Audrey has been pretty fussy these past few days. We actually took her to the doctor on Friday because she had a slight fever and runny nose, was refusing bottles, and was just uncharacteristically fussy. To our great surprise, the diagnosis was teething. We hoped it would pass quickly, but here it is two days later, and the babe is still not feeling well. She is quite a sight to behold right now with the stream of drool, boogers and nasty bruise on her cheek. The bruise is a result of her being too quick for her mommy and tumbling off the bed yesterday while I was folding laundry at the foot of the bed.
Since she is still running a slight fever this morning, we are letting her be nakey-baby. It is highly entertaining for us, because she doesn’t like to crawl on the hardwood with bare legs, so she does a bear crawl. She can stand on her own and take a few steps, so I am surprised she doesn't just muster up the determination to walk. Her friend at daycare, Kylie, is walking on her own now, so I know it is only a matter of time before Audrey finds the balance to go from place to place on two feet. I have no doubt that by this summer we'll be chasing her around the yard at both of the lake houses. It is going to be fun trying to keep Audrey from getting too close to the edge of the boat dock. Is it summer yet?
