A new baby to love

My cousin Kevin & his wife, Jennifer, welcomed Norah Theresa into their lives on Sunday afternoon at 2:04pm. Norah weighed 7lbs 7oz and has a FULL head of hair! I can't wait to meet this little one...hopefully next weekend when we're in their neck of the woods. I imagine Natalie will look like a giant beside Norah ha ha




Norah & my Godson, Chad (they are 1st cousins). Check out Norah's hair - she could seriously use a haircut since it's already over her ears...how cute! :)


(AC - you hit the nail on the head about the cycle of life!)

The girls were in a great mood yesterday after their naps so I captured a cute shot of them on Rachel's chair. Rachel slept from 10:30-2:30 (crazy, isn't it?) and Natalie had a few cat naps during that time.

I took Natalie to the doctor last Wednesday for her 4 month check up and she weighs 17lbs 5oz and is 24 3/4". She is in the "97+++" percentile for her weight and 75th percentile for her height. When the 2nd nurse came in the room to help out with the needles (each nurse gives a needle at the same time so there isn't as much screaming), she looked at Natalie and said to Sharon, our nurse, 'I don't have the right one' thinking that Natalie was older than 4 months. Sharon & I just giggled and told her she had the right one. That's when she admitted she thought Natalie was over 6 months but was confused since there aren't needles at the 9 month check up. :) Since Natalie has "delicious thighs", she didn't make a big scene when she got her needles. She's a trooper :)

We are finally getting Spring weather again. Last week was weird in regards to the weather. It was down right cold and windy. Yesterday was a beautiful day here - up over 30C and today is supposed to be 14C - what is Mother Nature doing? Oh well, at least it's sunny so we'll be able to play outside again this afternoon. Grandma & Grandad are on babysitting duty again tonight while Ron & I have dinner with friends. I know Rob & Amanda wouldn't mind if we brought the girls, in fact, they would probably like to see them, but I'm looking forward to a night out...and adult conversation :)
