infatuation with the costume was just a very short-lived faze, for Norah decided to don a 'Little Swimmers' swimming diaper...and nothing else....for the pumpkin carving (We're all about self-expression in the Weber Household, and our little girl is one creative little tyke! :-)

After the pumpkin was carved, it was right back into our Jessie outfit so that we could parade our little trick-or-treater around Grandma and Poppy's house. After a playing over there, and a quick stop off at Norah's old sitter, Kathy's, house, it was back home to enjoy some pizza, more 'Rudolph', a bath and greeting trick-or-treaters at The Weber Inn.

Although she had a great time again this year, we're looking forward to NEXT year when Norah will be old enough to really go door to door. And, she'll have a little sibling to tag along for all fun!

One Lady Leaping....Into LEAVES!!!!!!!!!!

A few weeks back, J and Norah returned home to find Daddy blowing leaves into a pile in the backyard. Mommy found this rather curious since Daddy usually takes care of the leaves in the yard on the weekends, and it was 6:00 on a random Wednesday. When J asked D why he was blowing leaves in the middle of the week, D responded by jumping into the big pile and exclaiming: "Because I wanted Belle to be able to PLAAAAAYYYY in them!" And, play she did. Ahhhhh.....Fall in the Midwest. Enjoy!

Returning to the Scene of the Crime

You all remember that terrible occasion. You know you do. It is one of those rare events, not unlike Pearl Harbor or the JFK assassination, that occurs and is permanently etched in the memories of anyone who witnessed and/or heard about it. It was an infamous event. It was an historical event. It was.....THE GREAT LLAMA SPITTING INCIDENT OF 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those of you who need your memories refreshed (as some of you have no doubt pushed this terrible day back into the murky recesses of your minds in the hopes of forgetting it forever: D & J took then 10-month old Norah to Windmill Farms for a fun-filled day of romping about the pumpkins and visiting with all of the farm animals. And, we were doing just that....until we got to the llama pen, that is.

J was wearing Norah in the baby-sling so that the WeeOne could get up close and personal with all of her new furry and feathered friends when she got just a teensy bit too close to a rather perturbed Peruvian playmate. As the llama slowly crept closer and closer to Norah, J noticed its ears laying back and its cheeks puffing up. Just before she moved herself and her precious daughter back, this llama hocked up a spit-wad and launched it directly into Ms. Norah's beautiful little face! J & D were shocked. Norah was positively terrified, and the llama marched away victorious. Llama=1. Webers=0.

Not to be deterred from the prospect of sweet revenge, the Webers returned to Windmill farms a couple of weeks ago. Only this time, we returned a year older, wiser, and MUCH MORE MOBILE!

As it turns out, Norah didn't even get a chance to dodge llama loogies as the offensive creature was more interested in laying down in its pen, and Norah was more interested in all of the wooden trains, castles, and tractors that she was exploring.

No. That llama may not have gotten its comeuppance this year, but Norah is working on her bobbing and weaving, and will be READY, when the time comes, for round 2!

Ding. Ding.
