Long Absence
Kerri and I have been fairly busy throughout November and December. There have been trips to Oklahoma and Chicago. Visits from family and friends. Birthdays (mine). Anniversaries (ours). And helmets (Audrey's). Through it all, we've been taking pictures, but Kerri hasn't had an opportunity to post in a while. Thus, I'm including a few pictures from our anniversary in November for your perusal. Kerri will be back shortly. Happy Holidays.
Audrey is helping her dad open an anniversary card. She's sporting her new helmet which is correcting a flat spot on the back right side of her head. She's taken to it very well. In fact, better than her parents. We have to drive her every couple of weeks to Dallas to get it adjusted. She's scheduled to wear it for 3 to 6 months from the beginning of November.
Shelby and her dad. Our first daughter needs some attention every now and again. She's been very good with Audrey thus far. My scraggly beard in its beginning stages. Now, it's patchy and long. Awesome.
Audrey at a picnic for her parents' anniversary. It was a bit chilly, so she was well-bundled. Notice her pink cheeks. As over-reactionary first time parents, we ran her to the urgent care facility shortly hereafter. Four hours after that, we were home. Nothing to worry about. She had an ear infection.
This was a huge pecan tree at the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens. The opening was large enough to crawl through, and the hollow in the tree would provide decent shelter in the event you're caught out in the wilds of the park in a blizzard. Blizzards and Fort Worth go together hand in hand. Or something.
Audrey and her mother at the gardens. Even I had a pretty good time, considering we were at a picnic and everything. Audrey's almost 20 pounds at this point, and will be 8 months old this Friday (the 19th). Time is flying. Kerri and I are ever vigilant now that she's crawling around and pulling herself up on inanimate (and animate) objects. Shelby's not a big fan of being used as a walker, but she tolerates it.
