Generations

Four generations of the Holmes-Guenther family. (Nora was just a week and a half old in this picture)



Four generations of the Sowinski-Guenther family.


Two Months Old

Our happy girl is growing big and strong... but she still has chicken legs! Although even those are getting a little more plump. Here are her two month old pictures in the 12 month clothes. In addition to the clothes every month, I'm going to start putting her next to a frog she's got. Do I need to do two outfits and a frog every month? No. But it's fun!

Spring Has Sprung

Despite the weekend snow, spring has sprung in Chicago-land and all is right in Rusty's world. He's been waiting for days like this for a long time.

Nora's Buddies

Nora got to meet a couple new people recently. We went to a couple of restaurants (she slept the entire time!) and got a special visit from my Uncle Larry and Aunt Shari. Here are some of her new friends.


This is Nora with Thomas -- the wonderful boy I work with who always keeps me laughing. I met up with him and his mom at Cheeseburger in Paradise on Tuesday (a few weeks ago already - I'm a little behind...) for lunch.

This is one week and two day old Mallory. Her mom, Lindsay, and I work together and were preggers at the same time. We were due just 3 weeks apart. Needless to say, Mallory and Nora are 5 weeks apart. Insta-friends!

Nora and Mallory were born right around the same weight but look how much bigger Nora looks next to her. What a difference 5 weeks can make!!

First Smiles

She's been showing us that toothless grin lately. I haven't been able to capture a big one on camera yet, but here's a glimpse of one.




Here are a few other pictures. I figured out how to take black and whites. B&W pics can be so much cuter than color photos sometimes.

Daddy's Little Girl

This is her famous face. She's always puckering those lips of hers.

Ducky

All wrapped up in her ducky robe after her bath and looking so cute I just had to share.

One Month Old

It's hard to believe that our little Nora was a month old on Saturday. We already can't imagine life without her. Sometimes we find ourselves just staring at her. But with a face like that how can you not!

Here are some pictures of Nora in a 12 month dress and a 12-18 month (Wisconsin!) onesie. Every month, until she's a year old, I'll put her in this same outfit and take some pictures so we can see how she grows into it throughout the year. Enjoy!

Love the chicken legs sticking out!

How her dress is laying and her arms are positioned makes me think of an angel in this picture.
