Milestone Pictures, Nora

EIGHT MONTHS | MILESTONE PICTURES

EIGHT MONTHS | MILESTONE PICTURES

Nora is already eight months old!! It’s unreal, honestly. I can feel 12 months creeping up and it makes me super sad. I just want her to stay little a little bit longer. 🥲

This month Nora:

  • Tried lots of new foods: peanut butter, toast, bagel, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, granola, pizza, chicken enchiladas, quesadilla, fries, ice cream, guacamole, rice, spaghetti, eggs, sausage, peppers, pears, Mac and cheese, waffle, steak.
  • Is army crawling everywhere and is pretty dang fast at it too! Especially if she’s motivated by something to get to, she can cruise!
  • Started saying “hi”
  • Is getting on her knees more and more!
  • Loves sleeping on her tummy just like her brothers!
  • Is a little copy-cat and mimics sounds and movements!
  • LOVES her big brothers so much. She thinks everything they do is so funny and could watch them all day. They love her so much too and it’s the sweetest. Everett is her biggest fan and Clyde wants us to think he’s wrapped up in his own world but then LIGHTS up when she smiles at him or “makes him laugh!”
  • Started using the Jolly Jumper and she is a huge fan! The boys love to try and jump with her and it’s just really cute!

This month we:

  • Celebrated mama turning 28! Basically 30. 🫠 The boys sang to me and were so sweet suprising me with balloons and pictures they drew! Caden made me breakfast, painted my nails, and took me to a movie and dinner. It was a perfect day with my favorite people!
  • Met our cute new friend Bentley! She’s so sweet and so tiny next to Nora, it’s crazy!
  • Celebrated the end of pumping! Wahoo! Haha. It’s been a journey for sure but I’m happy to be done.
  • The kids partied with dad for a weekend while mom went on a girls trip with my friends I met while living in China! This was my first time away from the kids without Caden AND the longest I’ve ever been away from Caden or my kids (3 nights) but it was SO much fun and so needed to reset. We’re thinking it needs to be a new tradition for sure! We went to Waco & Austin Texas and laughed til we cried!

Here’s this month in pictures..

Clyde has absolutely LOVED his first year of preschool. He has made such cute friends, adores his teachers and is always eager to show us all of the things he brings home in his backpack! 😊 He has grown and learned so much and we’re constantly amazed with what he knows. 

So proud of you sweet Clyde! You are so loved. ❤️

My sweet Everett. 💗⁣ ⁣ He’s officially 2. My sweet Everett. 💗⁣
⁣
He’s officially 2.5. 🥲 So here’s some things I want to remember about him right now. ⁣
⁣
He is potty trained and did SO good with it. ⁣
⁣
He says the sweetest prayers that always start with “I love my mom” and it melts me.⁣
⁣
He loves to put on “tea time” for whoever is around or his little stuffie friends. ⁣
⁣
Tells me “Okay sir!!” with a salute more often that I’d like to admit. 🫡😂⁣
⁣
Is the sweetest brother and always checks on anyone who is sad. He loves “my Clyder Jameson” and “my Nor Nor” so much. ⁣
⁣
He is TOUGH and loves to “tussle” and dive head first off of the couch. 😅⁣
⁣
Is desperate to start school and loves going to “his school” at the library for story time. 🥹⁣
⁣
He is CONSTANTLY in character of one of his “friends” aka toy story characters or super heroes. ⁣
⁣
He’s talking up a storm and it’s so fun to get to hear all about what’s important to him, how he’s feeling, and all the details of life from his point of view. ⁣
⁣
I’ve never met someone so strong and so tender at the same time. He is the sweetest little boy who is growing up much too fast and I just love him so much. 💗
Started Easter off yesterday morning with our trad Started Easter off yesterday morning with our traditional resurrection rolls and video and loved having that teaching moment with the boys. 💗 Then, we dyed eggs together and had a fun Easter lunch with cousins! ⁣
⁣
Today, we had a little egg hunt at home, heard Clyder sing at church, and then spent the rest of the day with family having traditional meals and fun outside in the sunshine. ☀️ ⁣
⁣
No words can describe the happiness I feel knowing that because He lives again so can we. 💗 Happy Easter from our family to yours!
Happy Easter 💗 Happy Easter 💗
