Audrey turns 2!

 my mom shared her birthday hat with Audrey for her party...it didnt last long :)
 Audrey is finally big enough to stand on the bouncy pillow (giant trampoline thing)
 looking pleased on the hay ride
walking to have cake with Grandma Jen

 
i only got video of her blowing out the candle, no pictures. here she's licking the "2" candle.
 you can see a decorated cupcake in front of Ezekiel here


smiling at the kitty card

 trying to figure out how to carry this bag...
still trying...
 very proud of her 2 puppies after she figured out the perfect way to carry them
the farm was so empty, it was like a private party :)
 she's big now, she's 2, she can jump!

Audrey is a delightfully mischievous girl :) We dont LOVE it when she's being naughty of course, but we appreciate her strength, her confidence, her kindness, her independence (she's been dressing herself in whatever clothes she can reach and has recently figured out buttons!), her super cuddles, and that she goes to bed so well! Her language has exploded in the last few weeks and its been very exciting as she is already speaking in short sentences.

Audrey Jude Salmon arrived.
We had a pretty tough first year (mostly circumstances not relating to Audrey). Things turned around and the last year has gotten better and better and life seems to be easier and more enjoyable the older she gets. We are very excited to have a 2-year-old in the house. I'm especially looking forward to the day when potty training "clicks" :)

Thank you God for this wonderful girl who has a strong presence in our family.
