Norah & Company: Labor Day Weekend

For Labor Day weekend we went up to North Dakota. There was so many people I wanted to meet in just three days! While we were up there my aunts Laurie and Liz threw a baby shower for me. I got lots of neat things and some nice warm clothes for this winter. All the Breidenbach ladies were so nice and they loved cuddling with me so I was happy about that! I shoudl've known I'd come out of that shower with a SIOUX HOCKEY jersey! My grandma bought me that and she says she'll take me to a couple games next year.

This is my great-aunt Laurie. She's my mom's god-mother.

This is a bit dark but, that's Cindy holding me and cousin Karlie standing behind.

Whitney got engaged one day after this was taken and, she's asked me to be in her wedding as a flower-girl! Isn't that exciting?!?!

Devin is so nice, I can't wait to see her again!

Great-grandma Lottie just loved to hold me and sing "lou-lou." She sang this to my mom and grandma when they were babies!

This was towards the end of the night. After the shower we rushed home to see Grandpa, Danny, and Laura!

These are great friends of mommy's. Beth, Melissa, and Stella even came to my baptism on Saturday!

We also got to go visit Mildred on Friday. She's always been a close friend to the Skalet's and we wish we could see her more often.

After mom took these pictures, dad wheeled Mildred down to the cafeteria for lunch. All the ladies and nurses thought I was so cute..... a spitting image of dad they said!

On Saturday, grandma Connie and grandpa Mike had a reception for me out at their farm. Then, that evening in church I was baptized! Mom was very nervous about my reaction to the water since she'd witnessed first hand how loud I can scream during baths at home. I guess I impressed everyone though, just one short-lived cry and that was it.

Great-grandma Lottie bought me this beautiful baptism dress, don't I look like an angel?

Father Cavanaugh baptized me and, just over a year before this he married mommy and daddy!

The church gave me a little rosary, a baptismal candle, and that beautiful red rose that mom's holding.

Danny and Stella are my godparents

Four-generations.

Sunday was a nice relaxing day out at the farm. Some cousins came over and played some games outside, it was such a beautiful day! I started sleeping through the night(10pm-7am) while we were up there and I've been sleeping that ever since.
