Double Trouble on the first day of school!

Cutie Pie Norah

We got to spend some time with Grandma Gerry, who just moved into a beautiful residential group home over the weekend. Norah took an interest in Grandma's earrings and glasses, but was a little too wiggly for Grandma to keep on her lap too long.

I just don't have enough pictures of Norah in her diaper. She was sitting on the floor playing with her toys and Norah is a petite baby with such a cute little posture, I couldn't resist a few snapshots.

Such a DOLL!

The Great Minnesota Get-Together (A.K.A. MN State Fair)

Norah's first State Fair...she was a dream baby...like she is everyday of her life! Most of the photos I got of her are with her sucking her thumb. She was so content all day. I think she enjoyed being outside seeing so many new things and people, colors, smells, and sounds.

Norah's a little mad here...she doesn't like wearing her sunhat. Gracia, on the other hand, loves her hat, and Faith seems to wish she had one, looking into the sun!

Gracia could NOT WAIT to get to "Little Farm Hands" at the Fair...her favorite stop.

Probably this is the last year the girls are able to ride the mini-tractors. Aawww :(

Cute!

It was a great day! And so far, no H1N1 at our house! Knock on wood! (But I did diagnose a probable H1N1 today in a 15 year old dismissed from the Fair Sunday with other 4H'ers.)
