We're back!

Wow, I can't believe it's been almost a month! Audrey sure has kept me busy recently. She was quite sick at the beginning of the month, but is doing fine now. She had a double ear infection and scared us with a fever of 104 degrees along with a bad cough, but everything has cleared up now.

It seems like Audrey is changing faster all the time, and getting so mobile! She is very very close to walking, but doesn't want to let go quite yet. She practically runs around cruising though. She also loves to climb and stand on things, which is a little nerve-wracking. She started to climb out of her high chair today - scary!

Audrey is eating better and can handle almost any soft table food now. She definitely prefers table food to baby food, but she still eats a fair bit of baby food too.

Audrey's speech skills are improving quickly too. She can say all sorts of sounds, and babbles constantly. She can say Audrey pretty well, which I think is impressive, and says hi, bye, dada, daw for dog (kind of), "uh" for up. She's probably best at hi, bye-bye, and dada, and won't always say it, but she seems to understand more now.

Audrey is also getting better about understanding how things work, by trying out buttons and opening and closing things. Overall she is doing just great and is so much fun!

Probably my favorite newish thing that Audrey does, is "hiding" to pop out and surprise us. If you say "where is Audrey" she will duck down and hide, it's very cute :) She also will start clapping as soon as I begin to sing "If You're Happy and You Know it."

Here are some photos:

Here are some photos of Audrey playing around the house. Sometimes it seems like she won't stop moving! I made the mistake of holding her hand to walk at the store today, and she wouldn't let us pick her back up for a long time!










Hope everyone is having a great weekend! P.S. I'm uploading a couple of videos, should have them up by tomorrow!
