High Jump
You would think with all that buildup, there would be a little more height to Nora’s hops. You would be mistaken.
Fall
A new haircut and a giant pile of fall leaves.

and now I’m jealous
I had to do SOMETHING to keep the brush-averse Nora from looking like a rock chewer every day, so we went back to Cookie Cutters and got her an adorable baby-sized bob.
funereal
I decided the internet should no longer be denied the sight of Nora in her Victorian Gothic Funeral costume for Jillian‘s yearly costume birthday party. Some day I may write over on Two Loose Teeth about the dress I sewed from a 1960s pattern, or Blake’s goth/punk/kilt situation, or about how Sarah and I wowed everyone with our Bette Midler song stylings, but today is not that day. In the meantime, there are more photos of this glorious (gorious?) event on Facebook here, here, here, and here.

Excited Face
I tried to get a video of Nora performing all her current tricks: Excited Face, snoring, saying “cheese,” and repeating the phrases “it’s complicated” and “super busted” (I have no idea). Alex makes a very supportive–if sometimes confusing–audience.
potato face
I think every kid with a Mr. Potato Head has done this. It’s a rite of passage.
put up your dukes
Nora put together this battle suit for herself: her Hulk gloves (a Christmas gift from Mallory) and the hunny pot helmet.
Pie Day
My mom had us come up to Spring City to put all of the apples and plums they had left at the end of the season into pies. Nora was such a great sport, stirring bowls and sorting apple peels all through our marathon day of baking. Grandma even made her a tiny pie of her very own.
