You know what’s super handy? Being friends with someone else’s nanny. Jillian picked up Nora and fed her and Rylee lunch before taking them to the park and Maggie Moo’s. AWESOME.
I’m not sure Blake was adequately impressed.
Sarah and E more than fulfilled their auntly obligations by taking their respective nieces and nephews to an outdoor fair/benefit event in our neighborhood. Face-painting and coma-inducing amounts of sugar were enjoyed by all, and Nora charmed the live band into letting her be part of the percussion section. How’s that for sending summer out with a bang?
Blake and Nora have had so much fun with the blocks Sarah gave her. They take forever building the most elaborate castle they can, employing as many “tricks” as possible, and then the Knockdown Monster shows up and demolishes it to huge fanfare.
Nora just has a supporting role in this one–we both try to get Alex to sing his ABCs.
Here’s Nora, just effortlessly being the most awesome kid in swimming lessons.
Nora and I visited Red Butte Gardens with Alex and Ellen (or as Alex and Nora call her, ‘Papa’).
Nora and the rest of her class from her awesome preschool took a field trip up to Millcreek Canyon for a hike. So cute, it almost makes me want to start going outside.
Nora photobombing Lily: also known as just another day at preschool.
Nora saw these photos and asked, “why is Dad eating at Paradise Bakery?” Good question–I think his face reveals his lack of enthusiasm about the menu.
