Scout is scared of her.

Squirt is usually tolerant of her screaming and swatting but has lashed out a couple times.

For about a week now, Austen has been able to stand up from a sitting or crawling position without holding onto anything. This really helps with her ventures in walking.

This blog is intended to be honest and forthcoming, not just a sugar-coated diary of events, so Mommy has to report that Austen threw a fit again at lunch today — for the second time in less than a week. Mommy and Austen went out with Eileen and Mia and were having a great time until Austen got tired and started fussing loudly. Mommy is worried that she won’t be able to take Austen to adult restaurants if this keeps up.

Lots of babies complain during lunches with their moms but Austen’s complaint cry is much louder than average. Thus the dilemna. To take her out of the house, or not to take her out of the house.

Austen felt a little afraid of her Hershey’s Kiss Doll.

But she’s still kissable.

There’s nothing to say. These pictures speak for themselves.
