Update

Hi all!  Small little update (minus pictures, boring I know).  Audrey is doing well and has been fighting off a small bout of pneumonia this past week (note that the said pneumonia came on during day #2 of me being back at work, I am lucky to have an employer who understands the work/life balance!).  She's on antibiotics and inhalers and still has her sweet Audrey disposition despite being under the weather.  We are scheduled to head out to the Midwest this week to visit family -- Audrey is looking forward to seeing her great-grandma Audrey and meeting her cousin, Siri (and seeing everyone else, too!)  I'll be bringing my camera with and my new 8GB memory card, so I'll have plenty of photos to post after our Minnesota/Wisconsin voyage.  Until then, keep Miss Audrey in your thoughts for a healthy recovery... she seems to be getting sick a lot these days...

Thanks!

Ok, ok... here's a photo of Audrey trying to lift a 20lb medicine ball at our gym... hard to enforce a toddler to keep still and rest up!

"He 'go"

That's Audrey speak for 'Here you go'.  Followed by, 'gank-goo' (thank you).  Our sweet little cherub! 

Audrey Flood, Nike Shoe Tester

Last week when Audrey and I went to visit Grandma Flood at her work, Audrey was requested to return the following week to be a Nike 5c Shoe Tester -- we happily accepted the offer (and by 'we' I mean Mari and I).  Today Audrey tried on the Fall/Winter 2010 line of the toddler Michael Jordan's.  As a shoe obsessed female, I have to say that they were pretty sweet (oh yeah, Audrey liked them too).  Photos were taken, small videos were shot, and notes were jotted for every pair she tried on.  After 30 minutes of this Audrey got to pick out a pair of her own shoes (pictured).  Audrey kept saying "shoesh" the entire time, she had a blast.

Miss Audrey goes back in 2 weeks for round #2 of the shoe testing.  More shoe testing = more shoes.  Maybe I should look into this myself... 

We also shared some coffee/oatmeal with Grandma.  Audrey passed out on the car ride home -- she remains sleeping as I update this blog.
