Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas to everyone! Just wanted to give a quick update....Miss Aubrey is doing great! She is doing something new everyday! She is really talking alot and she just rolled over for the first time the other day! At first, it took her a while to get over after lots of work....just two days later she can flip right over from her back to her front! She hasn't quite got the hang of front to back and she gets a little frustrated when she can't get back over, but she's learning! She is sleeping through the night most of the time, but here lately has started waking up and playing in her bed at 1 am! She just sings to her mobile and talks for a while then either she has to eat or she goes back to sleep! Either way Jamie and I get to wake up and hear her singing! hahahaha
Aubrey is getting over her first good cold and ear infection. Let me tell you how she hates the bulb suction! When we went to the doctor she weighed right at 15lbs! She seems to be getting taller now. Her hair is steadily falling out and her peach fuzz looks like a very dark red...we will see! We are moving daycares next month and are excited to be at a new one. We had a little misshap at the other one, a toddler decided to give Aubrey a love nip on the nose....so we are moving on...
We had a nice visit yesterday with Aubrey's Aunt Lissa, Uncle Chris and MiMi! We took a road trip over to Gulfport for the day to see Beetle and her family. Aubrey does really well traveling, she just falls right off to sleep!
Nana and Papa are coming in a couple of days for Christmas and we are excited they will be here. I am sure between them and my mom and dad Aubrey will get quite spoiled this year! I have to work, but that is okay with me...I would rather work now when she doesn't know the difference! She will get to spend her first Christmas day with her Daddy!
We hope everyone has a safe and wonderful holiday! We love ya!

Aubrey is 4 Months old!

Well hello everyone! I can't believe it, we just went for our 4 month check up this morning! Aubrey is growing like a weed. She weighs 14 lbs. 15 ounces and is 25 1/4 inches long! She is in the 80th percentile for weight and 83rd percentile for height! I think we must be giving her some kind of jet fuel instead of formula!

She is doing great and talking up a storm. We just put her exersaucer together yesterday (you need an engineering degree to do it!) and she loves it! She loves her tummy time and is trying so hard to scoot with those little ham hocks! Don't let all her curls fool you, she looks like she has male pattern baldness in the back! But she is getting some peach fuzz to fill it in....I just hope it comes in red!

We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Our neighbors were so awesome and fried a delicious turkey for us. My mom came for a week and got to spoil Aubrey alot! Aubrey wasn't quite sure what to make of the turkey. hahahaha

We started Daycare last week. It was tough, more on Mommy than Aubrey! She is really doing well, she wasn't napping or eating well at first, but is doing fine now. We have noticed she is talking alot more and loves to squeal so I think being around the other babies has been great for her! I start back to work next Tuesday and am looking forward to some adult conversation! I know I will miss Aubrey, but it will be good for us, both.

Our friend Della came and took some 3 month and Christmas pics for us, I included some below...Hope everyone has a safe a happy holiday season!
