Getting ready for bathing suit weather! Trying on the 12 month suit :)

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 :)

I'm coming!

Okay, I have been really bad about updating the blog lately. It has been a very long 6 weeks. Knee surgery, Aubrey and I having head colds that lasted for weeks, the stomach flu passed around in the family and a 3 day hospital stay for me. Things are getting better so I will be updating soon. I hope to do it this weekend....

Til then, thanks for reading, we'll be back up and running very soon!

XOXO

Yeah, I know

Its been awhile, I know. Here is a quick update. I had left knee surgery on Monday to fix 2 torn miniscus', water on the knee, a bone spur and tight tendons. The recovery is going well but I am still in a lot of pain. Laura went skiing with Uncle Richard for the Christmas holiday and with her school last week and she had a great time! Aubrey has been crawling for about a month now, she is eating more 'real' foods now and she now stands up in her crib. Happy 9 months old tomorrow Aubrey!

I will get back to video and pictures again when I can concentrate on blog writing. I hope everyone is well.

Love,
Lisa
