8 months old

It's time for Audrey to slow down! She seems to be growing and changing so much lately. I don't have her stats this month - it's one of the few months she doesn't have a check-up. But Audrey is doing well. This past weekend she figured out how to make clicking sounds with her tongue and she thinks that's pretty fun. Audrey still loves playing with her toys and being outside. She still likes to get some one-on-one time with me some time in the middle of the night - usually some time between 3-5 AM. That's not the only time she wakes up though. Recently she's been crying out quite a bit in the night. Don't exactly know why, but we certainly wish she would sleep a bit sounder... Rachel often says, "I don't want Audrey to cry at night" or "I don't want Audrey to wake me up". We all share her sentiments. :) Even though she struggles at night we definitely have a lot of fun with her during the day. She's become quite the busy little girl. She rarely holds still and wants to reach and get into anything she can. She's still not crawling (thank heavens!), so her abilities are limited somewhat. Audrey likes to be held upside down. She likes to gum her food and really enjoys her two teeth being brushed every night. Audrey has started to get really excited when her daddy comes home. We definitely feel blessed to have Audrey as a part of our family.
