Happy First Easter Aubrey!

Aubrey's First Word!!!

And of course as soon as we turned of the camera she said it again! We just finished calling the grandparents since they have rights to new flashes. But now its available for general release - we're so proud!! The (second) most amazing thing is we caught it on tape to be amazed at over and over again :)

Happy 8 months little one!

Aubrey is 2/3rds of a year old! Time flies huh? She's mastered crawling and is starting to wave, and for a child that outrightly rejected any bottles or pacifiers is getting pretty good at drinking from her sippy cups. She even does a good job of 'feeding' herself - if I give her a spoon with food on it, most of it gets to her mouth :). She is just growing up so fast. Getting so big too. We just had to upgrade to the convertible car seat since she is too long for her infant seat now, and she's even wearing some things in 12 month size! I have no idea where all that time went, and now I'm fairly certain I'm going to turn around and our babble conversations will have turned into conversations about which grad school to attend!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

For Aubrey's first St. Patrick's Day she got to smell corned beef and didn't have to smell cabbage :) She also got to wear a cutie-cute Kiss Me I'm Irish top that none other than her Nana bought her. Nana, spoils her so rotten! And she does it from afar, that takes skill. But Nana gets to see her in 2 weeks!!! We are so excited :)

Look Out! Aubrey is Mobile!!!

Just about a week ago she just started moving across the room! She was headed for her object of constant fascination, the dog :) Malibu has been freaked out pretty much ever since then and is often running away from her. I have to go to Target today and buy a big enough baby gate to block off the kitchen and another one for the top of the stairs, then I have to spend the rest of the day figuring out how to make half of my furniture levitate about 3 feet off the ground so she can't hurt herself on it or play with things she shouldn't. I might also have to invest in one of those play yard fences to block off the desk because I am at a loss there! :) My mommy was right, I spent all that time encouraging her to crawl and I already wish she couldn't get in to everything everywhere!
