Laura's dance video

I tried posting this a long time ago so here we go again....

Aubrey is 5 months old

Our baby is just growing and growing! We have sight of her first tooth! Its a small bud and its already starting....she is a drool monster and grumpy little girl. She is normally so happy and now it is off and on Our new friends are cold chew toys and teething tablets. On her 5 month old birthday Aubrey went to her first football game and enjoyed it while it thunderstormed outside of her stroller. Here are tons of pictures of our big girl!

Long week

Its been a long week for our family. Laura started 7th grade and things are going great. She went to the doctor last week twice. The first appointment was to be tested for her allergies and find out what she is allergic to. 3 hours later we had answers...she is allergic to EVERYTHING! Her main allergy is to horses. HUH? Here are a few pictures, the ones on the right are to animals, the horse is the biggest swollen one, where the ones in the middle and top are to grasses, pollen and trees. Very interesting. The ones that appeared to not bother her on her back they injected under the skin on her arm and those all came back as allergic as well. Her second appointment was to have her brace taken off! All is well, broken wrist is healed :) This week at her school was homecoming week and she has been practicing all week for dancing at half-time.

Aubrey got sick for the first time last week. Laura came home from school with what we thought was a major allergy/asthma attack, but it was more a head cold. Several kisses and a few days later, Aubrey was sick. Mom and Dad couldn't resist all of the sloppy Aubrey kisses and now we are stuffy and blah. We still took pictures of the littlest one, but she didn't feel like putting on a show.

Here are a few pictures...

Yeah Mom, I'll smile for you...I know the food is coming! Aubrey's first time in her new highchair that Grandma Mary bought for her!

Laura's back when the procedure first started, its not too swollen yet. Bad quality from cell phone pictures.

Laura's arm testing for the follow up negative tests. These were positive as well

20 minutes later, her back is swelling up

We have a thumb sucker! Why oh why? You have so many pacifiers available to you! Does this thing run in the family? Not mine and Dad doesn't know much about his to know if its carried on...hmmm

Drama Queen isn't feeling so good....thanks for the shirt Aunt Meg! :)

I don't feel good Mom, stop taking my picture

Are you serious Mom? Why do I have to wear THIS?

Showing off my pretty shirt that Uncle Richard bought for me....and waiting for some lunch!

Aubrey's 1st REAL meal

Aubrey ate sweet potatoes for the first time tonight! Here is a clip of her loving her dinner!



I think Aubrey loved her dinner! This is her way of saying Thank You!!

Aubrey's new growl

Here is a video of Aubrey and her "new" voice. She discovered last week that she can deepen her voice and this is what it sounds like. We call it her growl. Thankfully this only stuck for about a week, we haven't heard it since!
