Audrey Jo is 5mo. old! She's achieved some new things lately. You know about the rice cereal thing; that is still going well. A day shy of 5mo. Audrey officially sat alone for several mintues! Then one night later at some point she flipped from her back to her tummy in her crib. I found her in the morning on her tummy! It was hilarious! Now she does if often and really well. But not yet on the floor while she's playing, I guess she prefers her back when she's playing and her tummy when sleeping. Now when I put her in her crib, she grabs her little bunny blanket, turns on her left side, puts her left thumb in her mouth and the blanket to her cheek and shuts her eyes! It's so cute. I sucked my left thumb too. I'm not sure if this is good or bad, but what can I do about it?!

Licking the bowl clean!
My first bath in the big person tub! Sitting up!
My first roll over to my tummy!
My Great Grandma Mary and Grandpa Gale went to Alaska and got me this cool hat! I love it!
So Audrey is just a blast. I love taking her to restaurants and watching her so interested in everything on the table. We tried her out in a high chair with a toy in front of her on the table, she did pretty good. She wants everyone's food! She's just a fun girl! She giggles more easily and "talks" a lot, especially for Chris. We just started noticing that she's kinda hitting things, like wacking toys and surfaces hard with her palm, haha, what a goof.
Well, I like talking about Audrey, but in terms of Chris and I, were are also just fine. We're both having jobs issues and would like new ones, but we shall wait and try to be patient and content for we know and trust the One who has a plan. We're having fun being parents and watching our beautiful daughter grow. We love sharing her with people and seeing how much she is loved. We so appreciate everyone who helps us with watching her and such, you know who you are! We joined a small group at church and that, so far, seems like quite a great thing. I'm also going to start going to MOPS (mother's of pre-schoolers). The moms meet together and there's child care for the "Moppets" as they're called. It's at my church, but not limited to members of our church, so we'll see how that goes tomorrow. Chris and I are also in a co-ed softball league. I have to miss a bunch of games, because of work, but I had a lot of fun in the ones I was in! It's fun to do something like that with Chris.
Ok, I better leave it at last before Audrey wakes up and you all get intimidated by the blog's length!
