Audrey’s 1st Birthday

I can’t believe my baby girl is already 1. She is walking now and even more so than the boys, I can see her growing up right before my very eyes. For her birthday, we had a fun family night together, and the boys just loved celebrating with their little sister. She had lost a little weight since her 9 month check up but grew in height a lot, so she is now in the 50% for both height and weight. She has had such a go with the flow attitude…but she also is super curious and especially enjoys the refrigerator, toilet, and anything she can climb on. She says Dada the most, followed by Mama, and Up and Bye-Bye. She also blows kisses and claps, and she started doing the high pitched scream thing (Trish, I know you remember Clark doing that oh so well) when she clearly wanted something, so I taught her my one sign that I teach all the kids in order to say please before they can actually say it, and it cut down on the scream altogether. For her birthday, we got her one of those Fisher Price doors with all the bells and whistles. Her brothers seemed to enjoy it as much as she did, and grandma and grandpa Nielson got her cute pjs! Happy Birthday Baby Girl!
