It is hard to believe that Audra is already 10 months old (and two days)! I am sorry that there have not been any updates in a month. No news is really good news! We are busy living and enjoying life.
Both my husband and I had the time off between Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day. It was so nice to be able to relax and spend quality time with our family. We had a very Merry Christmas indeed. We had family over and the girls had a blast with their cousins! Our older daughter had such a great time on Christmas Eve that she slept in on Christmas morning until 9:45. Audra was up early to celebrate her first Christmas and was going down for her nap at that same time. Luckily, our family was not scheduled to come over until the afternoon.
With the snow that fell during our break, the entire family was able to get outside and ride on the sled from Oma and Opa. Both of our girls love the outdoors, which I credit to my husband and also our nanny who both take the girls out frequently.
On New Year’s Eve, we reflected on the year 2012 was for us. As you know if you have been reading this blog, 2012 was one of the best and worst years for us. It was a rough road but we could not be happier or feel more blessed than we do today.
As we noted in our last post, we had hoped that 2013 would be a year without surgery for our family but my sister already required ankle surgery this year. She broke it in a fall just before the new year and had to have surgery on January 2nd. We are happy that the surgery went well and she is recovering, slowly but surely.
Audra continues to do well. She is still growing like a weed and is sleeping well too (although my husband might say otherwise). She can sit up on her own when she is laying down now but she still prefers rolling to crawling. She definitely likes to do things her own way!
Don’t forget that February 7-14 is Congenital Heart Defect Awareness Week. Stay tuned for that!
