Mommy's little girl

Meeting the Great Grandparents

We took our first trip out of the house on our own on Friday to go to Mimi's house. Norah got to meet her great grandparents, her aunt, and her uncle. We had a very nice day trip and it was fun to actually leave the house! It took us a little while to actually get out the door, but once we were in the car it was a very smooth trip. Great Grandpa was very happy to hold his little girl! He has 5 great grandsons so he was waiting for this one to come along for a long time. So sweet!

Nothing but Adorable!

All About Alex!

Alex was very proud because he did these puzzles all by himself! Daddy showed him his first computer game and he though Centipede was pretty cool. Grandma had made some blankets for Norah and Alex decided to try them out for size first. He also has been enjoying walking around the house wearing Daddy's slippers.

Pretty Cool Job...

Alex decided that being a big brother is a pretty cool job.... plus you get lots of presents! He likes to hold her little hands.

New Clothes

Sleepy girl.... thank you for the wonderful little outfit!!!
Alex wanted his truck in the picture too so now you have something for scale.

Alex thought Norah needed some decoration so he put some Bob the Builder stickers on her head.

Alex loves Norah

Alex wanted to hold Norah a couple times yesterday and he likes how small her hands are. We put the cradle in the living room and he thought it looked like a fun place for him to be - he also likes to put teddy in it when Norah isn't in it. Sam's father built this cradle for Sam when he was born and since then all the Kelsey babies as well as a few others have slept in it. Pretty nice!

New Arrival!

Please help us welcome Norah Ann Kelsey to the family! She was born on September 12th at 3:33am weighing 6 lb 11 oz and measuring 19 inches long. Alex loves his baby sister and he is an awesome big brother! We're home today and all doing great!

Saturday Fun at the Beach

We took a little hike through Ellisville State Park (which is conveniently 2 minutes from our house) and had a fun time at the beach. We didn't see any seals but we had a great time and made it home just before the rain so it was perfect!

37 weeks....

YIKES!

BEEFCAKE!

Although BEEFCAKE might never see the water in our lifetime, Alex was having a great time playing in her!
