Her Great Aunt Linda from New York and Her Aunt Lorrie for Jacksonville were here visiting and spent lots of time with her. Grandma let her eat mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes with her hands! She liked the mashed, but really loved the sweet potatoes. She had Gerber Dutch Apple desert too. Afterward she needed a bath because she was covered in potatoes, they were even in her diaper!<\/p>\n<p>Over Thanksgiving weekend Audrey started teething, we cant see any teeth yet, but we are sure that it&#8217;s time it is the real thing. She has been very fussy, has especially pink cheeks, tugs on her ears occasionally, bites and chews on everything in sight, isn&#8217;t sleeping through the night and is sticking her tounge out all the time! We can&#8217;t even get a good look at her gums because she pulls away or sticks out her tounge every time we touch her mouth! We have only had to give her Tylenol twice so far, but I hope this passes soon. She seems really uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p>Audrey sits up by herself very well now but the Doctor thinks she may not be a crawler (like her Mom.) She says her little legs are very strong and that she might just start &#8220;pulling up.&#8221; She anticipates her to starting crawling or pulling up to happen sometime in December. She was 14 lbs 11 oz at her last appointment but she is still fitting in some of her 0-3 month clothes. She has gotten a little longer though and her feet have grown! She no longer fits in some of her baby shoes. Her bald spot has completely filled in! Her hair is getting longer and starting to hang over her ears now!<\/p>\n<p>Rob took her for a walk last night and she liked looking at the Christmas lights in the neighborhood. Now that the weather is cooling down we are spending more time outdoors. She loves watching the neighborhood kids play in the street and watching the birds in our backyard. She laughs easily now at pretty much anything her Dad does. If he laughs, she laughs. It&#8217;s so cute to watch but I&#8217;m a little jealous because she doesn&#8217;t seem to find me nearly as amusing. Then again, Rob sometimes goes to great lengths to make her laugh hard, usually by breakdancing on the kitchen floor. I can&#8217;t compete with that kind of entertainment!<\/p>\n<p>Audrey actully likes going out now, so short trips to the store are no longer a problem. We will be spending lots of time in the mall as it gets closer to Christmas and I am going to take her to get her picture taken with Santa! Check back for that picture before Christmas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Thanksgiving Pictures: <\/strong><br \/><strong><\/strong><br \/><strong>Audrey Eating Turkey Dinner: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/zilay.com\/weblogs\/turkey1.JPG\"><strong>turkey1.JPG<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong><br \/><strong>Audery Bathing After Dinner: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/zilay.com\/weblogs\/turkeybath.JPG\"><strong>turkeybath.JPG<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family:trebuchet ms;\"><strong>October 31:<\/strong><br \/>Audrey was a ballerina for Halloween. We bought her costume on eBay and it was really cute. She had a tutu, a headband, and the feet had little satin slippers. Of course, she is too young to do any real trick-or-treating, but she helped us hand out candy at the front door where everyone could admire her cute costume. Rob&#8217;s Mom came over and brought her some Halloween treats including a Halloween book and bib. My parents stopped by later to see the baby in her costume.  Audrey seemed to like all the things there were to look at on Halloween. Our neighborhood has a great Halloween celebration and we probably had 75 trick-or-treaters come to our door! Of course, lots of people commented on how cute our little ballerina was!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/zilay.com\/weblogs\/turkeybath.JPG\"><\/a><strong>Picture of Audrey in her costume: <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/zilay.com\/weblogs\/hallow.JPG\"><strong>hallow.JPG<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>November 30:Audrey had a wonderful 1st Thanksgiving!
