Happy 1st Birthday Aubrey!!

Yesterday, April 19th was Aubrey's 1st birthday! She had a real good time and has been stretching out the birthday fun beyond her special day. For the past month we have been singing Happy Birthday to her and she loves it. Her mouth opens to a big O and she stares and enjoys hearing the song. I have tons of videos to share with you but I can't post them tonight. I worked 11 hours today and drove 223 miles so I'm going to post pictures only tonight and then work on the video while I am off on Wednesday and Thursday. On to the fun!!

First Steps!

On Tuesday, April 7, 2009 our little Aubrey took her first steps! She was on the floor in between Daddy and I, and she took 6 steps without going down! She usually is insecure about letting go, so we put her in her walker on the patio and she figured out that she could really move out there. The carpet in the house keeps her from walking so easily. After about a half hour outside, she came in and took some steps! Since then she has only done a few of them, today while cruising around the coffee table she hit her cheek when she fell down. No crying from her, just panic from Dad and I. She has a little gash on her cheek and I snuck a band-aid on her face...she still doesn't know the little band-aid is there. lol She is a tough one and so animated. She tells stories in her language and laughs all the time. 10 more days til her 1st birthday!

Happy Birthday!

To my first baby who is 13 years old today. You are so quiet and sleep so well...originally named Princess, then Bubbies (cause Laura couldn't say her name as a baby) now she is known as Bubbies, Ubbas or kiiii kaaaaa (Aubrey).

Happy 13th Birthday Bubbies!
