Bubbles & Beer

Blowing bubbles for Nora is quickly becoming the standard for Sam keeping Nora entertained while I'm making dinner. The other night Sam was so busy blowing bubbles that he forgot to take his freshly poured beer out with him. Being the great wife that I am, I took Sam's glass of beer out to him so he could enjoy the beverage while he entertained Nora. This was a wonderful idea up until he dunked the bubble wand into the beer....

As it turns out, beer doesn't make bubbles.

Oh, and soap in beer isn't very tasty (says Sam).

What a bust!

Bubbles & Giggles

Earlier this week Nora let loose the first of her giggles while I had her on the floor kissing her belly. The soft laugh was the sweetest sounds I've ever heard. Music to mom's ears for sure!

Today I decided to try blowing bubbles just to see what kind of reaction we could get out of Nora. The first few minutes Nora would start shaking her whole body in excitement, her mouth would gather into a tight "O", and her head would move side to side tracking all of the floating suds. Eventually the excitement turned into giggles. I'd say the bubbles were a hit.

Super Powers

I'm doing a bit of research that requires some creativity and I'm hoping I can get some input from those of you who read my blog. Here's the question: If you could have ANY super power in the world, what would it be? Please post a comment with your reply.
