Big strides for Norah

Norah has been making some remarkable strides lately....well, I guess, it's technically, a bunch of little things that add up to one big stride. As most of you know, we've been a little concerned about Norah missing various milestones. Well, she's still not talking (although the other day, Jim insists that when he asked the girls who wanted to do something fun....he and Lolo were stunned to hear Norah say "I do!"). In any event, Little Miss Negative Attention Span is slowly increasing her attention span. In the past week, Norah has managed to sit still for a couple of short books at a time. A big wow for Norah who previously couldn't sit still for a single page of a short book. She has also become increasingly snuggly. It's like a switch went off in her and she decided that she likes to be hugged and kissed and perhaps more sweet (to me anyway), she loves to give hugs and kisses. A very nice change. Of course, a lot of this is probably due to Norah copying everything her sister does (which irritates Lolo to the ends of the earth).
