The sun has finally arrived!

It's been really beautiful all week and we've been taking advantage by giving our yard some TLC and going for nice walks. It's wonderful.

Here are some pics of some of our weekend outdoor time...

Max had many outdoor adventures over the weekend...here he is cleaning himself off after a 3-hour excursion where he met many of the neighborhood cats and seemed to have fun playing in our neighbors' disgusting garage/storage shed.

In Nora-news, the bananas didn't seem to work so well with her digestive system, so we've stopped feeding her those. We've given her some brown rice cereal with breastmilk a few times and she opens her mouth wide and grabs for the spoon, which we take to mean she likes it! The adventure of solid food continues and we learn as we go.

She's still mostly in her 3 45-minute naps a day stage, but on Monday she took a 2-hour nap in the afternoon, so I'm hoping that will become a habit! Good luck, right? We have nothing to complain about, however, b/c she sleeps from 9pm to usually around 4am (for her early breakfast) and then to 7 or 8. I could be wrong, though, b/c I've finally gotten to the point where I can hardly remember when/how many times she wakes up at night...we both half-sleep our way through early morning feedings.

Nora has also started to reliably turn from her belly to her back w/in about 10 seconds of being put down...she seems to be boycotting tummy time pretty effectively. Changing her diaper has become a bit more tricky as she's discovered how delicious her toes are and she yells when I have to take back one of her legs. Silly foot eater.

Anyway, here's a video of her rolling over late last week - she's 10x faster now...we'll have to get another video to compare! Enjoy.
