Good week!

Wow. I didn't realize how sick of the cold I was until this mini heat wave! Being outside for much of the day has made a big difference in Nora and my energy levels and good humor. I know it will snow at least one more time before it's truly spring, but I'm enjoying the 60 degree weather while it lasts. :)

Other than the weather, there hasn't been a lot of news this week. Nora got a potty and has been occasionally sitting on it (clothed) while we sit on the big potty. Once she sat on it naked before her bath but decided to stand up and pee on the floor instead. She'll get it when she's ready. :) She loves to carry it around the house and pretends to wipe w/ one square of tp - she blows her nose with it after wiping...not very sanitary.

Anyway, here are some cute pictures of a particularly messy mealtime (oatmeal, yogurt and apples = yummy + good for dry skin + hard to clean out of eyelashes):



Here's Nora at the Botanical Garden on Friday. Seriously, I didn't even ask her to pose for this picture. Too funny.




And, walking across Wade Oval on our way to the Botanical Garden:


Here she is sporting her new big girl jean jacket!



Finally, some live action fun:

Thanks for reading this LONG post! I hope the weather's delightful wherever you are too. Funny, how 65 degrees, cloudy and kind of rainy seems tropical after a Cleveland winter. :)
