Just what the doctor ordered

We went to the doctor today for 2 month shots. Ms. Nora didn't love getting shots and she didn't feel great for the rest of the day but they are a necessary evil and the nurse did them so quickly. She also got weighed and measured and she's up to 7 lbs and 19 inches!


And now for the pic of the day:

Grammie came to visit!

Grammie Diane came all the way from Sugar Land today for a quick visit. She got to hold Nora for a while, watch the Lorax (he speaks for the trees), and eat a great taco dinner (shredded chicken in the crock pot, so easy, so delicious, ask me when I see you).

Blue maximized his Grammie time as well

A fundraiser for Nora

So in between diaper changes and bottles I have been organizing a fundraiser. What I thought was going to be a little thing has turned into a kind big deal. The outpouring of volunteers to help and donations to be auctioned has been tremendous. I am going to owe everyone big time. Free moves to everyone while I still have my truck and Sara will cook you gumbo :)

Anyway the event info is here on Facebook:

Please come! It is going to be a blast with food, music, and adult beverages.

If you can't attend but still want to help I have set up a PayPal donation link:

Thank you guys, so much. This is a time I will never forget.

Sara testing out her Moby. Turns out Nora and her like it!

What day is it?

Dug and I have fallen down the rabbit hole of new parenthood for sure. I can tell you what time it is and when the last time Nora ate but I can't tell you what day it is or what time it was the last time I ate. Oh well! Now for pictures from the last few days.

Blue and the baby

So one thing Sara and I were worried about is how Blue would be when Nora came home. Well he isn't sure either. He is very interested in her, and barks his head off at any "threatening" noise outside. Nora has definitely had her face licked a few times, with more in the future I'm sure. He's worried when she's crying and can tell Sara and I are a little stressed. He now sleeps at the foot of the bed, closest to Nora. I'm positive he will fall into the routine of things as we find it, probably have an easier transition than Sara and me. 

I did get a good shot of Nora and Blue on the couch, so enjoy!

The first day

We are all still alive and in good spirits after the first full day at home.

Woohoo!

Home

We're all home! Dug and Blue are cuddled up in bed and Nora is sleeping on my chest so I'm the only one awake right now and I figured I would post pictures from our adventure yesterday.
