Bookworm

It always amazes me when I watch Audrey and see just how much she has grown.  This week, I have realized that she was not crawling much at all anymore.  Even if she is still a little wobbly, she is clearly starting to prefer walking to crawling.  This weekend, we visited Rolla for the annual St. Patrick's Day celebration.  Before we went, I was concerned that Audrey would be hard to handle because she would be wanting to crawl around.  This was not a problem, however, because all she wanted to do was walk. 

Audrey has also taken a keen interest in books.  One night last week, she walked into the bedroom, got a book off of the nightstand, brought it into the living room, and handed it to her dad.  She happily sat in his lap as he read a story from the book to her.  At daycare, they said that she will get a book and sit down with it in the floor and start "reading" to the class.  If no one is paying attention, she will talk louder and louder until someone begins to pay attention.  I hope she maintains this interest as she gets older.   We will read her books as long as she'll let us!
