1 Year Old!

Norah is 1 year old! This is very relieving for Hailey because it is difficult for a 4 year old to understand that 'yes, 11months old is younger than 4 years old'. It is also apparently great for Norah because she has decided to do a million new things the last 2 weeks since she has turned 1 year old. Norah can find her tummy and her nose, she can give kisses and hugs (and LOVES to oblige), she can say uh-oh, baby, Dada and papa and if you are really listening you might hear 'all done, mama and sissy'. She can sign 'all done, more, milk, swing and baby'. She also understands when you ask her a few questions like 'do you want to go outside?' and 'can you find your baby?' and she LOVES to play peek-a-boo and chasing. She is walking like a champ and can climb up and down the stairs (with supervision of course); lately she pretty much tries to run everywhere. Norah is extremely cuddly, cute and lovable and VERY stubborn (just like her daddy). It's great when she gets mad and slowly sits on the floor, then lays back on the floor so she can kick her feet and yell (she used to throw herself down but learned quickly to control her descent or pay later). Her first year has been a flash; we just can't get enough of her! We love you peanut!
