Sixth sense or coincidence?

Friday night Audrey woke up from a sound sleep screaming and it took longer than usual to calm her down.  Not long after I get a call that Brian was in a car accident at work.  I may be reading too much into it, but seems like a spooky coincidence that she woke at almost the same time the accident occured.  Brian is fine, thankfully.  He was hit by a drunk driver going the wrong way on the highway.

 

Audrey is enjoying some ice cream.  She is all smiles until the cup is empty :)

I think she is checking the computers temperature. 

Home Improvements

Our new clothes line - the plan is to grow vines on the ends.

Sprouting grass, mixed with a few weeds.

Audrey is getting lots of outdoor time.

Girls Rule!

Brian will be far outnumbered come September.  Looks like baby #2 is another girl!  Everything looked good on ultrasound and I'm feeling great.

 

Audrey is proud of her mud stains.  She's a true country girl.

Brian did some "yard" work this week.  (is it still considered a yard if its 10 acres?)  Filled in the holes in the yard with dirt.  Smoothed everything out and spread some grass seed.  Happy for the rain now as we need this grass to grow!

Rain, rain

Cloudy and rainy all week.  Luckily, the basement stayed dry.  We are ready for spring!

Audrey had a rough night on Friday when her head seemed to be attracted to hard objects- got a bloody nose from one hit- poor girl.  We decided to open the doctor kit to play with since going outside was a bust. 

 

Beautiful Sunday

Audrey and I took advantage of the sunny and warm weather today and hung out outside for most of the day.

 

Brian, with the help of Jason, put up chair rail in the dining room.  It looks good!

Oops! We did it again...

The secret is out; we are expecting baby #2 on September 1st.  Audrey debuted her "Big Sister" shirt today at her doctor appointment.

Preliminary ultrasound shows a girl!  (That's a butt and two legs going toward top of picture)

Audrey had her 1 year checkup today.  50th percentile for weight, 13th percentile for height (we have a shorty on our hands)

Audrey is One!

Audrey turned one year old on Friday.  She had a 3-day long celebration- the girl knows how to party.  Daycare celebrated her birthday on Thursday.  On her actual birthday, she went to lunch with Brian, Grandma and myself.  Then we threw her a party on Saturday.  The whole family came to celebrate and she got lots of great presents.

 

I wore this dress on my first birthday.

Grandma came last week to help watch Audrey while I was on call.  She cleaned the house from top to bottom and made the food for the party.

Grandma made the cake.  It was delicious and beautiful!

Audrey enjoyed her cake.
