Audrey update

As second time parents, we unfortunately find that we do indeed take fewer pictures of Audrey so this update will be filled with pictures only of our sweet second born!

Audrey turned 14 months old this week and she is a girl on the move! She is walking all over the place and is quite proud of herself. She is also using new words every week. Her latest words include book, baby, belly, bye-bye, apple, no, mine, this, and that. However, she mostly says mama (meaning any adult who takes care of her or "I want something") and nana (food or eat). She is also our very good eater and puts her eight teeth to good use! She is still allergic to soy and dairy so we have to get creative at mealtime in order to exclude three major food groups now (dairy, soy, and egg). She L.O.V.E.S. any type of meat, especially Mimi's pot roast and chicken. She also loves her special cookies; we keep the box on top of the refrigerator and every night after dinner she points up there and calls, "That, that, that, that,...", until we get them down. She is a strong-willed baby and she wants what she wants! There have been a few time-outs already :-)

Audrey apparently hasn't gotten the spatial thing down yet! She spent an entire day trying to figure out how she could sit in Ellie's rocking chair with this toy in the seat next to her. After many, many, many attempts, she still couldn't understand why they couldn't both fit and boy was she upset!

She has become a bit obsessed with her belly!

This is her baby (which is actually Ellie's baby). She absolutely loves this baby! She sleeps on top of it every night and wants it with her most of the day.

Looking out the window at Lori and trying to tell her to come back inside....
