naughty shark

On the way to my cousin’s wedding ceremony, Nora turned into a naughty shark for a few minutes. In case you don’t know, sharks (the naughty ones anyway) bite people’s arms and legs.

Nora loved the dance floor at the reception that night.

At Sarah’s graduation dinner, Marci tried to take pictures of Nora making faces for the different emotions. Most of them came out “manically surprised and slightly insane.”

Nora so rarely allows me to fuss with her hair that I had to take a picture. MULTIPLE ELASTICS. I know, right?

Chester

Sometimes you have to sneak in and take a picture of your kid while she’s sleeping, because it’s just too sweet and cute.

Plus, this is an excellent opportunity for you all to meet Chester, a souvenir Grandma brought Nora from New York (and an adorably creepy littlemissmatched sock doll). Sometimes Chester gets nervous at night, and Nora has to hold his hand to make him feel better.
