We have had a full week and the weekend promises to be full as well. I have a bunch of pictures of Audrey to share from the week, and I will do that this weekend, most likely during nap time, while I am running around my house trying to get other things done as well....showering, cleaning, cooking for the week ahead...thank gosh my mom did all my laundry while she was at my house this week with Audrey! What would I do without her!?

Audrey has been enjoying her daily "solid" food meal and we have moved on from avacado (click on this link to read about why avacado is such a great first food for baby!) to green beans. I'm thinking maybe sweet potatos next....yum! I am going to try to make as much of her baby food as possible, and so far that is going well. I'm sure for some things I will just buy premade baby food, but I want to make as many fresh things for her as I can. That way I know exactly what is in them and exactly what I am putting in her. I've made a few batches to freeze, but I am reluctant to freeze too much at this point, because I want to be sure she doesn't have an allergy to the newest food before I make a ton of it. There is a ton of info. out there about homemade baby food if you are interested. I also have a great book that a friend has shared with me, The Super Baby Food Book. It's teriffic and has tons of info. and recipes. More on this later!

Patrick and I are going to the Martina McBride and Trace Atkins concert Sunday night. My parents will be watching Audrey and putting her to bed....I'm rather sad that I will miss putting her to sleep, that is one of my favorite times with her, and I have never missed it, but I will be there when she wakes in the middle of the night to nurse, and Patrick and I need a night out together. This should do us for another 5 months or so!:)
