Baby Friends



Last night we had Casey, Kari and baby Mallory over for a visit. It was so fun getting together and hanging out with the babies. Since the girls are only six weeks apart it's nice to know we are all experiencing many of the same things together. Aubrey was a chatter box and babbled the whole time. She wore herself out and slept an extra hour and half this morning which was great! Mallory was so cute, we couldn't get over all her hair and how strong she is with her legs. They are both very happy easy going babies which makes it much easier for us all. I didn't get a lot of pictures but can't wait for more from Kari and her new camera!

Trying solids...





At Aubrey's four month appt, Dr. Hankins advised we can start introducing solids. I have tried a couple times and she doesn't seem that interested but the pictures sure are funny. She really enjoys her highchair so that's a plus.

Baby Jesus


Aubrey had her first acting debut as Baby Jesus in her daycare Christmas program. She barely made the cut as they always use the youngest baby and new baby Jonah started the next day. She was cute even though she was a four month old Baby Jesus with a nook in her mouth! All the kids were adorable and I can't wait for next year!

Christmas Time












Inspired by Kari K., I will try to be better about posting pictures. Our first Christmas with Aubrey was wonderful. Of course she really didn't understand the importance of the day but she did great throughout the week. We traveled to Madison and spend lots of time with both of our families. Aubrey's schedule was all messed up by week's end but she was a trooper and never got fussy. She enjoyed meeting several new great cousins and other relatives. Of course she received way too many clothes to add to her already overpopulated closet. I won't even list how many six months outfits she has now. Today I just started putting away three month outfits, some still fit but she has so many six months outfits to wear I need to start being deliberate about making sure she is able to wear them before she outgrows them. The highlighted outfit is the pink/brown fur jacket from Aunt Lori, can't wait to post pictures of it.
Here are some pictures of our time with family.
