Past Due for an Update!

So I clearly have been busy adjusting to being back at school and have been unable to update the blog. Being back at work is going fine. It hasn't gotten any easier, but it's just become more of a routine. I can't imagine it ever being "easy" to hand my child over to someone else for the day and leaving her. I miss her so much everyday, but I'm happy to know she's in good hands, and Karen sends me pictures sometimes so I can see how happy Audrey is! She has gotten SO big and is so much fun at this age! I meant to post on the day she turned 5 months old but didn't get around to it. So, I'll post some 5 month info now! At five months of age, Audrey...

• Weighs somewhere around 20 lbs (I checked by stepping on the scale with her). We sure do have a big girl!
• Is losing her hair like crazy! She looks so bald compared to a couple months ago when she had that head full of hair!
• Has eyes that are changing color. We can't tell what color they really are going to be, but they tend to be a bluish gray.
• Wears size 3 diapers.
• Is still fitting into 3-6 month sized clothing, but I've also busted out the 6-9 month. The sizing varies so much for the different brands!
• Laughs and giggles like CRAZY and is very ticklish.
• Is starting to be a Daddy's girl, which Daddy just loves!
• Smiles with a big open mouth.
• Takes bottles well from Mrs. Karen and also eats cereal mixed with juice and has even had some baby food squash (just in the past couple of days).
• Still sleeps through the night. She has started going to bed earlier (usually by 8) and wakes up around 6:30 now that school's started.
• Rolls from her tummy to her back.
• Grabs at EVERYTHING with her hands! Blankets, toys, bottles, Mommy's hair -- everything!

We are just loving how fun and animated she has become at this age! Now that Jerry and I are both back at work, it has definitely been an adjustment (probably more so for me), but we are treasuring every moment we have with our sweet baby girl!
