Week 19

Week 19 was a big week for Miss Audrey! We had several firsts, and she’s just growing so fast!

She’s gotten much more interested in playing- looking at herself in the mirror, hanging out on the floor, just chillin and watching what’s going on around her. And with Elena around, there’s LOTS going on all the time! :) And, of course, it makes for good pictures…

Love the ornery look!

This weekend we headed to Windermere with the youth group for The Edge (I’m trying to get a post up about that on the other blog, but I probably have 300 pictures, so I just don’t see that happening very quickly). Laney stayed at home with Grandma & Grandpa, but Audrey tagged along (she’s a lot less distracting than Elena, and, of course, I’m the food source!).

One big first from the weekend: Audrey slept on the top bunk! :)

So tiny in the big bed! She slept good, though- I had to wake her up in the morning! I love having good sleepers!

For part of the afternoon we have some free time, and it was so blazing hot that we hit the pool! It was Audrey’s second time swimming (she went at the family reunion), but it was the first time Daddy got to go with her! They sure had fun…

She HATED floating on her back!

And, of course, there was lots of hanging out with Uncle Charlie! :)

The REALLY big first this week was eating cereal for the first time!! She’s four months now, so we started her on some rice cereal, which is always entertaining!

Ready to eat! All smiles…

Daddy… what is Mommy doing to me?!

And the difference with having a big sister- she always wants to help!

She’s still not too sure about the whole cereal thing, but she’s getting better at it! It’s hard to believe she’s already big enough to eat cereal!!

Other than that, it was Audrey’s second week at daycare, and it went pretty well. She has gotten a bit of a cold, which is pretty much expected after her first week at daycare! It doesn’t seem to bother her too much, but the cough has caused her to lose her voice some, and it is just the most pitiful thing to hear her try to cry when she doesn’t really have a voice!

Before she lost it, she had really started to discover her voice before the cough, though… check out this video:

She’s really started just randomly screaming and “talking” even when she’s not unhappy. It has certainly increased the noise level in our house (not that it needed it!).

She continues to grow and change… can’t believe how fast it is all going!
