Nora got to play with her third cousin, Gavin for the first time at the reception of Uncle Drew's wedding.

Nora really enjoyed riding in the RV we rented with Grandpa, Grandma, and Auntie Pea for the week in California.

Cuddling on Lake Tahoe with the Johnson family.

Daddy and Nora enjoying a sailboat ride on Lake Tahoe.

Nora's newest face. The wrinkled nose is hard to resist!

This what a play group with eight babies looks like! I'm not going to say anything more ;-)

Nora's new friend Charlie (on the right) was still hungry after his lunch. Ella was also hungry but couldn't find anyone's shirt to munch on.

Nora was enjoying her new friend Sam's finger at our first play date.

"Ethan, what are you doing to that toy? I thought your daddy said to stop doing that!"

Look at those lines!

HOT

Nora almost melted tonight at Jazz in the Park. Her clothes stayed on for about 5 minutes after we arrived. It was 95 degrees without a breeze. I don't know how she stayed in such a good mood for the whole night.

We took our first shower together right when we got home. All that sun block made everything stick to her skin (ok, maybe it was the sweat too!). It's hard to wash a slippery baby while naked and standing up! It is definately a two person job. I handed her off to Brian to dry and dress her so I could make the water nice and cold.

It is supposed to be even hotter tomorrow. I know you AZ people may not sympathize, but 90% humidity and 95 degrees is extremely uncomfortable and I don't know how you can live there. Hopefully it won't be that hot in Nevada City!

"No! I want the kitty!" Sharing isn't something Nora has had to deal with yet. We'll see how it goes when she starts daycare in August!

Playing with Ethan and Logan. Ethan was quite confused by the strange baby pulling at his arms!

Sweet!

Nora made it to 6:30 this morning!!!

Good Morning

Nora has decided that she wants to wake up at 4:45 for the past few mornings. Not cool. This morning we let her cry for 45 minutes and she still didn't go back to sleep! What's up with this?

Hopefully it will have stopped before our group vacation in California! I don't think Grandpa, Grandma and Autie Pea would appreciate a screaming Nora at 4:45 am!

Remfrey family on Father's Day Eve

This is Nora's "La La" face.

What a great Father's Day weekend!

Scooting

Nora is beginning to scoot backwards. This seems to really tick her off especially if she is trying to move toward an object like the cat. Sydney (the kitty) seems quite happy that the baby isn't moving at her yet.

Today while I was making crab dip, Nora was on the floor in the kitchen with me getting utterly frustrated as she moved further and further away from me and Syd. Moving backward coupled with spinning in circles seems to be the way to get places right now. We'll see how this progresses.

Nora's legs continue to become looser. My paranoia is starting to subside much to Brian's relief. I think the crazy special ed mom was starting to scare him.
