Audrey's Photo Shoot

Summer Knobloch came to our house this morning and took Audrey's one year pictures. Please take a look at our sneak peek in the link below... and leave a comment on Summer's blog (at the bottom of the pictures)! Summer did an AMAZING job! I can't wait to see the rest! These pictures here made the session worth it! See photos here!

First Steps

Lunch and Shopping... this girl has good taste!

Today we decided to go run some errands in Bloomington. We decided to have a late lunch at Biaggi's to take advantage of the pick two lunch special... and then ran a few quick errands. Audrey enjoyed the bread at Biaggi's... and she was especially excited because they brought her a plastic kids cup with a straw... her face just lit up when the waiter sat it down in front of her. Aftwards, she entertained the fellow von maur patrons while we waited for a gift to be wrapped!

Wagon Ride

While I was at work... Audrey was enjoying a nice wagon ride at her Grandma's! My mom took some pics so that we could see what she was up to!

Glen Oak Zoo

Last Sunday, it was such a beautiful day... we wanted to get out of the house... so we headed over to Peoria to Glen Oak zoo. Audrey loved having her Grandma along, and we all had a fun time!

Aunt Jayne Visited!

My Aunt Jayne visited the last couple of days... and Audrey enjoyed her reading to her. They both love to read!! We enjoyed Jayne's visit. Yesterday, we had a girl's outing to LaTeaDa for a great lunch! My mom, Jayne, my grandma, Audrey, and I all made the little road trip... and had a delicious lunch... especially dessert!

Random Photos

A few random photos of summer fun... This little girl loves her Grandma!! And her Beast!!

Miller Park Fun

I am really behind on my posts... and since Audrey is taking a great nap this afternoon (in her own room in her crib!), I thought I would try to catch up. Two weekends ago, we headed to Miller Park on Sunday evening. Audrey loved watching all of the little kids playing in the sprayground... she can't wait until she can walk and join in with them! The last time we were there, she kept tugging at her shirt trying to take it off... since she saw all of the kids in the swimsuits and trunks! We also decided to feed the geese. I took along a bag of buns that we had at home... and the geese were happy for an evening snack. I gave Audrey a piece of bread to feed the geese... and when I looked over... she had decided that the bread sounded pretty good herself (it is one of her favs!). We had a great time!

Best Buds...

Last summer, our neighbors got a new little puppy, Boomer. Elsie LOVES Boomer... and I think Boomer loves Elsie, too. Elsie sits at the back door every day and watches for Boomer to come out and play. This morning, the dogs played... and decided to take a swim. I guess they wore each other out! Boomer is on the left... and Elsie is on the right!

As you can see...

Audrey is in a fabulous mood. This pretty much sums up our day...

Happy Father's Day!

Loving her Grandpa... and 2 woobies, and bunny, and pig, and giant stuffed dog... and binky!

Sitting pretty...

Loving her baby doll! She loves to watch us lift her baby doll up into the air... giggles and giggles!

Found the baby wipes for the second day in a row...

Riding around on her car... backing into the dog food...

Loves to brush her teeth... by herself!

Splashing in the tub!

A New Cousin for Audrey

Finlay Campbell Hitt was born last Monday, June 15 in Boise, Idaho. He was 8 lbs 14 oz, and is little brother to Caelan. Congrats, Pete & Katie!

Chuck E. Cheese

Last night, Joe and I took Audrey for her first visit to Chuck E. Cheese... and she LOVED it! Although it's not real obvious by the photos, she really did have a good time... evidenced by her unending "happy" noises. We didn't stay long (against Joe's will)... but long enough to overstimulate her!

This is Audrey watching Chuck E. do his dance for the first time... she was in awe.

Here's A riding on her first ride... all by herself. What a big girl! Notice her tickets in hand...

Here she is riding the bucking bronco... not a good idea. He was a little too wild for her! Very worried... desperately grabbing for mommy!

Joe L.'s Birthday!

Wednesday night, we celebrated Joe L. (the daddy-to-be)'s 28th Birthday at Monical's! Even though his birthday was really Tuesday... it was a good time... and good pizza!

As you can see, Audrey is going to town on her binky... thus, Joe's new nickname for her - Maggie. And since I work at a nuclear power plant, I guess that's not too far off!

Fun in a Laundry Basket

Last Sunday, everyone came over... and we grilled out chicken for dinner. Audrey was a bit bored, so Grandma showed her some fun with her winter hat, giggling bear... and a laundry basket. Who knew it could be so fun!
