Another weekend at the lake......

We went to the lake this weekend with my parents and sister. Had a great time! Here are some pictures of Nora in her swimming suit etc. Enjoy



Where is Nora? The life jacket is eating her up!!!!!!!! HG likes to snuggle next to Nora.

It's weird to see a bottle of milk rather than a bottle of beer on the pontoon-hahahahah Lissie, Nora, Coconut and Chloe.
Hula likes to wear Nora's clothes...

Cute feet
Miss Serious!

WOW, N is not happy..... She looks cute though huh?!

Have a great week.

Nora celebrated Father's Day and her Daddy & Aunt Lissie's Birthday's!

Nora was happy as could be on her Daddy's first Father's Day! We had a great day. We went to church, out to lunch, went to Steiger Lake where Chloe and Hula Girl went swimming, then we went to DQ, watched the US Open and went on a walk! Pete says his first father's day was great!
Nora riding HG at the dog park (since swimming wasn't enough)

Nora was cracking up all day. Oh and she just about rolled over! Her arm was in her way so we called in the 98% roll over-Way to go N!

I love this picture of Pete and Nora


Chloe shakin off in between launches!
Yes, Hula Girl actually cared to swim and retrieve her toy!
Look at that launch! She is 7 years old and can still launch super high and long! Way to go C!





Hula got pooped out!






Nora dancing with her Grand Pappy at Fogo De Chao where we celebrated Pete's & Alissa's birthdays!





Nora has been a busy girl with Father's Day, birthday celebrations, first Legion experience, shopping.... She and I spent all day Friday together as usual... We also spent Saturday together as Pete had to make a trip to Des Moines for his Great Aunt ZiZi's funeral. She was 87 years old. Everyone is sad she is gone but she was very sick at the end. May she rest in peace. Nora and I did not make the trip as it would have been a little difficult to travel with a 3 month old for a day trip to Des Moines. Pete got to see his family and was happy to see them. Nora and I missed them.
Happy 1st Birthday to Camryn Jacobsmeier today! Also Happy Birthday to Aunt Beverly!
Please say an extra prayer for Aunt Janice tonight. She is getting some more tests tomorrow to see where her cancer is. Lets pray for the best!
Hope everyone is doing great! We are good... Love to everyone.

Back by popular demand!!! Size photos!











Nora visited Paris Hilton in jail and got her own "jailbird" outfit!



Nora sure is getting big! We are not sure of her exact weight but we are guessing she is between 11 and 12 lbs (wish I could lose that x 3). Anyways, she is a sweetheart and growing a ton! Enjoy these 14.5 week size shots.

Nora is 3 months old (well on the 4th)

Life is great! We love our little Nora so very much. We have been very busy lately! Pete really has been busy. His new business, Square and Balanced Handyman is taking off! He has been putting in the hours and enjoying his new gig to the fullest! A happy dad and husband is worth the wait for him at night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nora turned 3 months on June 4th. Our friend, Jodi Carr (www.jodiannphotography.com) took her pictures last Saturday. I will post a few online at a later date. They turned out very nicely! Oh, and Nora peed on me during the nude shots!
Nora is super close to rolling over! She is also full of smiles and coos. Every day she makes our days brighter than the day before!
We ask that all of you still pray for my Aunt Janice. The doctors are determining how they are going to treat her. She and her French Canadian boyfriend are staying with my parents right now.
I intended to write more but I got caught up with something else... Here are some photos.
Pete, Nora and HG on Pete's birthday. Hula is really starting to like Nora. She takes Nora's socks off every time we walk in the door with her. HG also enjoys taking her dirty clothes out of her basket!
Dude, I love sunglasses! I look so cool in these.
