I thought these pictures were neat side by side...A lot happens in 10 months.

Why the long face?

Aubrey's First January

Well, I thought I would get in the swing of posting on our blog again. We had a wonderful holiday season, full of fun and family.

Here are a few fresh picks from this past week:















Thanks to those of you who gave Aubrey gifts! She is enjoying them all!

"Carol of the bells"

This was always my favorite from the Claymation Christmas Special.
Also, here is another random find:

Let's get together yayaya...

Alyse hung out with me and Aubrey 3 days last week and we had a lot of fun. They are pretty cute individually but extremely cute together. Here are some pics and a video from the fun time had.

Santa Baby...

Here are a couple of pictures from the ARC party we had last week. Aubrey didn't care for Santa much, but she sure loved on her great, great, great Aunt Jean and Daddy.

Cheezin it up!

Lately Aubrey has been smiling as big as possible and it is pretty funny to watch. I think what makes it even cuter is that she does it at the most random times. She will be eating or doing something routine and just look up and get her cheeze on.

Thankful for family

We had a great time over the Thanksgiving holiday. We upgraded Aubrey's car seat just before we cruised up to Pitkin and we are glad because she really enjoyed her comfortable ride. Colorado was very beautiful (as always) and it was cool to take the trip with the Silverthornes, Busseys and Robertsons. Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasures:

Grammy makes Aubrey laugh

This was taking a couple of weeks ago but I thought you'd like it just the same. ENJOY!

She's goin places!

Aubrey was scooting across our floor so well that we thought she would go straight from scooting to walking. We are proud to anounce that she is crawling now and here is the proof!

It doesn't take much

27 is Heaven

Drew and I celebrated our birthday this past Wednesday, marking 27 years of being alive outside of the womb. We have managed to spend all of our b-days together except our sweet 16th. Aaron, Marshall, Heather, Charlotte, Drew, Alyse, Bryan and I had a good time at Johnny Carino's and then we moseyed over to the Allen's for a little cake, icecream and fun.


I really feel like I had a whole week of celebration because Beth, Laura and Vanessa took me out the Friday before my b-day to celebrate and Bryan, Darrell, Debbie, Angie, Renee' and Granny celebrated with me the Saturday after my b-day. I am so blessed to have such loving family and friends. Thank you guys!

All up in my crib

She can finally stand on her own two feet!
Just in the past couple of days, Aubrey has been pulling herself up so she could stand with the support of the couch and in her crib. We actually had to lower the bed in her crib so she couldn't climb out.

Say my name, say my name...

As of this past week, Aubrey is 8 months old. She is getting so big. She is a little over 18 lbs. now and is getting so tall. Her newest thing to say is "Da-da." Her newest gesture to make is shaking her head no. She can say "bye-bye" and wave, which is something she likes to do a lot. She will also say "BU" when she sees BUCK. She hasn't got the CK sound yet but she is working on that. And my favorite, "Ma-ma." AHH, like music to my ears! Here are a couple of recent pictures of her. I intend to post more of her (in her new duds that Nana bought for her) this week.

Back in the swing of things...

I just realized that I haven't posted a single thing this month. We have been a little "under the weather" so that is my excuse. I didn't think you all would like to see pictures of Aubrey with a runny nose, even though that is pretty cute.
This past Saturday, Bryan took Aubrey over to our little community park and took her for her first "real swing." She was tired even before she started swinging but Bryan said she enjoyed it none-the-less.


Meanwhile, the girls (Laura and Beth) and I went to a local fun-run called "Thundering Sneakers" in the hick town of Henderson Texas. I thought we were just going up there to take a casual 3 mile run. I was unaware that people had been practicing in advance for this thing. We had a good time though and plan to attend next year.
