Norah :: 7 Months

Oh Norah. What more can I say about our little ball of joy. She gets more personality by the day. I never knew how much of a curious/hyper/active/social baby she was until I have seen her around other babies this last month. She usually wants to dive out of my arms to get to them. Same goes for kids. She sees a group of kids playing and she is does anything she can to be on the ground playing right along with them. 


Norah in a nutshell::

-We had her first hair cut by mimi (my mom) yesterday because Broc has been complaining about her awesome wispy wings.
-Current stats from the dr. yesterday are 18 lb. 15 oz. (84 percentile) 27 in (74 percentile) and healthy as a horse. 
-She crawls EVERYWHERE! Even up stairs! We have to keep one eye on her at all times or she really will get lost. 
-She will pull herself up and stand on anything possible which usually means she gets about 3-4 bumps to the face daily. She is a tough little cookie. 
-She has recently been more interested in the TV which at this age, I look at as a great thing! I get a little bit of a break from entertaining her (which with her busy mind is not easy).
-She is phasing out of the "stranger danger" stage.
-She absolutely loves water! Pool, shower, bathtub, sink, hose, you name it. 
-She loves shoulder rides on Broc and plays his head like a drum while she rides. It is great.
-She loves animals! Especially the Arnolds dog, Piper. 
-Little stinker still thinks that her bed time is 10:30 p.m.
-Norah can pick up tiny cheerios with her chubby fingers now and put them in her mouth. Sometimes it takes the whole hand to shove them in there, but she is sure coordinated. 
-Lately she has been in a gasping stage. Anything that excites her, "GASP!!!"
-She is getting quite the sun tan even though she gets drowned in sun screen every day. Her arm and leg rolls are white in the creases and brown in between. Starting to look like real dinner rolls. 
-She has two tiny teeth breaking the surface of her gummy smile. It really makes her look so grown up. 
-She still loves to look at herself in the mirror. I wonder if she realizes it is her yet. I heard that babies don't realize it is them until about a year old but I think she knew pretty early on. 
-She is so ticklish! And seriously has the cutest laugh on this planet.

Oh she is just perfect in every way. We could not be more blessed. Love you to the moon Norah Mae.
