Face

Nora has been blessed with her Momma's face.  This is a face that shows every emotion she has, good, bad and ugly.  There is no mystery regarding Nora's feelings about a situation or toy, etc.  As her Momma, I have struggled with this affliction for my entire life.  On the up side- I'm a terrible liar and secret keeper, which when turned around and bestowed upon my child, should work to my advantage overall. 

First Day of Daycare

Nora started at SoulShine today. I'm very nervous. Lucy had Ms. Bobbie who loved her like a Grandbaby so this is our first foray into daycare. It's not a huge place which is nice and everyone I've met has been very nice, but with her harness  Nora is a temporary special needs baby and I stressed all day. She was fine though. She only took three very short naps so she was pretty zonked when she got home but I did get some whole-face smiles and coos. Her cooing conversations are the best. She has such a gentle way about her. I imagine though, that underneath the gentle coos and sweet smiles is a little lady as tough as nails. 

Saturday Snuggles

This is the aftermath of my first week back at work. Wes was off Monday and Tuesday so Nora was home with him then Mimsy came and stayed three days.  Work was crazy and a bit disorienting after twelve weeks of no set schedule but knowing that Nora was in loving hands made it so much easier. It would have been a breeze if she'd continued to sleep through the night like she'd been doing for weeks prior, but no, it was not to be. Hopefully, once we've settled into a routine she will go back to her 9p-5a sleeping schedule. It was glorious. 

Playtime!
