rocking out
Sarah and Blake took Nora to the Arts Festival while I was gone, and on the way out she got so tired that the only thing to do was to lie right down in the rocks and sing a little song.

This is what happens when Nora wants Blake to play with her, but Blake wants to take a nap.
cuddle time
Who doesn’t like to cuddle during a movie? With some snacks?
miniature golf
Nora was convinced that this ball channel lined with astroturf was a slippery slide, and she was determined to prove it (at the expense of her pants).
who needs rules?
Nora didn’t do much actual mini-golfing, but she kept us busy chasing after golf balls and following her up and down every astroturfed contour. Thank goodness we had the place all to ourselves. Awesome activity idea, Jennilyn!
honey crunch
Okay, yes, I am the kind of mother who feeds her child corn dogs from time to time. But look at that face. Could you say no? And corn dogs are really good for dipping.
mom’s shoes
Any baby of taste enjoys walking in a pair of Louboutins now and then.
Mommy loves you
Nora’s come a long way from answering this question with “Wall-E.”
Oh, man. My heart bursts open every time she bites her fist.
cutest android on the block
This is the event that convinced Kaeleigh that my daughter is an android. I had forgotten some of the details, but thankfully I heard Kaeleigh’s Nora impression the other day (transcribed here).
After fleeing the rained-out outdoor showing of Mamma Mia, we all ended up back at my house, where Blake was getting Nora ready for bed.
Nora: “Rain! Outside! Outside! Outside! Rain! On face! Outside! Outside! Outside!”
So, we obligingly got Nora bundled up in her rain coat and galoshes, and set her down on the sidewalk in front of the house.
Nora: “Ew! Ew! Ew! Ew! Inside! Inside! Inside!”
Pretty much exactly like an android.
