Nora~10.5 Months

I took these photos of Nora real quick when she was 10.5 months old--just outside at my parents. I knew it would be too cold out when it was her birthday, and since we were (still are) in our apartment, all of my indoor photo stuff is in storage, plus there is almost no natural light in this apartment; it is a terrible place fore taking photographs. That being said, I fee like I've missed out on being to take good pictures of Nora as she has grown up these past almost 8 months. I hope I will be able to make up for it in our new house. (We will be there soon. Yay!!!)

Colorful Fall Leaves? Not this time...

At the end of September, we always go on an annual drive with Russ's family to see the changing leaves. For some reason or other, there was no color when we went this year...At least not color in the leaves. We did, however, see a beautiful colorful rainbow, and the drive was beautiful all the same. It was pretty cold for our picnic afterwards, but the kids never seem to mind. I love traditions :)

Isn't Nora a little cutie?
These girls are so cute together! I'm glad they are good friends and that Mylie has a cousin so close in age to her. I can't wait until we move into our new house so they can get together again!   Oh, look! Someone must have talked to Nora. She has/had (still kind of has) major stranger anxiety. She is a mama and dada's girl for sure! Cute boys!   I love Coy's smile for pictures.   Here is the beautiful colorful rainbow by the not so colorful leaves.

Family Pictures 2014

We took these pictures back at the very end of August! It is crazy how much has happened since then! I can't wait to hang them up in our new house, even though they will be a bit outdated by then! It will be a problem making decisions on which one/ones to make up :) My dad and mom came along to help out. My dad snapped the photos after I tried my best to set up the shot, and my mom worked hard on getting the smiles!
