Charleston

Unfortunately, when we arrived in Charleston, our camera battery was dead, so check out Ann and Eric's blog and Dave and Erin's blog for pictures of Ronnie's memorial service.

The Bridge Road Bistro for lunch...


And of course, the toy store that is right down the road from grandmother's house...


Nora had fun playing with Lakin and his cats...



Nora eating some pizza with her grandmother...


and some watermelon (Nora's favorite)...


We got to see the Busse family at one of John's soccer games...



Nora and Nana...

Eric and Ann updated their blog with some pictures from Ronnie's funeral.

Mealtimes are still messy

Nora got some new sand toys yesterday from her grandmother, Eli. There are lots of sandboxes at the playgrounds around here.

For Silje's birthday, Nora put on her new dress from Ronnie and Tammy.

After taking three or four steps here and there for the last month or so, Nora finally got up the confidence and took a walk across the entire living room. :-)

What did pappa do?

Nora likes pushing her little cart around, but sometimes it's more fun to climb into it.

Nora and her diaper bag.

Nora had a particular liking for this sunchair.

The weather was very nice in Bergen. Nora and Silje went home for Silje's cousin's confirmation this last week.

Somebody went through her grandparents CD collection.
