Nora Turns 3!

We can't believe that our little baby is 3! It was fun to celebrate Nora's birthday. We had big plans... but we had to make some changes. Nora wanted to go swimming for her birthday, and so on Saturday we invited our friends and family to meet us at the Rec Center for some swimming. Then we were going to go to the Owens' house for cupcakes. About 45 minutes before we were going to leave to go swimming, I took the cake out of the oven, and turned to get the cupcakes to go in. When I turned back, Nora was trying to be helpful to push the oven rack back in... it was so hot...

So her little hand was burnt. We rushed around trying to get her to stop being in pain. The only thing we could do to make it better was hold her, with her hand in a cup of water... while moving it around. We sat that way for about 2 hours. We called everyone and told them we would not be going swimming. We still met later to have cupcakes. As soon as we got to Kenna and Grandma, Nora was fine and said her hand didn't hurt anymore. It was blistered and red for a long time, but she never complained about it again. Grandma and Kenna make everything better. 

Then the next morning she got to open her presents.

 She got a lot of good stuff. We are so happy that she is happy, and the burn wasn't too bad.

We rounded the day out with dinner with our friends, since we had to cancel swimming with them. Thanks H family for making us dinner, and for singing to Nora!
