Cute pics

We love to paint

Nora really loves art.

Gooing

playdoh masterpiece

Oh yes, my daughter is quite the sculptor. Too bad we can't understand what it is... We're working on that.

Whenever Nora gets to hold Abby, she always says "Take a picture, mommy." Pretty funny.












Nora nursing her baby. ;)



















Abby swinging away...she loves to swing.





















Daddy and Nora playing guitar. She asks Phil to play on the weekends!

Sisters

Nora LOVES being a big sister. She brings her toys, sings to her when she cries, and dances in front of her to make her smile. I couldn't have asked for a better big sister for Abby.

Little first noises

Abby is holding her head up better every day. She can also roll from her back to her side! Well, she did it once... ;)

Nora's ABCs

Lovin that little face

What a life

Nora is so happy to have a sister. She says "This is my sister" and "I'm big." She has really adjusted well.

Sweet Love

Visitors!

Grandma Teresa has come to visit. We have definitely put her to work...but she keeps saying she loves it! In fact, she might even move down. Ok, probably not, but I bet we will be having more visits soon. Next time Grandpa Bill has to come with!











Marianne made the trip down too! She brought with her lots off goodies from Crissie and Julie. Thanks to all!!













Uncle Dusty and Calley came by also. We actually got a shot of Dusty holding Abby. Calley is a pro, but Dusty likes babies that are a bit more sturdy. We love him anyways:)

Happy Halloween

Check out our pumpkin cuties!

Abigail

Celebrating!

Nora and Grandma and Grandpa Herth came to see us in the hospital. It was a wonderful time of introductions. Nora is so sweet with her little sister.

Abby Arrives!

Abigail Teresa Schumaker made her grand arrival October 3rd 2006 at 8:36pm! She weighed in at a whopping 8 lbs 15 oz and 20 inches long. She is healthy and happy and her big sister is soo excited.

Play time!

Here are some great friends who came to play! They went from only diapers and underwear to all dressed up and no place to go!

Daddy's chemistry goggles, or reading, which is more fun?

Fun times with prego mommy

Soccer girl

As you can tell, we have some major talent in our family.

Nora and the new purple soccer ball ;)

Check out our little soccer player. She LOVES playing with her daddy. Nora says she needs running shoes so she can play better.

Abby's room

So after many months of reorganizing our "storage room," it actually now looks like a baby's room! We're pretty proud. Phil put in shelving in the closets, which helped our cause greatly. Here are the results.
