For the first three weeks of her life, Audrey stayed close to home. On Saturday, she finally got the chance to venture out of the house and experience some exciting new places. First, she went to a KA rush barbeque at the house of Tom and Liz Schelmbauer. She met some other little girls, including one just 8 weeks older than her. Much to our surprise, Audrey, at three weeks of age, weighs almost a 1/2 pound more than Abigail and definitely looks bigger. When we went to the doctor last week, she was in the 90th percentile for weight and the 95th percentile for height at her age. I guess this was just a more tangible manifestation of those statistics.
After the barbeque, Audrey got to go to the zoo. She saw hippos, elephants and tigers. We tried to see the monkeys, since Audrey has feet that clearly take after her primate ancestors. However, the gorillas and apes thought it was too hot and were hiding out of sight. After the zoo, Audrey had her first experience on The Hill at Zia's. It was a busy day, but Audrey did very well with minimal fussing. We are so blessed to have such a wonderful little girl and great friends that love having her around!
