July

July 2: Audrey's new beach chair with built-in umbrella and mommy's new five-finger toe shoes.  

July 3: Bellows Air Force Recreation Area Beach

(she was going to eat the mommy)

July 7:  Getting ready to go pick up DADDY!

Showing Daddy how she drinks through a straw

July 9: Bonding

July 10: Kiss

July 13: Turning up the volume to the TV.  We're pretty excited about this development...

July 14: Clapping

July 15: Rex got a new baby carrier

July 16: She loves shoes and these are the biggest ever :)

July 18: In a stuffed animal daze.  Notice her leg crammed through the handle of the dino.

July 18: The Gerber Bomb.  Jarred peas, a carrot, and Guinness.  Yum.  This is what happens when you take a baby to a bar. This is Rex's 1st Sergeant.

July 23: She's 3/4 of a year old!

July 25:  Aside from mommy's milk her favorite is getting a huge strawberry that she's allowed to cram in herself (sorry, Aunt Jen).  She also loves chewing on carrots, eating whole peas, gnawing on a banana, a bit of Greek yogurt, and guacamole.  The guac has to have lime and garlic to satisfy this little junkie!  We've also found her licking the top of the salt mill and cleaning the habanero sauce off of Rex's dinner plate and wanting more when we take it away.  Around her mouth was red, but it didn't phase her!  She definitely has a combination of Great Grandpa (Jim) and her daddy in her!

As soon as I get a chance to process the videos I'll post her pushing her walker around the room and the clapping game she plays with Rex.  It's also been a few weeks since I've weighed her, but she's filling out her 12mo clothes quite nicely now and the 12m footy PJs will have to be put away soon.

Now that he's seen firsthand just how cute she is her daddy has decided it's time to build a rifle collection to protect her from future boyfriends :)

July was an amazing month in our house and we can't wait to see what August has in store for us!
