A-Joy...

...one of the many "love" names we call our baby girl. Not just an abbreviation of her name, but an accurate description of who she is...a joy.

We celebrated the 4 month milestone on the 12th. I find myself holding her and wanting to freeze the moment in time. With news of friends who have lost their baby all too soon, I am reminded not to take one second for granted. There is no room to complain about sleepless nights and explosive diapers...only thankfulness for the 124 days or so I've had with her.

She has so much personality and is clearly a girl...she coos and babbles and squeak/yells like she really has something to say!

Here's a little video of a convo we had the other day


Seems like overnight she has went from helpless infant to lively baby!

Here's some random facts about Audrey at 4 months:

-sleeping thru the night on a consistent basis (7-8 hrs..PRAISE GOD!)

-nicknames: A-Joy, chubba wubba, fuzzy head, baby, peanut, droolie...just to name a few. :)

-rolling over (tummy to back AND back to tummy)...the other day i had placed her on her tummy on the middle of this blanket (made by my dear friend, Kim) and she had rolled herself completely off of it!





-likes to watch Little Einstein: Farm Friends or Meet the Orchestra

-Has the prettiest blue eyes and long eyelashes (yes, I know I'm biased)


-starting to teethe (not so fun) :/

-smiling, giggling, and flirting are her favorite pastimes :)

-totally love, love, LOVES her daddy...she clearly recognizes him when he comes home from work now. :)


-really enjoys music...especially if her favorite person is playing it for her.


-likes when mommy sings "I love you Lord" and the chorus to Justin Bieber's "Baby" (yes, I know that song. Don't judge...it's quite catchy)



There is so much more that makes up the wonderfullness that is our little lady. Just wanted to jot down a few things for memory's sake. What an amazing gift it is to watch her grow.
