Sunday Update

Well it turns out today wasn't as nice as expected. We were hoping to have a family trip to the park, but it was raining when we woke up. I made a trip to the gym and soon after I got back Seth decided to go on a run (in the drizzle). He wasn't sure how far he went, but he looked it up on googlemaps when he got home and it turns out he went 12 miles. Perhaps he was inspired by Greta and Katie running the Chicago marathon this morning.

Norah spent most of her waking hours walking. Everywhere. She definitely decided this weekend that her preferred mode of transportation is walking. She is now an expert at getting up when she falls (without holding on to anything), and literally walks all over with no destination in mind.

Yesterday while Norah was walking up and down the sidewalk and she took a nose dive and has a scab on her nose to prove it. When it happened she scrunched up her nose and let out one long cry, but that was it. Seth and I have individually thought at times that she seems pretty tough, but neither of us have said anything because we don't want to come across as those people who think their kid excels on all fronts. Having said that, we are conscious about doing what we can to prevent her from being wimpy. Maybe it is paying off.
