Audrey's first birthday party so much fun!
Audrey enjoyed her cake! But she was pretty tentative about actually eating it until mommy picked it up for her. Then she was excited!
I was shocked that her shirt wasn't dirtier than this!
Audrey also had her one year pediatrician's check up! The pediatrician said Audrey does a lot of things he doesn't expect one year olds to do. For example, she can follow commands like "High Five", "Clap Clap", "Blow Kiss", "Kiss Kiss", "Wave" ... She can also answer questions with words and sounds, "How big is Audrey?" "So Big" while she raises her hand! and "What does a puppy say?" "Oof oof" and What does a monkey say? "Ooh Ooh Ahh Ahh" She also knows where her nose and ears are! He said all of these usually come closer to 15/18 months.
I also described how she can hold her own against Clara when battling over toys. He was also surprised by this! He said the younger siblings usually come out of their shell around 18 months and up. I said oh no, Audrey already holds on to toys and screams if Clara tries to take a toy she is playing with. She also pushes people away, their hands & faces if they are closer to her than she is happy with. She also throws down her sippy of milk because she's not a huge fan right now... :P
Finally, we were driving home from the pediatrician's office, she had received 3 shots, and had 3 bandaids on her thighs. Within a few minutes, I heard some upset shrieking from the back. Audrey had a bandaid stuck to one finger and was really frustrated she couldn't get it off. We were still in the parking lot, so I stopped and reached back and freed her hand. Then we kept driving. After a few more minutes, I heard more upset shrieking. Now she had one bandaid stuck to each hand and she was flapping her hands like a bird! It was soo funny to me, but she was not as excited about the bandaids :). We got them off but the mental image has stayed with me.
Audrey you are amazing and you have so much personality! Mommy loves you so much! Happy Birthday!
