Fun Pix of the Kids

Auntie Stevie from California giving Norah a bottle at the pool party the night before her baptism.

Uncle Adam with Faith at the hot tub.

Cutie Pie Norah. She'd just rolled onto her tummy from her back. Play by play action below.

"What, Mom?"

"Ah! I did it!"

"I'm rolling over now! Watch!"

Faith and Gracia have their maiden voyage on the canoe with Dad.

Taking off from shore.

Boarding the canoe. Faith is sitting above and Gracia is standing.

Visiting Grandpa Lloyd at St. Mary's in Rochester. Grandpa was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer mid-June.

Uncle Adam and Norah having a cuddle.

Norah, gazing into her Uncle Adam's eyes. Adam adores his nieces. And LOVES BABIES!

Norah poses just like Grandpa Lloyd and Grandma Linda when they are "disgusted." Norah, however, is not disgusted, and just resting. But it was cute.

Mommy couldn't help herself! She just wanted to see if Norah liked a little rice cereal from a spoon. She did! But that little immature tongue thrust makes swallowing difficult. We'll wait a while before this is a regular practice.

Mommy HAD to use the bathroom at Kwik Trip in Rochester, and we were alone, so fortunately, there was a a little baby seat. Norah looked so darn cute sitting there, I snapped a picture from the "throne."

Grandma GG gets a little time to feed Norah with a bottle.

Not a good photo, but a sweet moment. Grandpa Dave was singing a quiet little song in Norah's ear and she was listening so intently.

Grandpa had a window ledge in his room that Faith found was a good perch.

BIG GRANDPA, little great-granddaughter
