Here it is!

11:16 AM

So I have a good story.  This morning Norah was taking her nap and I was in my room getting ready.  I heard her wake up and she was happy and playing in her crib.  Then I heard, "yucky, yucky".  I thought to myself, "oh no she is only in her diaper".  Dumb mistake I know, but my child likes to sleep with no clothes on.   I quickly ran into her room, freaky out that I would have a room covered in poop.  I opened the door and the smell of poop rushed over me.  I was terrified to peer inside her crib.  She had a huge smile on her face with her hand down her diaper.  "yucky, mama, yucky".  Thankfully, there was no poop smeared all over her crib, just a little on her hands.  Whew, I am okay...for now!  I know the day will come.  I think it is every Mom's calling in life to clean at least one crib, child and wall covered with poop, right?  =)


What else is Norah up to?  Talking, talking, talking.  She loves to chat.  You can kind of make some sense of what she is saying.  It is adorable.  We are having so much fun watching her grow up and form her own little personality.  She is getting much better with her temper.  I don't know if it was some weird phase, but thankfully she is out of it.  She only bites now, which you can usually stop her before she gets to your face.  =)  Trust me, just biting is much better than what it was!

Seth and I are doing great.  He is working hard at his job.  They finally got his project rolling and now he is very busy.  He is enjoying the challenge.  As I said before, I am busy at home, with BeautiControl and about to start teaching again.  I am only teaching 1 day this year so I won't be gone too much.

We had a real estate agent come out yesterday and she gave us an estimate as to what we could sell our house for right now.  We are prayerfully considering the option of selling and moving closer to Seth's work into a rental for a year to save money.  Not sure what we will do, or if it will ever become a reality.  It is just a prayer right now.  We'll keep you posted.

Okay, there is the update.  I compiled a bunch of random photos taken over the last month.  Some vacation, some just random hanging around the house and some from Nonna Susan's visit!  We miss you Nonna!!!  Come back soon or call us on Skype!!

    Cannot say that I have ever experienced the poopy diaper situation the way you did. Maybe you have to set your alarm and get up before she does. Yucky Yucky!! Great Grandma DGgwvagi

    Had the same experience with Jessie. She was yapping a mile a minute and had her diaper OFF when I got in there. Even after 30 years, a mother doesn't forget these days!
    I miss you all too!! (the house next door is still for sale =)
