Today, thurs, 26 June, Audrey took her first real steps. We were practicing & she made the effort, not just falling at me! So far it’s been about 4-5 steps at a time, but she is VERY excited about it. I’m sure she’ll be running tomorrow! Well, at least by monday!!!
In other news… I nursed Audrey for the last time on sat, the 21st. Sun was easy to skip b/c our schedule gets off anyway. On mon, I gave her her lunch, changed her diaper, & instead of nursing, I just put her right to bed. She looked at me a little confussed, but went to sleep just fine. I am glad this wasn’t a struggle. I’m a little sad about not having to do this any more, but I am also really happy to not have to do this any more!
On wed(25th), Susie taught Audrey what a giraffe “says” (sticking your tongue out like you’re eatting leaves) 2 or 3 days earlier, Kevin had taught Audrey what an elephant says (putting your lips together & blow/spitting? I don’t know how to explain it really)
Before that, I had gotten Audrey to show w/her finger that she is one.
I don’t think I mentioned this before, but her top 2 teeth are SLOWLY (and I do mean slow!) working on coming in. It has caused Audrey to become crabby often for the last going on 2 weeks now. If there is something that will make them come in faster, I’d really like to know about it!
