From the beginning

Only a few hours old. When she was first born her cries sounded like a dog's squeaky toy! She loved the sound of running water and being naked.

One Month Old. She was so cuddly, always wanting to be held. This picture was taken in our hotel room in Washington D.C.. It was her first big trip, a 12 hour drive, she did pretty well considering. She and I toured the museums and saw the sights while Ahmed was at his conference. Lucky us!

2 Months Old. Noorah has always loved her baths, even the sound of running water got her so excited.

3 Months Old. She started rolling over around 3 months, she was always very advanced for her age, even though she was so little!

4 Months Old. She loved rolling around and was trying so hard to move! I'm pretty sure her two bottom teeth pooped out around 4 and a half months.

5 Months Old. Aunt Kelly came to visit, we went to Cape Cod all together and saw the pretty beaches and a SEAL! Really close! Noorah was eating solids and rooling, trying to scoot and on her way to crawling.

Trip to the Farm

Noorah and I went to the farm! She was so intrigued by the horses. For the first few minutes she wanted to hold onto my dress, but then she went right to the fence and tried to climb it to get to the horses. She was in love! She didn't take her eyes off them, she just kept talkintg to them and trying to touch them. The cows she wasn't so interested in, I think she was just done for the day by the time we got over to them.

She's taking a few steps on her own every now and again, not really walking, but definitely trying and her balance is really good.

She can stand up without pulling up on something, and she can sit back down without crashing. She's got 4 teeth up top and 2 tiny ones on bottom. She's getting so tall and is very very noisy, but really...did you expect anything else!? All day long she just keeps saying da da da ta

I'm starting this blog because it takes way too long to email all the pictures and updates to everyone, and I can only send a few at a time. Also this will double as kind of an online journal for me. Keep checking back for new pictures and posts!
