Today is Audrey's one month birthday. She gave us the best gift... she slept for a 5 hour then a 4 hour stretch last night! I almost feel fully rested. Ha! Of course Miles was awake for 3 of the last 4 hours, so not as rested as I could be.
The poor thing spent her birthday unceremoniously strapped in the carseat running errands. We went back down to Wayne's office so I could do a little more filing and she met several friends who work in the building. Then we all had lunch before going to my dress fitting for Kyle and Megan's wedding next weekend. I had to get measured while pregnant, so it was pretty off in sizing. The lady I went to was so great and said it would be ready in plenty of time. Then it was off to Kroger before swooping in to pick up Miles just before the skies opened up. Whew!
Miles has been a fantastic big brother. He's so loving with her, but we are seeing some tantrums that I'm sure are related to the new baby. It's also the age, his teachers say all the kids are asserting their independence. We hear a lot of, "No, I do it!" Like yesterday at the park when he wanted to push Audrey in the stroller. The whole way. He did a pretty good job with only minimal steering adjustments from me. And then he was a real sweetheart and gave me this beautiful flower!!
Audrey has changed a lot just in this week. She outgrew one of the padding liners around her head in the car seat. After the big sleep last night she stayed awake for almost 2 hours, looking around and playing. She's becoming more vocal! Lots of coos and squeals. And Wayne and I both think we've seen smiles that are maybe not just gas. Our little girl is growing up. She's already telling her friends "Call me!".. check it out!
