Healthy baby!

About 6 weeks ago, Aubrey was treated for a viral infection after having a fever for 2 weeks, runny and stuffy nose and congestion. The doctor decided to put her on antibiotics for 10 days and then she should be cleared up. The cold cleared up but even while on antibiotics and tylenol she was running a fever. She went to the doctor 10 days ago because we were concerned about her having fevers. They told us that if they are over 100.1 than its not just a teething fever. EVERY night she was running a fever from 100.3 to 101.6. Today we took Aubrey back to the doctor after they had us chart her fevers for the week. They drew blood on her and did a urine analysis. She didn't cry at all, just whimpered when they drew the blood and then she was fine. All of her counts came back normal, no elevated white count or anything! YAY! We have a hot blooded baby who runs a steady fever every night....go figure!

BTW she got her first tooth! March 14th the bottom right tooth came in...awww no more all gummy smiles!

We are having such a good time with the little one :)

Almost 1 years old!

So...Aubrey will be 1 year's old in about a month. We feed her pretty healthy foods but wanted to see how she would do with a cupcake. Not knowing if she would like it or not we thought we would do a taste test....I think she loved it!

New photos

Happy girl!

Trying out this birthday thing, Aubrey eating a cupcake!

video to follow.....

Yes, she's mine

So....while watching American Idol last week, I caught video of Aubrey digging for gold. How many 10 month olds pick their nose? She ALWAYS has her finger up there! I can't teach her NO yet, the word is so new to her and I'm saving for the real "no,no's. Oh, and when AI is on, she sings (screeches) like she is the next Idol...we are very amused!

New hairstyle!

Aubrey's hair is getting so long! We went out and bought her some barrettes so we could try a new style...here is one of them right before bedtime!

Sleep?

A few weeks ago Aubrey had her first real sickness where she had to take antibiotics. After dinner and after bottle she was jumping away in her jumper. Philip and I went into our room and Laura followed us in there. After a few minutes all we heard was silence no bouncy bouncy noise from Aubrey. Laura grabbed the camera and this is what we got....note the snoring amongst the bouncy noises :) What a sleeper!

New photos

I owe you all some pictures and videos. It has been a long hard few months. Hospital stays, ER visits, a slip on the ice, housing issues and sickness....we've been hit by it all. I'm going to post some pictures out of order and work on the videos this weekend. Christmas photos are transferring over now so I have newer ones to post before the older ones. Sorry for being out of order...I wanted to get you something! The photos of Aubrey aren't all complimentary due to the fact that every time she see's the camera pointed at her, she squints her eyes in anticipation of the flash. We will be getting her portraits done soon. So here you go!

Trying to get some teething tablets, we have a possible tooth in the works!

Laura and Aubrey, check out the little Aubrey pony tail :)

Laura pulled a muscle in her neck doing a cartwheel, this is her new accessory to wear until Sunday

Aubrey and her new hair clips...they are so tiny and her hair is getting so long

Aubrey wearing one of her hair bows that she got for Christmas from Nana and Popi, she loves them but pulls them over her eyes!

Little Laura. She'll be 13 this year....gulp

Laura and Aubrey smiling for the camera

Aubrey and Daddy

Laura wearing her Barbie Girl costume. This was her last dance performance of the school year

Aubrey taking a bath in her new duckie tub! She is too big for the baby tub and she is intimidated being in the big bathtub...this is a perfect solution...except when she tries to stand up :)
