Seriously, Jenny, I am not kidding

Nora did a lot of things for the first time this past week! She went to IKEA for the first time to make her Aunt Molly jealous. She also went there because her Nona has a deep adoration for IKEA.... Pete also likes to have an excuse to go there as IKEA makes me have anxiety attacks with all of the people that go there so he does not get to go there much (he can go, he just chooses not to).... Nora also went to MOA (Mall of America) with her Nona, Pete and me last week. Of course her first store was Nordstrom that she went into (smart girl). Nora also had to say adios to her Nona for the first time on Saturday. Both Nora and Nona were very sad but they are looking forward to seeing each other in May. Nora really loves her Nona and cannot wait for her to come back up here as Nora is her new favorite :)! Nora went to work for the first time with me on Wednesday. She loves being there. It was our dry run for when I go back to work.... It takes a long time getting 2 of us ready in the morning! Nora also went to her very first MN Twins game on Wednesday night with us and the Jiovanazzo's! Nora almost got hit twice by foul balls. Thank God Jenny and I are so alert and into the games that we took cover with Nora immediately. AND last night, Nora slept for 6 hours straight for the FIRST time and hopefully not the last time.

Nora enjoyed a BBQ at Missy and Mike Levy's on Saturday (speaking of firsts, it was Mike's first time BBQing and he did great). She was awake most of the time we were there! She slept pretty good that night! At Missy and Mike's, Jenny and Jeff gave me a really cool bottle of wine-NORA for my birthday. I cannot wait to try it. It is one of the nicest gifts I have received.

This week, Nora has learned how to drop her pacifier to her chin and pick it back up with her tongue. Of course, she usually spits it across the room so this is a real treat when she actually does her new trick.

I took some more "size" photos of Nora. The last time we took them was when she was 3.5 weeks and she is 7 weeks now! She really has grown a lot.
