Evidentially I didn’t teach Audrey that it is not polite to point, because she has started pointing at things she wants to see more closely. When she points, she wants someone to take her to the item she is pointing at so she can touch it, inspect it, and often try to put it in her mouth. This weekend we went to the Lake of the Ozarks and spent the weekend with Grandma Lana and Papa Nance. Audrey would constantly point at the puppies and try to pet them. Unfortunately, her idea of petting is more like hitting, and the puppies don’t like it very much. Audrey found a captive dog in Sonny, because Sonny is old enough that she didn’t really feel like moving, so she would just let Audrey “pet” her, as long Audrey didn’t try to grab her face.
Audrey is at the age now where each day it seems like she is discovering or doing something new. She makes funny faces, eats new things, and makes new noises. She has also started understanding things that we say. When we say “bye bye” she waves. When we say bottle, she grins. It never ceases to amaze me how much she develops each and every day. The one thing that hasn’t changed is her desire to cuddle with her mama when she is tired or doesn’t feel good. I know that will change someday, but I’ll continue to enjoy it while I can.
