The Growing Sullivan Family: 11 weeks old!

Princess Norah is 11 weeks old already! Where does the time go!? This past week, she really discovered the dog and her hands! You can totally see her tracking Wrigley, and she will look for him when he barks. She's been putting her hands in her mouth for a couple weeks now, but now she looks at her hands in amazement. She will move her fingers and look shocked! It is amazing to watch a new little life discover things for the first time! She still hates tummy time, though! We practice every day, but she gets so frustrated and makes a scene! She's getting stronger though, and has almost rolled over a couple times. She's still full of smiles for mommy and daddy, and we cant get enough of them!!! I've really slacked on my picture-taking duties this week! It's been so chilly and windy that we've not spent our regular time outside! We got home from a walk earlier in the week and Norah's little face had black dust all over it! The wind just whips all the dust and gravel around, and I hate having to shield my eyes while simultaneously covering the baby when a big gust hits! Sooo we've had quite the lazy week indoors!

My two favorite people in the whole wide world!

Cant get enough of those cheeks!!!

This weekend we are planning a trip up to Mt. Charleston. It is about a 35-45 minute drive, and it's full of picnic and camping sites, trails and horseback riding, and lodges and resorts. There's still skiing going on there, too! It is generally at least 30 degrees cooler there than Las Vegas temps...this weekend is going to be upper 50's lower 60's...so Norah will probably wear a hat for the first time since coming home from the hospital! We will probably just walk around and check out the sites, then grab lunch at one of the restaurants at the resorts. I'm getting really sad that my time off of work is quickly dwindling! I go back to night shift May 3. As hard as night shift was before, it's going to be even harder on Friday nights going in on what I'm sure will be NO sleep! But thankfully, I'm able to just work two nights a week, Friday and Saturday. Norah will get quality time with both mommy and daddy every day of the week, and we save on babysitting and daycare fees...for now! This is just our temporary schedule for the remainder of our time here in Vegas...or as long as I can stand it!!

Still too little to fully appreciate the awesomeness of this bouncer...
