Nora is a social butterfly. She is so excited to be around other children, especially if they are older, or have beverages, food, or toys she can grab. Last week, we visited my dear friend Janette and her munchkins. Nora frolicked with Martin and Ari...finger painting, pool splashing, eating Korean pancakes (or was that me eating all of them?).
Here is a "better late than never" weekly photo from LAST Friday. Doesn't she look ridiculously grown up? A big girl sitting up at the table, preparing to finger paint. I shake my head.
She also has enjoyed some time with the radiant Veronica. Claire's little bundle of sunshine. They had a great time playing at Tender Green's, while us parents gobbled our meals that were occuring so close to bed time. Some of the best pics of these two are here.
It really was funny.
We also went to an ice-cream party at the lovely Julie's house...complete with crushed oreos, cookie dough, and caramel sauce for toppings. Here Dan and Nora talk to some of the sweeties at the party. The two sisters on the left were in love with Noodle.
She didn't quite feel the same when they wanted to hold her.
Keep creating your circle of friends, Lulu Bell. They are that special part of your family that you create, you choose...they will share your childhood, your job, your mean boss, your secrets. You don't need a gaggle of them...just a few...and you must nurture the relationships. Which reminds me, have I tried calling any of these ladies today? Some are finishing work, some are sleeping in Germany, some are closing up their coffee shops, others are picking up cakes...sending out love to you all!
