Easter 2008, 10 months


Sorry for the rather lengthy delay between posts. I realize that Easter was almost a month ago. Clearly, I must improve my blogging habits. Afterall, I don't want Noli to think our life was a bore ;) So, let me catch you up on the latest...
Egg Hunt & Easter
Look at the 'then' and 'now' pictures. WOW! Noli was too young last year to do the hunt, but this year was different. She was in egg hunt training for a few days before the hunt. When the big day arrived, and they said 'go', she became overwhelmed with the sea of moms, dads & other kiddos running to the field to fetch eggs. I was right there with her, but only when the crowd thinned did she finally decide it was ok to fetch some eggs.

We enjoyed wonderful weather on Easter Sunday and Noli was able to dress up in a beautiful dress passed down from her friend, Isabella. She looked so cute in her flowery sandals and dress. See for yourself!
22 Month Update
Nola had a 22 month wellness check a few weeks ago and checked in at 18.8 lbs and 31.5 inches tall. No chub on this girl and it seems she will likely be taller than her mommy!! She eats well and some favorites include:

Noli is in the copying everyone stage...we look at her and wonder what she's doing and then realize she is mimicking one of our actions or stances. THIS IS HILARIOUS and ever-so-cute. She loves The Little Einstein's, Elmo, balloons, bubbles, and being outdoors.
She loves walking dogs (see previous post). Not long ago during one of our trips to the Farmer's Market, she walked up to anyone who had a dog and wanted to hold the leash. Many folks obliged which made Noli so happy and proud.
Ok...onto the pics-

First...can she get any cuter?
Second...love the mimicking stuff. Great to see those wonderful developmental stages unfold.
Third...crazy hair...LOVE IT!
Smooches from the DC pooches! [That's O'Brien and Madigan for those readers who haven't heard of the two. :-)]
