Sweet little Audrey had cupid come visit her on Valentine's Day and he brought her some of her favorite things!
"Colors" for the bathtub!
Bracelets for the girly girl...
... and a huge container of bubbles!
I made her heart shaped pancakes and strawberries for breakfast but...
... she wasn't very interested. Starting on Thursday, February 11th, Audrey went on a hunger strike and didn't eat anything until Monday, February 15th. She did drink lots of milk, just no solids. Notice what she did with her strawberry in the picture below.
I guess she thought Angel may like it better than she would.
Clay and I went out for dinner Saturday night and Audrey stayed with a babysitter. I think it was the second time she's stayed with a sitter and she loved it. The babysitter said she didn't cry at all and they had a great time together. She was brave enough to pull out the finger paint and let Audrey make us a Valentine card!
This last photo is after church Sunday. She was wrinkled from her carseat but I wanted to add it because the dress is a size 24 months. That is significant because Audrey is small for her age. She is just now wearing size 12-18 month clothes and she will be 18 months Sunday. I know that the dress is a little big and it was probably incorrectly sized but stillll! It's a 24 month!
We head back to the doctor for Audrey's 18 month appointment Monday. At her 15 month appointment, her pediatrician off-handedly said, "Let's try to get her to 22.5 pounds by 18 months!". He made that remark as he was walking out the door but I have taken it seriously. We were doing really well and thought we were going to make the 22.5 pound goal until Audrey decided to stop eating for 5 days. When Clay and I weigh her here, we've gotten her to 22.2 pounds fully clothed. I'm just praying she will be at least 22 pounds. After Monday's appointment though, I am letting it all go. I have stressed about what she was eating since she entered the world and as of Monday.. I am letting it go! She is smart, hits all her milestones, yada, yada, yada, and she will eat when she's hungry!
