Aubrey Update


Hey everyone! Just wanted to give a quick update and a few new pics and video...
Things are going well. We just went on our first road trip to Panama City to see Dianne's parents. Aubrey did great! We kept her on the go a good bit and coming home has been a bit tough trying to get back on her schedule....but we will make it! While we were in PC her Grandma was able to give her a bottle several times without a fuss! We are working on it here, Jamie has gotten her to take several bottles! Thank God!.....will just take some time and patience. I was able to go visit with our friend Tony McKenzie and Aubrey got to meet him. I got to meet his daughter Gabriella and she is BEAUTIFUL!

Aubrey is growing so fast and changing everyday! It seems she is doing something new everyday! She is finding her hands now and trying to get them to her mouth constantly! Poor thing she pokes herself in the eye all the time because she's just not coordinated enough yet. She loves being on her tummy and is getting really good at holding her little head up! She loves going outside for walks and being in the fresh air, the weather had been perfect for that lately! We went out this afternoon and watched the rain and she loved it!


She is smiling and talking alot and likes to hear her own voice so I am adding a few new pics and wanted to let you know that I have posted some video on Youtube.com. I have included a link over on the right hand side of the blog.....hope you enjoy! Take care...more later! Here is the link.

Aubrey is 2 months old

Happy Fall to everyone! We are lovin' the weather! We can't believe it but Aubrey is 2 months old! We had our 2 month check up this morning and she weighed 11 lbs. 13 oz. and is now 22.5 inches long! She gained nearly 3 lbs and 1.5 inches in one month! She is out of her newborn diapers and in size 1 now, but I don't think for too much longer! She got her 2 month vaccinations today.....it sucked! It broke my heart! I cried! She did well, she was over it in about a minute, but oh I hated it! We don't go back now until she is 4 months old.


We just had a great visit with Jamie's parents. Their first time to meet Aubrey! And they are WRAPPED!!!! Aubrey enjoyed them so much she thought they were funny! They got her to smile sooo much! She got lots of hugs and lovin' and many rocks to sleep in the chair by her Nanna, which they both enjoyed! While they were here we were able to have Aubrey Baptized. We did it in the church we were married in and the priest who married us performed the ceremony. We asked Pat and Dee Reilly to be the God Parents. Thanks guys that means so much to us! The ceremony was beautiful.


Aubrey's Nanna, Aunt Stacy and Aunt Gina had a shower for her before she came for a visit and Aubrey made out like a bandit! Her closet is busting at the seems! All the stuff is soooo cute! She won't ever get to wear it all there is so much! Thank you soooooo much! She will be a well dressed baby.


She is developing so much. She is very vocal! She is smiling all the time and LOVES the mirror! She loves bath time and is doing pretty good with the schedule we have started.....just takes time and practice. She is very strong and getting pretty good at holding her head up. The only thing going on now is that she won't take a bottle anymore. Uh-oh! We will be working hard on that!




Can you believe this shirt was too big when we first came home! Now she looks like a busted can of biscuits!









Sweet baby all clean in her princess robe and ready for bed!
