I have treasured my time off with Audrey, I'm just sad it's gone by so quickly. There are so many wonderful little things that she does that I don't want to forget. She is changing so quickly, and I'm sure I've already forgotten so much.
So, here are a few things I'd like to remember:
- her little goat noises when she was a newborn
- her cackling little laugh when she was smaller
- her big mmmmmmmmmwha, kisses right now
- she has just learned to say please, and when there is something she really wants (like marshmallows) that she shouldn't have, she'll say, "pease. pease. pease." Almost irresistible.
- the way she runs around the house, always in a hurry, but still not completely steady.
- she'll run into the room to tell you something very complicated that requires a lot of hand guestures, but despite her excellent speech, we have no idea what she's saying
- she'll sit down on any little ledge, wherever we are, and then pat the spot next to her and say "mommy sit" or "daddy sit."
Audrey is still doing fabulously well, and I just love seeing her develop and grow. Her vocabulary is growing rapidly each day, and she still has a wonderful, cheerful personality, although she's definitely asserting her independence more and more.
We hope you all had a very Happy Christmas & New Year.
