New List

I know I've been a poor excuse for a blogger lately. We've all been recovering from being sick and otherwise busy. It is definitely time for a new list of current favorites, and more pictures of the world's cutest little girl! (Note: Keep in mind that God, Eric, and Audrey top my list of current favorites at all times in that order. I don't list them because they're just, given!)


1. Twilight. Thanks to my sister Kim, I am irreversibly hooked on this series of books by Stephanie Meyer. The movie made after the first book, comes out on November 21st. Whenever I get hooked on a book or movie, I research every possible tidbit about it online, and this is no exception. I'm waiting with bated breath for the library to have a copy come available of the next book in the series, New Moon!
2. Grey's Anatomy. I started watching it from the beginning, Season 1, and I am totally hooked. Despite all of the "who is sleeping with who" drama! Sad, I know. The characters are endearing somehow, and I want to keep watching to see what happens to them. I'm in the middle of Season 3 at the moment.
3. Hot apple cider. With a dash of cinnamon.
4. Walks in the beautiful fall air with my friends Abby and Laura and all of our kiddies, Nolan, Ava, and Audrey of course! :) I also love my walks with just Audrey, in the stroller or backpack. Here she is bundled up last week:


5. Making Audrey laugh. It's hysterical to play peek-a-boo with her, tickle her tummy and her toes, and watch her giggle. She is sitting up very well now, which is great. She loves to be upside down too, as you can see.



There are more, but I need to sleep! Here are some more cute pictures though, just for fun.

First real bath in the bathtub!

Sitting in her high chair, waiting
for some yummy rice cereal:

Aw.

I'm tired, so I'm just posting a picture. It's too cute to not post. I took it earlier today - she is 6 months old already! I just love my little girl.


I will post again soon, I know it's been a very long time and I'm sad about that. Also, happy "100 posts" to me! :D I'm such a proud blogger!

Real food... Sort of!

The time has come for Audrey to venture into the vast world of solid food. I thought I'd share the process of her first meal with you, my blogger friends! Eric snapped pictures while I helped Audrey get rice cereal all over her face.

Anticipating her first "meal"...

She was fairly sure she wouldn't like it.

Here goes...

Hmm, not too bad...

Give me more, Mom! As a matter of fact,
I'll take the spoon and feed myself, thanks!

The finished look. Not as messy as we had anticipated! Yay!

Here are a few random pictures.
Spending some quality time with Daddy:

Reclining comfortably.
All she needs is a Mt. Dew and the remote...

Here is a short video I took with my cell phone. She had been doing this all weekend and after awhile it was just... funny. Am I mean to think so!? Heh. I think she was about to eat right here, and she was getting impatient.. you might need to turn up your volume a bit.
