Audrey's First Christmas!!!

We hope everyone had a Very MERRY Christmas!! We sure did! Audrey made our holidays so much fun. It was such a joy to watch her have fun with all of our family at Christmas! We went to Glenn's Aunt Janice's for lunch on Christmas Eve, where Audrey got to open her first present! She loved being around all the cousins there and loves her presents! After lots of good food, we went home for a quick power nap, then off to Mimi and Happy's for round two! Where there were lots more gifts, food and family!!!! Then later that night after she fell asleep, Santa passed and left Audrey lots of cool things....Clothes, a toy purse (even came with a lipstick!!), a farm house, bath toys, lots of new bows, a cookies jar for when MOM makes cookies....and the best of all LEOPARD boots! She loved unwrapping all her gifts and was so excited. We couldn't have asked for a better Christmas! It was awesome!

Up North with Papa! City of Lights...

Audrey and Mom took a road trip to visit Papa for a few days in Natchitoches. Last night we went look at all the lights downtown and went look around at a few shops. It was pretty chilly though. Then we went eat at Mariner's, a nice restraunt on the river. The food was awesome and Audrey was very well behaved. Kinda loud, but good! Today we headed out early for a lil' Christmas shopping...she fell asleep on the way home. About to head out for a little more shopping at the shops down town. It is very pretty today! We are staying across the street from the House Steel Magnolias was filmed at. It is the view from the front porch here.Pretty neat!

Evie's night with Nanny & Audrey

Last weekend Cousin Evie came spend time with us. She got to play on Audrey's blanket and loved all her toys! Mom and Dad had an evening with friends, so she hung out at Nanny's! She is such a sweet baby and was very good. She laughed at me and Audrey the whole time. Audrey will definitely have to learn some rules on sharing as they get older, every toy Evie would pick up, Audrey wanted and would take it from her. Evie was such a good sport and was content with any toy. They are really sweet together, and we are so lucky to have them so close in age. They are gonna be best gal pals! It will be fun. Come back any time Evie!!!

Let the Holidays begin!

Hello to all! We enjoyed the Thanksgiving holiday and are looking forward to Audrey's first Christmas. We had a very nice Thanksgiving with the Boudreaux's at Happy's house. And visited with the Thibodeaux's at Aunt Janice's! Audrey has 3 teeth and is almost about to start walking. She is still quite a character and can wave "BYE BYE" now. She waves at everyone when we are shopping...and of course with the a big grin on her face! She came along with Mom and MImi to Houston for some shopping and fun at Melba's Market. She was very good and loves to shop!!!! Thank goodness! Here are a few new pictures of Audrey Lane!

Audrey's first tooth!

Well, Audrey finally has a tooth!!!! Today after picking her up from Crystal's, I noticed she had a tiny piece of white showing...and it was indeed her first tooth. Yay, she's nine months old...it was sure time to get one. We have been doing very well. This weekend Mom and Papa are going to a wedding in New Orleans and Audrey will stay with Auntie Niki and the boys. I will miss my lil' girl! But know she will be in good hands and I know she will have lots of fun playing with Beau.

Happy Halloween!! From the Pink Leopard!

Well Audrey enjoyed her first Halloween! She was a leopard....a PINK one of course! We went to the carnival at Papa's Church with cousin Beau and Auntie Niki, she had so much fun watching all the kids and everyone loved her costume. She was so cute and left her hood with the ears on all night, she didn't try to pull them off. After, we went visit Mimi and Happy, then went eat at Pizza Palace. Fun night with the fam! Here are a few pictures of Audrey. Everyone called her a kitty!

Pumpkins anyone?

Today we went to a pumpkin patch that Mimi was invited to put on by the Miles Perret center. She was out of town , so we still went...so Audrey could see all the pumpkins. Cousin Evie went too. The weather was so pretty, a bit chilly, but very nice! We took pictures in the pumpkins and got to decorate one for Audrey to take home. It has pretty red lipstick and pink feathers...Mimi will like it. After the pumpkin patch we went to the park and had a picnic with Evie, Uncle Bryan and Aunt Kristin. Nanny Blanche came along to join the fun. We had a very fun outing and were glad to spend time with Papa! Can't wait til' Audrey's first Halloween...hadn't decided what she's gonna be yet!

8 months old!

It's hard to believe that our lil baby girl is already 8 months old. She is such a busy body now that she can crawl around. I find myself scooping her up from one place, only to find her back there again within minutes...she keeps us very busy. It's been a while since we posted. This week Audrey and I came to visit Papa in Natchitoches. The weather wasn't too nice, but we enjoyed our stay and Audrey made herself at home, and loves it outside over here. Hope next time its sunny! Today the two of us went (window) shopping downtown. We had fun seeing all the pretty stuff. We'll have to save up some money for next time, so we can buy something...and we only got to see half of the shops! Can't wait. It is so nice over here. Here are a few new pictures of Audrey.

Audrey Crawling!

Like Mother, Like Daughter!

Amy gave Audrey a pair of shoes for my shower. They are called "Heelariuos"....they are high heels for babies, in zebra print...How perfect! Any body that knows me, knows that I am almost always in heels...And now, Audrey too? They finally fit her, I would take them out about every month to see if they fit yet, and the other day when i tried, hooray they stayed on! So this week we cooked for Mimi's birthday and she wore them! They were a hit and we all got a good laugh. Wonder if Audrey will love high heels like her mom? We had a good week and the weekend was nice too! Saturday Papa and Audrey hung out together so I could go with Blanche , Mom, and Mal to look at Wedding dresses! So many pretty ones!!! But ONE stood out!! Yes, Audrey can crawl now and even pulls herself up on the furniture! Look out! It will never be the same again.

Sunday already!

Time to pack up again! The weekend flew by...We celebrated Momo's 80th birthday Saturday, the whole family was there. So many babies and so much noise! It was nice seeing everyne again. We had a good weekend, cant believe it's Monday already! Papa is getting packed up again to leave for the week. Audrey and I will miss him...He would like to pack her up in his suitcase, I'm sure!!! This is her last Sunday helping pack...

We miss you Papa!

Hey Papa! We miss you, and can't wait til u come home! Glenn started working up north, in Natchitoches....so we don't see him during the week. We are pretty sure he misses us as much too. All is well over here! Audrey is gonna be crawling for real...soon. Hugs n kisses
Blair N Audrey

Ready to CRAWL!

Audrey is so ready to crawl, but she just hasn't quite figured it out yet....however, it won't be long though. She knows she has to move her arms but can't figure out that her legs have to also. It's so funny to watch her, if she can't reach her toys she'll scoot around in a circle til she reaches whatever she's after. We have been having so much fun watching her grow and she is showing us her quite funny lil' personality! Here are a few pictures we took last night of her playing in her room, practicing to crawl.

Great Weekend

Saturday we went to the Miles Perret, Games of Acadiana with my Mom and the family. It was nice and such an awesome thing they put on. Audrey liked the big Jumbo screen at the cajun dome! She got a pretty flower painted on her face. She ended up falling asleep while we were there and slept while they painted it. Mimi got her hair painted in cool colors instead of her face! Here are a few pictures from Saturday.
