8 Months Old

Yesterday Norah was 8 months old. She isn't crawling yet but she's got the backwards pushing thing down. We can tell she is getting stronger everyday. She still babbles all the time and is screaming away. She is eating a lot more solid foods now as well. I don't think baby food is going to last too much longer because she loves feeding herself. She is so much fun and we are appreciating her lack of mobility while it lasts.



You can really see her teeth in this one.

Ah, the face before she fills her pants.

Seth's favorite pajamas.

Now I have to worry about two little ones who like to chew on things.

Johnson Creek Christmas

Once we flew back to Wisconsin, we stayed with Grandma Joyce and Grandpa Jaeger. Seth's cousin Lisa got married on New Year's Eve and the next day we had Christmas with the Jaegers. It was a great time. It was fun to see all of the Jaeger cousins together. It was really neat to see Rowan with Norah. Rowan just loved her. She pretty much cared less about her little sister and her cousin Henry. She would give her hugs and kisses, bring her toys, and even sit next to her and put her arm around her and hold her hand. And of course Norah got spoiled again by her grandparents, aunts and uncles. We can't wait to see everyone again soon.

All the cousins together.

California Christmas

This year we went out to have Christmas with the Bergs out in CA. Once we got there (7 hours later than planned because of weather in the Midwest) we had a lot of fun visiting with everyone, not to mention the weather wasn't bad either. The whole family loved seeing and playing with Norah. It was so nice to see them on Christmas this year. We are definitely looking forward to our next visit.

Cute ice skate booties from Grandma and Grandpa.

Grandpa says he can now die a happy man because of these pictures.

Bloomer Christmas

Because we were going to be traveling to CA for Christmas, we had our own family's Christmas the weekend before we left. It was fun to watch Norah "unwrap" her presents. She actually did a pretty good job. We just had to get her started. She liked all of her gifts and we had fun getting them for her. Seeing her this Christmas gets us excited for ones to come.

The Jaeger Family is Growing

No I'm not pregnant. But we did add a new member to our family today. We got a puppy. His name is Cash, after Johnny Cash not money. He is a pure bred chocloate lab and he is 10.5 weeks old. We always knew we would get a puppy someday it just happened sooner than expected.

I'm going to post pictures from Christmas a little later.
