Seb lately

This sweet boy is bursting with personality.  He is such a good big brother and is always saying the cutest and funniest things.  He is TALL, wearing 4T clothes.  He knows what he wants and doesn't like it when he doesn't get it.  Right now he is into "big legos" and blocks.  He also loves Ninja Turtles and Spiderman.  Seb loves going down to "grandpa's house" to help with the chores for the animals or go in the hot tub.  He is finally binky free, now we just need to get him potty trained...We can't believe this boy will be three years old soon.

Picture overload of Nora lately

Seven months

This little lady is seven months old!  I keep telling Justin, "Don't you feel like she is growing up?"  Her little personality is starting to come out.  She babbles "mamama" and "dadada" and I like to pretend she knows what she is saying.  She loves rolling around and has started scooting forward.  I seem to be cursed with babies who will not sleep through the night, she still wakes up three times.  She is obsessed with her brother (he likes her too) and loves Milo.  She loves to nurse and still has not had a bottle.  She is pretty easy going and just takes her naps or goes to bed without any rocking or anything. Still in the 95th percentile for height, she wears a lot of 12-18 month clothes. I am in love with this sweet girl!

Justin assured me the volume was really low.

My family used to go to my grandparent's lake house in Oregon every summer since I was a baby.  We were able to go a couple of weeks ago.  It was so much fun and always brings back the best memories.  Sebastian had a blast!  The coolest thing about the house is you can't drive to it, you have to get there by boat.  So beautiful.

Four months old!

Nora is a very smiley little girl.  She loves her brother and loves to wiggle and roll over.  She hates to sit still and really hates solid food so far. 
We are having so much fun with this sweet little girl!
Four month stats: Height 97th percentile; Weight: 82nd percentile; Head: 35th percentile

Quick Update

Nora will be three months old tomorrow!  She was in the 94th percentile for height and 77th for weight at her two month appointment. Sebastian, Nora, and I are in San Diego for a few weeks and Justin is still working hard in Oklahoma.  And here is a recent picture of our little gal.  I have been lagging on taking pictures lately, I need to get some of her smiling cause she is quite the smiley baby. 

The trip to Oklahoma

 Seb cuddling Nora at the hotel.

I took these pictures from inside the car while I was nursing Nora.  We had to stop every three hours to do this...  took forever!  This is somewhere in Kansas.  Later that night we were driving into a terrible thunder storm.  I was so scared we had to turn around and drive back to a hotel.  There were tornado warnings and close to ten tornadoes near our hotel.  The closest ones were about six miles away... I have been really scared to live in Oklahoma because of the tornadoes and this experience did not help! 

Six week old Nora

 She's getting chubby! I can't catch a good smile on camera.

The Zoo and other random pictures

 Above are some random pictures of Seb.  Whenever I take picture of Nora, he wants his picture taken too.  I don't want him to feel left out!

And here are some picture of Seb at the Zoo.  We went with Justin's parents and he loved it even though he isn't smiling for any of the pictures...

He didn't want to leave the lion drinking fountain.

He did not want to sit on this statue but we waited in line to take his picture on it so we forced him.

So serious.

Measuring himself with grandma and daddy.

Wiped out on the way home... would not let go of his zoo ticket, even while asleep.

 And here are some recent pictures of Nora.  She will be four weeks old tomorrow.
