Nearing 1 year

As Audrey is quickly aproaching one year I thought I would jot down her updates:
~Teeth:4 top, 4 bottom and 2 bottom molars
~Talking:says, mommy, daddy, baby, puppy, Audrey, down, uh oh, ya, wow, waves while saying Hi/bye
~Mobile:into everything, crawling all over, climbing on to everything, walking along furniter, can stand by herself for quite awhile
~Sleeping:bedtime around 8:30 and wake around 7:30
~Food: loves everything, Favorite:blueberries, beans, chicken, peas, and green beans. She hasn't eaten babyfood for several months. The real stuff is much more fun.
~Comunication:Signs please, signs for washing up, yells to get her way, lets you know in one way or another what she wants.

I love my little girl. She definetly is a lot more sassy than Preston but hey, they are all so different and that is what makes it so exciting.

Audrey's 1st Birthday party

Audrey's actually birthday is September 8th but due to everyones schedule and a sugery coming up in the family this was the only weekend that worked out. Audrey's birthday was a Strawberry patch theme and we all had so much fun. Thank you everyone for the fun gifts and for coming to celebrate with us.
Audrey had fun getting so much attention from everyone and as you can see she loved her cake. The girls had fun with all the strawberry shortcake things like, tattoos, sunglasses and games. The boys had fun going through the woods searching for their swords.

Como zoo

Jerett and Denae went with us to Como zoo yesterday. We had so much fun looking at all of the animals. The orangutans were by far all of our favorite. The little baby was so much to watch. He tried swinging from a rope but got scared and started to scream and his dad had to rescue him and then started to carry him around on his back. We then headed to my cousins house for a pizza dinner.

Chaos indoor waterpark

The other day we took the kids to a indoor waterpark and we had a blast. Preston was able to go on one of the big slides with us on a double tube. This particular slide goes outside too. Craig went on one of the body slides too but he couldn't get me to do it amongst all of his bribes. Their is a awesome toddler spot where Preston enjoyed going down slides and a lazy river where you get drenched that we all got to enjoy.

Camping

Craig, Preston and Jerett had a fun time camping on our land the other night. They really ruffed it........TV, movie and all! I have to say I was a little jealous staying in the house so the next night we camped out as a family. Preston wanted to watch Star Wars so we watched it in the tent and Audrey got a kick out of it.She was laughing and going wild over it. She did great for the first time camping. She made it till 4am when Preston woke up because he had to go to the bathroom. Audrey and I then headed in for the rest of the night due to the cold weather.

My 27th Birthday

My birthday is actually tomorrow but Craig works this weekend so we celebrated on Friday morning. Craig bought a cake and put 27 candles on it!!!! Preston had fun singing Happy birthday to me a million times and Audrey thought we were all silly wearing hats and kept looking at us like we were nuts. Craig bought me a gift certificate from a Aveda hair salon:)Thanks sweetie................for everything. And for being with me for 7 of my birthdays now!

Walker

Audrey has been wanting to stand all the time since she can pull herself up. The other day I pulled out this walker and she had fun pushing it back and forth. Now she just needs to learn to step with it.
