Play time!

So glad I get to spend an extra six weeks at home with this beautiful girl before going back to school!!!!! :) We are going to have so much fun!

Bridal Shower

Yesterday we attended Jimmy and Erin's bridal shower at my parent's house. It was a lovely (but steamy) day outside. Everything turned out beautiful. Now, all we need is for the big day, October 2nd, to arrive and my little brother will be a married man!

The 'head' table. The best man, Greg DeCourval decided to make an appearance too! Good thing because there were a ton of heavy gifts that needed lifting! :)


Addison and Norah!


Grandpa Baird walked down to the house a little later.


Norah really loves the bouncy seat at my Mom and Dad's house because it is extra bouncy. She has figured out that when she kicks her feet it gets her movin'. She really had those legs goin'!

Some of the beautiful decorations!

Flowers in the bird bath! Clever!

Ashlie made this beautiful salad at Norah's shower. It was so pretty I decided to make it for the shower!

Cheeseburger in Caseville

Norah experienced her first Cheeseburger in Caseville last night. Her Daddy informed her that she better get used to going with her parents, because she will never go up there on her own. My goodness, the way some of those girls were dressed and behaving was shameful. Of course, Norah is more of a lady than they are, so I know we won't have to worry about her behaving that way! :) Anyway, she loved hearing the band play. She was even pumping her fist in rhythm with the drum. Her Uncle Jimmy was pretty excited about having a possible future band member there! We had a wonderful time and needless to say, when we all got home we ALL slept well!

Norah getting ready for her big debut at Cheeseburger!

Us in front of the Bud Light hummer. This is what we took through the parade!


Conked right out......this partyin' stuff is hard work!

Drew's other trophy

We just had the urge to put Norah in the bowl that Drew won from the Club Championship. And Aunt Ashlie insisted on seeing a picture of Norah in the bowl..... :) Too cute!

Club Championship

Norah had her first trip to Verona last night to cheer her Daddy on in the Club Championship! We are very proud of Drew because he won first place this year! He was so excited to have his little girl there when he came off of the 18th green! Great playing Drew!!!! We couldn't be prouder!

Spoiled!

Norah was spoiled, yet again, on Saturday with another shower! Norah's Aunt Ashlie threw a "Meet Norah" party on Saturday. My friends Jennifer, Renee, and Kim were able to make it and then both Grandma's, Audrey, Lilly and Ashlie were there too! It was great to have my girlfriends there to meet Norah! It was a wonderful time of visiting and catching up. Ashlie had a wonderful spread of delicious food and desserts! Thank you Ashlie for putting this together for Norah! We had a great time!

The adorable (and yummy!) cookies in Norah's name. How festive!

Renee and Norah!

The hostess, Aunt Ashlie and Norah

I had to include this picture. When Mark and Drew got home from golfing, they thought it would be a good idea to find some pesky crows and well, I think you can tell from the picture what they were trying to do! Oh, the ways we entertain ourselves!

Bar-b-que

While Drew was golfing on Thursday, Norah and I ventured out to a cookout at Maggy and Eric's house. Norah was very well behaved and had a great time visiting with everyone!

Her Uncle Jimmy just adores her!

So dramatic!

When Drew got home from work it was time for a little cuddle time. Norah was a little dramatic while she was laying with her Daddy! It must have been too bright for her precious little eyes! :)

Five Generations

We went to my parent's house on Monday night to take our five generations picture. My great-grandma is 105 years old!!!!! We feel so blessed that Norah was able to meet her! It is amazing to think about what my great-grandma has been through and what she has seen the world go through and all of the things Norah has yet to see!

My great-grandma, Laura, my mom, Judy, my grandma, Mona, Norah and I.
