Audrey's first day at her new daycare

Today Audrey started a new daycare. It is a home daycare so she is with kids of all ages and she loved it. When I picked her up today she was smiling and they said she was "the best baby they have seen in a LONG time." She slept, ate, and played well. Way to go Audrey!
Also, I have to share my Etsy find. Check out this sweet onesie I got for Audrey.
I am absolutely in love with Etsy. I am going to buy an "ism" book from my friend Nessa too. They are so neat. Check out her Etsy store.
I also got a shopping cart/high chair cover on sale. I am soooo impressed with it. The workmanship on it is amazing. I can't wait to use it. I got the groovy guitar fabric so that I can use it for baby #2, even if its a boy.

A good day for pictures

Audrey was full of smiles and giggles today, I got tons of pictures. The diaper ones are from this morning and the dress ones are from this evening. She has been loads of fun today. =)

My big girl...

...is officially pulling up. She did it a couple of times when mom was here and we thought it might be a fluke but she is consistently doing it now. In fact, that is pretty much all she wants to do. She can't pull up on the furniture because there is nothing for her to grab, but she pulls up on the laundry basket (with me holding the other side) and my hands.
Yesterday was an awful day. She was a whiny mess all day long. Today she totally redeemed herself. We had an awesome day today.
Audrey has a new love....sweet potato puffs. She absolutely loves those things. I think I might love them too because they keep her entertained for at least an hour. That gives me time to fix my dinner and eat it. We chat while she picks those little pieces off her high chair tray. It is so darn cute.
Goodness...can you tell I was cooking some bacon for my breakfast?
She loves this new toy. It plays the ABC's and animal sounds when you spin it.
Snack time yesterday. The bib totally described our day yesterday.

Peaches

Audrey had peaches for the first time tonight. You would think they would be a hit because of her last name and peaches are just good. Well....
Do you think she liked them???

Doctor Visit Stats...


Well, Poppy was really tired today so she asked me to put Audrey's stats from her doctors visit on here. She weighs 15lbs 9oz which is an 8lb gain from her birth weight, and they measured her height at 24.5 inches, but Poppy thinks they measured her wrong and she's going to do it herself later. She didn't tell me her percentages or her head circumference so I can't give you those stats. Maybe she'll update you with those later. She got her 6 month shots also and from what I've heard, she didn't like them at all. Poppy also signed her up for Mommy and Me swimming lessons at the Copperas Cove public pool starting on July 6th. It's 8 days of swimming total so they should have some fun doing that. Well, I think that's all the info I have for you. Take Care.

Oh no....

I accidentally deleted all of the photos on my old posts. I will do my best to fix it but it may take a long while. No promises either.

Audrey's new trick

She puckers up her lips and blows out thru her nose. It is really funny.

It's been 6 months already

Can you believe it? Audrey is 6 months old today. She has changed so much.
This is her 6 months ago.

And this is her now.

She is so cute in both pictures but isn't amazing how much she has changed?
She eats solid foods now. She has had: Avocado, sweet potato, peas, butternut squash, oatmeal, rice cereal, plums, carrots, apples, and pears. She is starting to try to drink out of a cup too but she is not that great at it yet.

She sits up well on her own. She spends most of her day playing while sitting.

She is happy (almost) all of the time. She is lots of fun to play with and she always helps mommy around the house.

She can hold herself up in a standing position. She is getting so big.
She puts herself to sleep every night after bath and nursing. She usually is in bed by 7:30. She usually sleeps until around 4 and wakes up to eat. Then she is up for the day around 7. She takes two 1-2 hour naps on most days, sometimes more and sometimes less.
She is wearing size 2 diapers, 6-9 mo sleepers, 0-3 mo or 3-6 mo dresses and onesies, and 3-6 mo pants.
Her favorite toys are Sophie the giraffe, her keys, and her snuggle bunny. She loves baths and swimming and is going to be a total water baby.
She can say: Da-da-da-da, Ma-ma-ma-ma, and lots of other things like that but they aren't nearly as exciting as Mama and Dada. (We know she doesn't know what she is saying but it still melts your heart.)
I will report back to you after her check-up on Wednesday for her height, weight, and head circumference.

I've got the funk!

Sorry I haven't posted in a while but I have an abscess on my face and I have been in lots of pain. No worries friends. It has been drained (I went under the knife) and now its oozing all kinds of lovely stuff. I look absolutely amazing. ;) I am feeling lots better too thanks to my friends Fentanyl and Percocet.
Love you all!
