bye, bye, rock-a-bye

my grandma sang this song to my dad when he was little, my dad sang it to me when i was little, and also sang it to Audrey every night when he put her to bed at GG's house a couple weeks ago. she loves it and asks me to sing it to her before bed every night.
tonight she started singing it on her own when we were reading a book before bed! sooooo sweet! i just love her little voice! she sings the first line and then bits and pieces of the rest!
(here are the "real" lyrics, in case you're wondering haha!)
"bye, bye, rock-a-bye
daddy's gone-a hunting
to catch a little rabbit skin
to wrap our baby Audrey in"

PS i can't believe it's August and my last post was a month and a half ago! here's a quick update:
Will turned 26

 
we moved into a beautiful house on a private 5 acres the first week of July. it's insanely gorgeous and peaceful out here! think pecan trees, grape vines, and moss hanging from the trees. we love it so much! 

we survived a brutal round of the stomach flu 48 hours before we left for Michigan

Audrey and i took our second flight together to make our annual summer trip to Grandma's house in Jackson, MI

i received a promotion and raise
Will finished his summer semester and earned a 4.0 in all of his stick welding certifications
Audrey started a new school

we had our most adventurous date night yet

Audrey has decided that she wants to go and live with her most favorite person in the world, her Aunt Ann

Audrey is obsessed (OBSESSED) with tractors and matchbox cars. forget dolls and tea parties, this chick wants to vroom vroom around the living room all day long!  

t-minus 2 months and 2 weeks until little miss Audrey turns two (and i get to see my dad again!) she is growing up before our eyes!
