It is with a drumroll and streamers and whoops and hollers that I prounounce Nora a biped. As I sipped delicious ginger-lime margaritas alongside the Naples Canals at dusk, Nora was taking her first little steps into the arms of Daniel and his mom down by the marina.
A tad bittersweet to receive a text that the child to whom you are practically attached 24/7 decided to accomplish a huge milestone while you spend a rare moment away...but amazing, nonetheless.
She even felt bad about me missing it, so despite her hunger and exhaustion, she took a step for me right before bed. That's my girl.
We have been having quite the Labor Day Weekend...celebrating Noah's birthday, having Dan's mom visit, and wishing Lauren a lovely ride into her 30's. The fiestas have given me ample opportunities to sip wine and cocktails and relish the end of summer.
Some of the best pictures are below.
And my Zen Doula, extraordinary woman...and now friend, Lauren, blows out the fire on her 20's.
