Happy Birthday!

We celebrated Justin's 28th birthday at the family campout this weekend. Audrey and I are so blessed to have the best husband and father that anyone could ask for.

Love you tons and tons Daddy!

35 Weeks Old

Another Tuesday and another week old. How can it already have been 35 weeks since Miss Audrey was born? It seems like just yesterday. We are so thankful to have such a good baby. It is fun to watch her grow and change each week. She is trying very hard to start walking and has the bumps and bruises to prove it. She is also trying to wave and has even given Mommy a few good laughs!

Hand and Footprints

One of my sweetest families from school gave me a gift certificate to have Audrey's hand and footprints done at Hands On Keepsakes (http://www.tottracks.com). We went for her 6 month birthday and I just picked them up this past week. I am so excited with how they turned out! The paint is a darker raspberry color that matches her room perfectly. Such a very special thing to have to remember Audrey's little hands and feet. Thanks so much Martin Family!

P.S.- We put Audrey's hand and foot over these to see how much she has grown in two months and her toes now reach the bottom of her name and her fingers are a good 1/4 inch past where they were.

We just can't believe how fast she is growing up!

4-H Horse Fair

We spent the day in the sun at 4-H Horse Fair today. All the girls did a great job and Audrey had lots of fun watching the horses. She mostly enjoyed standing in the grass though, and playing with all the things on the camping chairs. :)

Taking a little nap before starting the day

After horse fair we went back to Grandpa Randy and Grandma Lynne's house for a bit. Audrey had her first ride on the backhoe and even helped with chores and milking. She had a very busy day!

"Watch out Grandpa!"

Eight Months Old

Our little princess is eight months old today! She is changing every day and always learning new things. She has four teeth now and is eating all kinds of food. We haven't really found anything she doesn't like yet (which we are very happy about) and she loves to eat out and sit in the "big girl high chairs." Audrey is crawling all over the place and can pull herself up on just about anything that doesn't move away. :) She is getting much stronger and her balance is getting better every day. She is a super good clapper :) and is working on learning to wave. She is such a good baby and a joy to have in our lives. We love her more than she will ever know and are so thankful that God has given us such a special little girl.

Zoo Trip

We took a trip to the zoo with Justin's Family today. Hallie and Grace went with us and we had a great day. It was perfect weather and the girls had a great time playing with Audrey's cousin Eve.

Audrey wasn't too sure about the girls holding her :)

Lemonade Stand

It isn't the most sunniest of days...but the girls REALLY wanted to have a lemonade stand so we went ahead and set it up. So far Aunt Miranda is their best customer, but here's hoping a few more people stop by. :)

Audrey is pretty excited about the lemonade stand too :)

Trip to the Park

The sun came out for a bit today and we decided to take a trip to the park. Hallie and Grace had a great time playing with the "big girls" that were there and Audrey enjoyed spending some time with Mom!

Going for a swing

Ready for a BIG push :)
