Astrid is sleeping off a big day out at the
Mud House while I take a moment to document our week to date. Today, we met Abbey for coffee and ran into Katie, the magnificent woman who accidentally-on-purpose delivered her. Notice the completely innocuous Maggie spooning Astrid. Completely innocuous. Really.
Astrid is a great companion. Her curiosity is overwhelming. She notices everything and everyone. She makes people smile. Mostly due to her amazing chipmunk cheeks, her wonderful chunky thighs (today with legwarmers) and those sweet noises she makes. Plus, she noms on giraffes (thank you Aunt Debbie) and you can see below, that makes for an awfully cute photo.
Yesterday was also a girls' day out. Grandma Bev took her girls shopping. Picking out outfits is such a great joy! We had lunch, hit Old Navy and here we are at Spicer's. We even went to this very outdated place...how you say...bookstore?, for coffee (which was actually tea). Astrid learned the joy of those big green Starbuck's straws. Doesn't Astrid look awfully peaceful here with Stanley, her recently purchased (thank you Grandma Bev) frog?
Ok who can believe it has been 6 months since Astrid's birth? It is so hard for me to believe. Before I tell you all the amazing things Astrid has learned to do - look at this:
Yep, that is the elusive Jasmine wearing an I *heart* Grandpa onezie (thank you Grandma Judy). Some people do not believe this kitty exists. Who says I didn't just google image "Cat in onezie" and paste it here? Oh wait, now I have google imaged "cat in onezie". Don't do that.
And now for the What-Astrid-is-up-to montage:
 |
| She can grab this parrot. That means she is a whole lot taller than she was just about six weeks ago when we had to boost her with yoga blocks just to reach the floor. |
 |
| Jumping jumping for joy. |
 |
| Rolling around, being awesome. |
 |
| Rolling can be a form of transportation. Rolling gets you sparkly stuff. |
Next up...a birthday post. Tomorrow she is six months!
