As the summer comes to a close, I look back and realize that we have been blessed to already have so many great memories with our beautiful daughter. As Audrey grows and begins to show more of her own unique personality, we are having more fun making new memories. Audrey reacts so much more to everything around her. Her favorite things right now are the dogs. She will watch everything they do and especially loves it when they play fetch. She giggles every time they bring the toy back to us. She is also quite fond of "bouncy chairs." She bounces and talks to us, which at this point can sound very similar to the sounds she makes when she is fussy. She also reaches out and tries to grab everything, including hair and jewelry.
As much fun as we have had this summer, we are looking forward to fall, Christmas, and all of the other firsts that Audrey will have over the next 7 months. The next big milestone will probably be eating baby food. Right now she is on a diet of breastmilk with baby rice cereal once a day. She is very close to sitting up on her own too; if we put her in an upright position, she can sit by herself for a long time, but she still cannot move herself into a seated position on her own. She is also getting better at scotting herself around on her tummy. It's only a matter of time before she becomes mobile!
