Audrey's First Halloween

Audrey loved her first Halloween. She wasn't a huge fan of her monkey costume so we switched to a ballerina for her Halloween party. Here are some pictures in her original costume, her spooky pjs from Nana and a few of her (and Evelyn) at her first Halloween party!






Six Months and Still Swingin'




When we first brought Audrey home, she would only sleep in her swing. Now that she is six months old, she sleeps in her crib but still loves to swing! Here she is at the park enjoying a slightly more "grown up" version of her favorite activity.

Audrey's European Vacation


We just returned from a trip to the UK for Audrey's baptism and a little family vacation. We had a wonderful time seeing many friends and family and showing Audrey some new places. After a few days in Guildford at Granny's and a wonderful baptism day, we headed off to the Cotswolds. We took day trips to Bath and Painswick and enjoyed a very relaxing few days in the countryside. Then we headed to London to show Audrey where her parents met 12 years ago. She spent hours in her stroller, taking in the sights with much curiosity and excitement. She was a big hit at the hotel, where everyone remembered her name and greeted her upon each return with affection! Here are some pictures from the trip.






Watching the England football match with Darlene (Audrey had no idea that the following day, her "friend" Darlene would be pouring water over her head in a church!)
