Well, Audrey is two weeks closer to being 1!! I cannot believe how fast it has been going… Need to be thinking about a birthday party, but with Daddy in KY and everybody else here, I’m not too sure when (or where, since we’re trying to sell the house) it will be!
But, anyway, six weeks still to think of that… on to the past two weeks! Audrey has found several new favorite things to do in the last few weeks.
Unloading the bookshelf…
And unloading the diaper bag! Seriously, if the diaper bag is on the floor, she finds it and empties it. Not cool…
She has also discovered the dvd rack and the shoe rack, and enjoys emptying both of those, too! What is it with babies and emptying things?!
Anyway, it’s been a pretty fun 2 weeks… we had a birthday party for Sam and Mom/Grandma, at our house, since it was too snowy still to get up their driveway!
70ish candles between the two cakes… Audrey was enthralled!
Using Ruthie as a jungle gym… always a good time!
And passed out in the swing… partying is hard work!
(yes, I put her upright in the swing after I took the picture)
Audrey is so interested in everything now, and she’s constantly watching what we’re doing. If you need proof, check out this new trick:
If she gets a phone (or something vaguely phone shaped), it immediately goes up to her ear. Sometimes she starts “talking” in it, too. It’s pretty hilarious!
Biggest developmental milestone for the last few weeks is that Audrey is really standing on her own, and is trying pretty hard to start walking… help us!! :) She’s so funny, because she sometimes forgets to stand still, and will start kicking her feet, which, of course, means she falls over! But she is taking a step or two, so I think that she’s just going to take off any day now…
I thought she’d like pushing this around, so I brought it in from the garage. She likes it, and so does her sister!
In other news, it’s been a not-so-fun couple weeks in tooth world for Miss A. She’s been working on all four teeth across the top, which has made for one cranky baby, who doesn’t sleep very much, which makes for one cranky mommy! Combine that with some thrush, and we’ve had quite the time lately! Hopefully, she is getting over both now, and we’re praying her ears are clear when we go to the doctor next week. If they’re not, then they’ll start talking tubes… :(
But, despite her trouble with teeth and thrush, Audrey is an amazingly good-natured baby. She is typically full of smiles and loves to be held and played with, and LOVES her big sister!
So that’s the A-Lou update. We’re spending the weekend with Daddy this weekend, and we are so excited!!
