Just for the record: Nora can point to her eyes, ears, nose (the finger goes all the way up, just to be thoroughly clear), mouth, hair, belly, knees, feet, and pee-pee.
She can also back into a chair to sit down-- a big improvement over the old climb-onto-chair-stand-up-turn-around-ease-down-into-sitting-position maneuver.
She can climb onto just about anything-- she is a true monkey child. Part of me wants to pull her down from dangerous objects, and the other part wants to watch and see how high she can go.
She can get her feet into my wool clogs and walk around in them, although if she tries to turn, she walks out of them and gets mad.
She can open a door by turning the doorknob, not necessarily a great thing for us.
She can run-- though she still appears on the verge of sprawling over, so this makes me nervous.
She can take off her shoes and socks, which she does at the earliest opportunity.
And she can walk down the stairs people-style, as long as she's holding my hand, rather than backing down them on her knees.

Some additional achievements:
She likes for her hands to be clean so she holds them out for you to get the "yucky" stuff off
She can almost blow her nose--or at least she gets the general idea
She is really good at helping to get her dressed, especially getting her arms into the proper sleeves
She can correctly identify which items are mama's and which daddy's, and she likes to point that out to me when I babysit, just so I won't take anything.
Keep up the good work Baby Nora!
We miss you!
Ollie and Gus
