Happy Labo(u)r Day!

Audrey had a good day, squealing and talking and hanging out. She loves her new exe-saucer toy that her Papa bought her. She stands in it and bounces and jumps and has a great time. Here is a short video of her playing - it looks like we'll be able to use this for a long time since she's far from touching the floor even on the lowest setting.


One of my old friends from U.B.C. added a stop on her summer road trip through the south to come see us this week. We were very glad to see Karen again & to meet her boyfriend John.


Although we were cheering her on, Audrey didn't quite manage to roll from her back to front. She got really close though, and then finally did it at her babysitter's house later in the week. I did get to see her rolling first-hand today. She had only been rolling when I left the room, but now she is getting so good at rolling from front to back that she did it three times in a row today and seemed to have an easy time with it. It's amazing how much she has progressed. I watched one of our very early videos of her earlier today, and she could bare move at all. What a difference!

One of Audrey's other new talents is cooking! We're starting her young.




I thought I would also introduce Audrey to the girly hair-bow. I didn't think she would like it, but she didn't seem to mind. We still only kept it on for a minute.



And finally, (really finally) we put together Audrey's crib. She seemed to like it and had a good nap in it already today.





We hope you are all having a great long weekend!
