Gender Party

As some of you may know, we are big fans of the Gender Party. This one was vastly different from our last one (where there were zero children). We decided to have this one at one of Nori's favorite places, Charlotte Aquatics, where she takes swim classes. We had the great pleasure to find out with friends and family the results of our ultrasound. Scroll down for the news... We are going to have a BOY!!!

Girls being girls

Nori just loves to dress up in party dresses, bracelets, rings, hats... you name it. The outfit must always be topped off with the perfect clutch or bag. We were invited to a princess party that asked the mommies to dress up too, this is what Nori thought I should wear. It was worth it too, just seeing how tickled she was to have a dress up buddy. I think I see many crazy outfits in my future, all in the name of love!

Yeah Bubbles!!!

We went on a very last min trip to our favorite place in NC, Bella Luna Inn, in Black Mt... it was Nori's first time and she loved it as much as we did! Yeah! i packed so quickly that I grabbed an uncharged camera, so these are the only photos from the trip. Nori's first bath in a jetted tub and with bubbles... she would not get out, it lasted about an hour and every minute was a joy!

A visit from Grammy

A visit from Grammy held lots of fun... playing on the water table, wearing flowers in our hair, and snapping beans.

A day at the races

We took Nori to her first horse race, The Queen's Cup. We all had a great time, she loved the food , horses, and all the nice ladies in big hats!

Our Nori has found a calling

Nori loves loves loves to be outside. We went on a little trip to see our Aunt Marcia and Uncle Jim's new home site in the lovely NC mountains and she had a blast looking at rocks, digging in the dirt and then she found the stick... the big stick, and all she wanted to do from then on was hike! And yes, that is one of many wild turkeys that greeted us!

Music time

Nori was just singing to her hearts content as she played her piano... here you see her turning the page of her song book to keep up.

Nori loves her Peter Rabbit
