To school with Audrey






I had so much fun on Tuesday. I took a day off of work and took Audrey to school. We had so much fun together and she did so many new things. She was asking to wash her hands a lot, walked with the cart to the motor room, went down the slide all by herself(and climbed up it), sang a bunch of songs, and is called the "language star" of her class. She just amazes me each and every day with everything she is learning and knows. I had such a fun day and took a few pictures and video on my cell phone so that I could share with everyone else.
At circle time, she was the only one that would talk and sing. When asked what songs the kids wanted to sing, she would answer for them. We walked to the motor room with a cart and she pushed it the whole way by herself and sung out the whole time. When we got to the motor room, she climbed up the slide, dunked under the opening to it, and scooted herself around to slide down it. After she went down, she would say bump. The slide was a lot of fun, but then she wanted to go on the trampoline. They put her on it and it has a bar for her to hold onto. She held onto it and bounced away. She loved it and was laughing the whole time. We then had to go on the swing. She loves it and it is always saved for last because if she gets on it first, then she won't get off the whole time they are there. She would go back and forth and side to side on the swing. When we were finished, she tried to get her shoes on all by herself. It was so darn cute. I took video of that and many other things. We went back to the classroom and had some cake and then she started to get fussy and I thought it was time to go. I took her out to the bye bye buggy (one of her other favorite things) and put her on it to take pictures. Well, WWIII started when I wanted to get her off of it. She screamed, tried to bite me, scratched me, and arched her back so that it was very hard to carry her. She then got mad when I was trying to put her in the car seat and started to arch her back and try to slide out of it. Of course, mommy eventually won the battle, but she is a strong  little cuss. She has a vibe for life and loves to sing and talk like someone else I know! I love listening to her and spending time with her. Tuesday was so much fun!!! 
There are some pics above and  a video of her below! I'm going to post another one in a different blog!

My first post.....pondering thoughts

I'm sitting on the couch listening to my little girl who is almost 2 say there we go, there we go....wondering exactly what she is talking about. Not sure, but she is happy. She talks all the time and absolutely loves to sing. She also loves her older brothers with a love very strong. She learns everything at an amazing rate. We say a word to her once and she is repeating it (therefore, we must be careful of what we say! :-)
I'm also listening to the 3 wonderful men in my life out in the backyard working. They are all 3 working on planting new grass in our yard. Our old puppy tore the whole yard up and it's needed replanting for some time. It's fun to listen to all that is going on. Jim, explaining to the boys how it's done and then the boys thinking they have a better way. Then of course, there is the fighting that goes on between the 2 boys......ahhhh.......to be young again (NOT!!!) Jim also has bagpipe music playing, so it's nice to listen to it!!!
Audrey is now screaming for her water..............I better go make her some more before she gets too awful upset!................
I'm figuring this out, so will post pictures as I get it figured out!!!!!
