Last week was yet another exciting week with Audrey. This may not be all that exciting to most people, but we are finally able to put Audrey's hair up into a pony tail, and just today she wore pig tails! It is so much fun to divulge into all things girl...pretty dresses, shoes, and finally pretty hair bows. Even bigger news she also took her first steps on Friday night, with no encouragement. She was holding onto our recliner and I was sitting a few steps away on our couch and she just let go of the chair and took 3 quick steps over to me. Of course it took me by surprise, and we made a big deal out of it. So now whenever we actually encourage her to try she gets so excited she can only get a step and a half before she falls, but it's a start! I also am fully aware that her walking is just going to make my days a little more challenging, but it's still so exciting! On Saturday she surprised me once again, when she all of the sudden climbed my stairs...there was no excitement this time. I had run up stairs to grab something, and usually she'll crawl over to the landing and wait for me to come down, but this time when i went to come back down stairs she was almost at the top, and my heart sank. What if she had fallen? Thank God she didn't, but still a little to scary. I guess it's time for baby gates! She also is starting to talk; she has been saying mama, and dada but as of the last couple of days she says up, and baba for bottle. It is scary how close to 1 she is getting, and the changes that are occurring daily, however we are enjoying watching our beautiful princess turn in to a toddler!
