My Eight Month Old Girl

It's been a nice week. Chris and I both have vacation and we've just been hanging out, doing some things here and there, and watching our daughter grow and learn right before our eyes!

In recent weeks she's started to stand up on things more and more and travel around the room by crawling. She will stand, but no steps yet. Tonight at my mom and dad's house she looked like she was thinking so hard about taking a step. She was at the couch, standing, and then she'd let go and balance. Not able to take a step yet, she'd finally bend over and use her arms to let herself down. She also reached a new level of silliness tonight. Chris and I got back from a movie and Audrey was reallly hyper with my parents (we think they gave her fudge, haha) She was totally playing with Chris. She was in crawling position then she'd look at him and giggle, then he start to go after her and she'd take off crawling. Then she's stop and look back at him and repeat this over and over as if to say "come and get me!" Then they got in a tickling match, as he tickled her, she bat at his face to try to fend him off. It was sooooo funny. Ya kinda had to be there, but it's fun to see her learn to play and be silly and understand what's funny. It's a blast watching her learn.

She's also starting to pick up little cereal bits and put them in her mouth on her own.

We're exicted for her 1st Christmas and hope all the out of town family members can get here! Snow, why this week!?

Here's some pictures from this week....
