More Texas Pictures

As I mentioned before we had such a great time and can't wait to go back. I hope that Nora gets to know her "Texas Family" and that they will be a part of her life.  Here are a few more pictures from our trip.

Everyone loved Nora, ,especially Aunt Emma. 

Aunt Gloria Too!

But no one could love her more than her Tia Adriana.  If you ever needed to find Nora you just had to find my sister.

4 Generations

First things first. Can you believe this beautiful woman is 94 years old! Yes 94! I hope I get some of her ever lasting looks.

My Nana has been such a huge part of my entire life. Although she lives in Texas we always saw her a few times a year. She would typically come stay with us for a few weeks at a time. I love her more than I can put into words.  

It was only fitting we took Nora out to meet her great grandma in Texas. It was her first flight and she did so well. We spent a week in Texas visiting family which was so special for everyone to meet Nora. Especially Nana. She was too cute......we landed in TX late at night but my Nana was there waiting for us. She could hardly contain her excitement and had to see Nora the second we got off the plane. It was true love!

Here are a few pictures of the beautiful generations. Pretty good looking family eh!

This was taken the night we got there.  Nora was such a trooper and it was such a special moment to see my Nana hold my daughter.

We had a small birthday party for Nana to celebrate her 94 years of life!

I'm Back

Wow has it really been 4 months since my last post!! Time is really flying by here in the Nardini house.  Nora is now 9 months old and getting so big.  I have a bunch of saved posts I created a while ago and I will try to go back and post some of them to get caught up.  Hopefully I can get back on track with posting so please check back. I promise I will try to post more.

Lions and Steelers

In case you didnt know already we are HUGE PSU and Steeler fans. Nora doesn't really have a choice when it comes to football. She is already a fan of both teams and she can't wait for the upcoming football season.

Update- We have more pictures of Nora in her PSU and Steelers gear that I will be sharing soon.  We are still looking forward to the upcoming football season.

Family Friends

What would you do without amazing friends?? My parents have been friends with the Buckleys for as long as I can remember. You can say they are part of the family. We have been together for so many special milestones in our lives, that it only seemed fitting that they got to meet Nora over the holidays. Currently they live in CT but they were visiting family in NJ for Christmas. So we hopped in the car and took a quick road trip to see them. It was so great to see them, get some hugs, and introduce Nora to poppa Pete. It was a very special day and we are so glad we have such great people in our lives. Love you guys.

Christmas 2011

And then before you knew it...Christmas was here. December was such a blur. Time went by so fast I could not believe I blinked and it was December 25th. Mike and I spent Christmas in West Chester with my parents, sister and her boyfriend. It was nice to be home to have some help and Nora received lots of TLC. I have so many pictures to choose from....here are some of my favorites.

A few nights before Christmas we all went out to dinner to one of our favorite restaurants.

Christmas Eve...look at the proud Auntie.

Christmas Day...I have so many to show you it would take at least 3 more blog posts. Santa brought daddy a new train set and Nora already loves it.

One Month Old

Our love bug at one month old. Looking back at these pictures I can't believe how tiny she was. She barley filled out the newborn outfits she was wearing. I miss my 6 pound bug.

First Photo Shoot- Missing Photos

Because I love Christmas I start picking out our Christmas card probably in October. ( i just can't help myself) I was so certain that Nora was going to be late and so I wanted to have our xmas card out before she arrived and then I would make an announcement just for our new baby. So I had our cards ordered and delivered and wouldn't you know that same week I had our baby. So now I was in a pickle.....do I sent out the xmas card without Nora in any pictures or create a new one? So I decided to keep our xmas card I had already created and add an announcement with the xmas card. So this meant I had to take some pictures of Nora, and fast in order to get it ordered,delivered and out on time. Yes I am aware that I am completely insane and this should have been the least of my worries with a new baby. But I was determined to do it.

So here are some pictures that didn't make the cut for her announcement. She was a good sport that day and I was able to get some good pictures of her. Enjoy!

I was obsessed with her adorable tiny feet!! Her little piggies were so cute!
