At age two it is hard to be camera shy. In fact one of “Nor Nor’s” favorite activities while I was home was to “see Nor Nor doing ____” (insert, sleeping on the pillow, eating ice cream outside, dancing, singing, etc.) I’ll share more on this later when I have more videos uploaded. But as a teaser:
The many faces of “Nor Nor”
Getting toast crumbs on gma’s bed…
Or, contently playing with playdough while still in our PJs…
Or practicing the hula in preparation for their ma/pa’s trip home from Hawaii…
Or, thoroughly enjoying the Barney ride at Chuck E Cheese’s
Or blowing out your candles on your 2nd bday…
These girls make my day. This is all I’ll post about them (for now! said with a scary and loud chuckle).

At a very young age I lost site of my mom in a local grocery store in Boulder, Colorado. I did, however, have the smarts to go to the customer service counter. The kind woman at the counter asked "What is your name little girl?" My reply: "Assi." The woman gave me a look like, "Are you playing with me you little devil?" but she proceeded to blast on the loudspeaker the "We have a lost Assi at the front of the store." Customers throughout the store gagged and giggled, but my mom knew exactly who the woman was referring to: the mullet haired little girl with a tongue too big for her mouth, wearing a leotard, skirt, tights, and jelly shoes (with florescent green laces in them...even though they didn't need the laces). A shy little character for whom every little detail in life was a huge thing. I am pleased to report that today I am able to fully pronounce Allison (aka Ali), but the Assi pseudonym has always stuck, evolving into Aszi. As for the shy little character for whom every little detail in life was a huge thing? Some things never change.
