Dip anyone?

So.. it's been a crazy last day or so. We declared the weekend a "no moping zone" and we celebrated.



We had tea parties.


We played Dress Up


We took Dad to the airport and "I run away." Mom and Dad told me if I kept running away, we'd have to go home early... and we did.

This is the time Dad's flight was supposed to take off Monday afternoon (I know the picture leave something to be desired. Mom is still figuring out the new camera.)

When we got home, Mom was at a loss for what to do with me or feeling lost or something like that. So she had Dad read me some books. I know what you're thinking. Wasn't Dad at the airport? I guess he was, but he was also in the TV! Dad must have read me a half a dozen books.

At one point I said "Dad! I have chapstick!" and "Good job Daddy!" Mom explained he taped himself reading these books while I was sleeping the last couple weeks. It's awesome Dad. Way to go! Here's a snapshot of me watching. Thrilling I know.


Ok, so I look a little down here. I was a little down, but I perked up today.

TODAY I had fun outside at daycare! This is literally the first time I haven't cried and wanted to go back in. On the car ride home, I ate chapstick! (Don't tell Mom. She warned me it would make me sick.)

Mom and I got a surprise skype call when we got home tonight. Unfortunately Mom wasn't ready to skype. The microphone wasn't working and the camera wasn't set up and I was trying to eat cucumbers with ranch dip (and so was Cheeto). Sorry you couldn't hear us Dad. I'm especially sorry about getting dip on the computer. I was just trying to give you some. Call us anytime. We have it figured out now.

  2. Nora, it's so special that you can watch and hear daddy read you stories when he's half way around the world. What a great daddy!

  4. Hey

    I love the blog post! It was a really disorientating experiance last night. I was up because of jet lag, it was midnight, and I could see Nora trying to drink the bottle of ranch dressing but I could not hear anything. It was like some sort of movie of the absurd.

    I love you guys!
