MY ADORABLE ANGEL AUDREY

Adorable Audrey

The girls are 11 months old today. So in honor of that, I am blogging about each of them. Here is a little info about Audrey:

Audrey is INDEPENDENT!! She will entertain herself for ages. And now that she is so mobile, the playroom is her oyster (so to speak!) She loves, loves, loves the Little People! And she is so funny about them...they have to be just so. For instance, on Noah's Ark no animal can be on the top. If she sees one there, she bee-lines over to remove it. Similar to her bee-line if she notices one of the pop-up animals is left up. It must immediately be closed!

Audrey with her Little People

She is very easily cracked up these days. And her laughing is so super big! Frequently she is laughing at Brooke (which melts your heart for sure!) However, she is much more reserved when we are out and about....unless she decides to talk. She has one volume: LOUD!!

Getting so cracked up!

Audrey has 8 teeth through her gums (but 3 of them are still little nubs.) Unfortunately for little Audrey over the past month or so she has gotten a SEVERE case of cradle cap. So D and I have been trying all sorts of remedies. Alas, it continued to look worse and worse. We finally went to the doctor on Thursday (weight update: 19lbs, 12 oz...looks like we will be able to turn both car seats around at one!). He agreed that it was awful (the blood and the puss were probably the kickers) and put her on some antibiotic, Neutragena T-Gel shampoo, and some Cortaid cream. It is already looking somewhat better (though her poor hair looks majorly greasy!)

Helping pack for our trip and to get the bath water just the right temp.

Audrey loves to crawl, but she is not that adventerous. When in large spaces (like play group or music class) she tends to stay pretty close to me. She is pulling up on everything now. And she is so cute just popping up everywhere. She is also very careful about getting back down and slowly sits herself back to the ground. She loves to "help" with the dishes. She has just begun to "cruise" along the couch and around the corner of toys (I am talking 2 steps).
