Nothing New

This past week was pretty relaxing. We really didn't do much. Just trying to stay warm. It has been getting colder and colder. There are even snow flurries falling right now as I'm writing this. On Wednesday we are headed down to the Jaegers in Johnson Creek for a few days. Seth has a Teacher's Conference in Milwaukee so Norah and I are tagging along. It will be very nice to visit with family and friends.

A Fun Weekend Getaway

This past weekend Norah and I traveled again. We started off on Friday morning and headed to Hartford, WI to visit Jenni and Kevin Lauer and their new little girl Hayden Lily. We had a great time there. It was so fun to snuggle with Hayden who is two weeks old. Jenni looked amazing. I don't think I looked that good when Norah was two weeks old. Norah and I spent the night with them. We visited with them on Saturday till we had to leave for Cousin Miriam's wedding in Milwaukee. Jenni's mom, dad and sister-in-law stopped by on Saturday morning. It was very nice to see them. Then we were off to the wedding.

As soon as we walked into the church we saw Uncle Sam, cousin Bettina and Meg. They were all excited to meet Norah. She even snuggled with them a little. Later on we got to visit with Aunt Mary, Aunt Sue, Uncle Pete, Cousin Joe and Great Aunt Ruth. Cousin Miriam looked beautiful, like always, next to her new husband Ryan. It was a very nice wedding. Norah and I went to the reception and had dinner then we hit the road again to go to Grandma and Grandpa Jeagers for the night (someone was just a little sleepy). In the morning Norah had fun playing with Grandma and Grandpa. Especially Grandpa because it was his birthday. Then we headed home to see Dad. It was a fast little trip but we had a wonderful time visiting with friends and family.

Visiting the Ducks

Since Norah loves to be outside and the weather was so nice, we decided to take her to a park in town this afternoon. A lot of people call it the Duck Park because there is a little stream next to it that is usually filled with ducks. Norah really didn't care too much about the ducks. I think she was more into the leaves on the trees. It was nice to be able to just relax and hang out outside at least one more time before the horrible long winter comes.

Yeah Pumpkins!!

These pictures were taken at Klinger's Farm Market in Chippewa Falls. Norah loved the pumpkins almost as much as she loved being outside. We had fun looking around and Seth even enjoyed a carmel apple as we left. It is a place we will definitely go again.

The wind chimes were very entertaining.

This was a cat that hung out at Klingers. Norah just stared.

They had a bunch of extremely large pumpkins that were much bigger then Norah.

5 Months Old

Yesterday, Norah was officially 5 months old. We had a very nice day and had a lot of fun because Seth didn't have school so he was at home with us. We were planning on going to get pumpkins, but it was kind of a gloomy day. So we went to get pumpkins today. It was such a beautiful day. It even got into the 70s. So later in the day we even went to a park in town to watch the ducks. I'm going to post another blog with all those fun fall pictures.

To Brighten Your Day

This morning I found something else that was sooo funny. Sorry the video is sideways. I had to tape it myself and I realized it too late so I decided to just keep it that way. So you'll give your neck a little workout while watching. Have a great Thursday!

Yummy, but Confused

Today Norah had a first. She got to try rice cereal for the first time! She was confused at first, but then she got the hang of it and actually started eating the cereal. By the end I think she was enjoying it and was opening her mouth to get more, but still wasn't sure what was going on.
