Happy 8 Months, Aubrey

Well, 11-11-11 passed by and it was significant for us because it was Aubrey's 8 month birthday already! As you can tell by my attempt for a "nice 8 mo pic" - it just doesn't happen when she is so busy with everything else around her :)

Here is what she's been up to lately: 
  • likes to squirm...a lot
  • has started to throw a fit when things are taken away from her
  • likes to flail her arms and legs around while shaking her whole body while sitting
  • probably wishes she could just take off but hasn't figured it out quite yet
  • has started to pull herself up in the tub...will pull herself up if you hold her hands
  • still refuses tummy time
  • likes to stand against things
  • is eating pieces of real food
  • watches Daddy leave in the morning and waits for him to come home in excitement 

Mommy and Aubrey both catching a nap

time for the winter coats - she drowns in it b/c the smallest they come is 12 months

Great Grandma Kaisand gave Aubrey an old "Gumby" and she loves to chew on it

8 mo pic attempt #1: grabbing the sign


#2: throwing herself around in refusal 

#3: grabbing the camera 

#4: probably the best one

 #5: reaching for the sign and magazine 

#6: (after her bath) - blinking 

#7: reaching again for the sign 

#8: ahhhh, maybe this is the best?

New Experiences

Aubrey has had a lot of new experiences lately and here are just a few things to keep you updated:)

Sporting her two bottom teeth very nicely


 snooping from the candy dish


 sitting in the office chair...it's really fun when Mommy takes me for a ride


 (not a new thing) but still blowing lots of "raspberries"


eating a banana from a mesh feeder and making a MESS


 looking adorable eating squash:)


new hat and mittens for winter


eating mum mums sure are yum yum!


I probably should not have showed her, but it was too cute of her standing in her crib
Look, no hands, mom!
