A beautiful 2-year-old girl

This is an update just about Nora.  It's mostly for my own sake, so that one day I can look back after these days fly past and fondly remember the little things that make me love this girl so!  She is definitely all girl- she loves shoes (and would change at least 5 times a day if I let her!), carrying a purse, lip gloss, playing with babies, playing with her kitchen.  She patiently sits while mommy combs her hair and then admires the end results in the mirror. She even has started loving to pose for the camera.
She loves Daddy, and she has him pretty well wrapped around that little finger!  She asks him for gum frequently, another one of her passions.  She can easily chew the same piece for over an hour.
She loves to have songs sung to her at night.  Her favorite two are "You Are My Sunshine" and the alphabet, which she can sing by herself, if she thinks you aren't listening!  She was so much slower to talk than Dane, but she just took off over the past 2 months.  Before then, she hardly said a word, but she speaks in complete sentences all the time now.  She asks for her "special princess phone" and her "special princess camera" and loves to carry them around in her backpack if we're going somewhere.
She gives big hugs and sweet kisses and pats us on the back. She admires her big brother above all. She is our sweet "Sister"!
