Bates Nut Farm / Week 45

I found my favorite baby hat for this stage! Such a cute little face hiding under a cute little hat!

Let it goooo, let it go!

Clara with her friends!

Clara in my favorite little hat <3! She picked it up after Audrey threw it next to her in the car :).

On Friday, we took a family trip to Bates Nut Farm! Clara loved all the animals!

I loved the peacock!

Daddy wanted to share his new hat with Audrey.

She wanted a cuddle...

This is a picture of the girls playing together. Sadly, right after this picture, Clara closed the mailbox door on Audrey's little fingers. Daddy saved her, but she was sad.

More cuddles with baby Audrey!

On Saturday, we went to Clara's bff from school's birthday party!

And on Sunday, mommy had a mom's night out with some friends!

So fun!

Daddy took the girls to Target and did so well taking care of them!

Hi sweetie!

Audrey loves to stand right now!

And eat oranges

And Clara loves to smile!

Audrey finally made it over the step this week!

And she's coming into the kitchen!

"Dobby made it all the way!" said Clara when Audrey made it to the kitchen. She likes to call Audrey Dobby :).

Hi cutie!

Gemmy loves Audrey!

Happy 45 weeks sweet girl! We love you and your sister so!

Family Time! / Week 44

Clara has been so funny lately! Her newest thing is making sure that Dory is sleeping on the pillow next to her during naps and night.

And lovey too, is of course tucked under her arm. 

She still loves school! She's eating ice cream to celebrate someone else's birthday!

Audrey on the other hand, has a sock on her head.... placed there by Clara. Mommy taught Clara the line from Harry potter about dobby with a sock... and now Audrey is Dobby.

Someone loves to pull to standing!

Especially when sister is there to encourage her!

Poor Audrey had a fever and just wanted cuddles from mommy :(.

And Clara has the most beautiful face!

She wanted to eat her sandwich in the Costco box. Why not!

Audrey telling me that her toys are too far away... or that she wants me to pick her up.

Great Grammy and Audrey's special moment!

Clara's first attempt at golf! She was pretty good!

Audrey's just a too fun to play with!

All the kids together! Ozzie loved playing with Audrey!

He even got down on the floor to crawl next to her and encourage her! So great!

We've had Sophia for 5 years now! First fur baby!

Mommy and Audrey!

More of Jordi's party!

On Sunday, we skipped church and went to the Safari Park! Both girls still have some pretty throaty coughs and it just wouldn't have been good for them or the other kids. 

It was a lot of fun! First time for Audrey at the Safari park!

And Clara's second time at the dentist! She loved her ballooon! 

Mommy took her to the McDonald's play place for a treat afterwards!

And some cuddles for my princess!

Sweet Audrey!

Audrey getting a litte bit of ice cream!

44 weeks! So big! So fast!

Audrey 10 months!

Audrey is 10 months old today! She's a total riot and makes us smile and laugh all the time. She also doesn't sit still anymore!

But oh is she cute! I tell her every day that she just keeps getting cuter. This month she's done a few new fun things! She loves standing and can pull up to standing with a little bit of help. She also pushed herself to sitting position by herself!! Go Audrey! She is so clever and can communicate so clearly even without many words! Mostly, when I am feeding her baby food, she shows her abilites best. For example, when I give her a spoonful of something, she pushes her head way back to look at the food before eating it, to make sure she wants to eat it. If she doesn't, she closes her mouth tight and turns her head to the side, over and over again. She can ask for "more" and signs "all done" and makes loud noises if I get up from my seat and she's not done eating. She is so funny and so loud and so wonderful!
