august 2015

As previously mentioned, Mom Life is insane.  Here's what August looked like (Nora at 7 months):

burrow beeleys looking spiffy for derek and jackie's wedding

grandpa is perhaps nora's biggest fan

shannon taking excellent care of nora on my first day back to work!

sometimes you try to hug your cousin at her birthday party and you accidentally tackle her instead.

dress your baby like harry potter.  no one can stop you.

two year anniversary for these babes.

very important giggles.

next up: september...maybe someday pictures from my actual camera and not just my phone.

eleanor jayne: burrow visitors, vol. 2

Nora had more visitors in her first few days.  Brandon, Grace, and Dena came to meet her.  Brandon walked in the house, threw flowers at me, and immediately tried to steal Nora from Shannon.  It was love at first sight.  Plus, then he got to see Miss Andrea!

I think my heart just exploded.

talking to Nora

staring at her, then her picture, then her, then her picture...

marriage: week three

Things I learned in our third week of marriage:

-If you start to doze off during the rosary, your husband will kick you.
-Barbecue Chicken Dip (similar to Buffalo Chicken Dip) is delicious.

Week Three Challenge: Pray the rosary together every day this week.
Week Three Highlights: Shannon + Ryan over for dinner/football, best friend birthday festivities, our beautiful new mattress and duvet cover arriving (still no bed!...it's like a slumber party every night)

Remember these cuties? They got married on Saturday! My contribution was taking pictures of the pizza (and I nailed it).  Here are some of my favorite shots from the night:
