She is Walking!

Aubree now perfers walking to crawling most of the time, so I think we can offically say she is now walking! She still falls A LOT, but she's walking a lot too! I had to take some pictures of her this morning after church since she looks so summery! The perks of owning half a childrens' boutique business, is getting ADORABLE clothes for her! I didn't even keep this dress at the beginning, but fell in love with after I tried it on her a few weeks ago...so we kept it too! I made her red bow to go along with it and I think it makes the outfit complete! Enjoy!

Aubree's 10 Month Post By Daddy

10 Things Daddy loves about Aubree - just in time for Father's Day

1 How she slaps her Mommy in the face when she gets fiesty (pronounced FIstEE (Long i) by her Mommy)

2 How her facial expressions look just like Anderson when he was around that age

3 How she just started walking all stiff-legged like Frankenstien

4 How she has on a different outfit everytime I turn around

5 How she eats everything in sight (unlike a certain 2 year old that eats nothing in sight - looking at you Grayson)

6 How she screams her head off in the carseat everytime I put her in there - I must have at least one sarcastic remark on the list.

7 How she flirts with me by turning her head away from me and then back just to smile and do it again

8 How she thinks shes winning when the boys wrestle with her.

9 How she pulls Mommys clothes off when she is trying to get ready on Saturday and Sunday morning - I could probably stop this but I see no reason why I should. On to 10...

10 How she crawls/walks to me when I get home from work and hugs me for a good 30 seconds before its back to her favorite - Mommy

Baby Steps * Updated*

Is what's been happening around here the last few days. As bittersweet as it is my little gal is swiftly turning into a toddler! (Even though she is still considered a baby for 2 months and 6 days...) She has been putting two steps together yesterday and today and then she will drop to crawl since it's quicker! She is growing up SO fast!

She just took 11 consecutive steps.... oh my!

Our Weekend

We got back at midnight last night from our whirlwind weekend of Brandon's baby sister's wedding in Chattanooga, TN! Amanda was so happy!!! I loved seeing her that way! It was beautiful and exhausting!! Brandon, Anderson and I were in the wedding, so my WONDERFUL parents went along to help us out with the "babies" as I call them! Bless them!!! The wedding was on top of Lookout Mountain and it was a breathtaking view! Hot, but breathtaking!!! Back to the exhausting part.... Whenever we travel, I always get to take care of the "babies" at night. Aubree for obvious reasons and b/c she would love to just permanently be attached to my hip and Grayson because he's just still a mama's boy... what can I say?? Anyway, since Aubree was in the middle of the virus that Grayson has last week (fever, snot, crankiness) she wanted to sleep on top of me. If I sleep with Grayson, he likes to sleep right underneath me. Needless to say, I slept (or attempted to sleep) like a mommy sandwich for two nights! I was SOOO tired, and had a touch of the virus as well... but I trudged onward! We did the rehearsal thing, bridesmaids' luncheon thing, took a break out on Saturday afternoon to see the movie Up with the kids, and Rehearsal dinner thing all on Saturday. The wedding was Sunday at 2pm and poor little Aubree got sunburned. The cashier at Target today shunned me for letting my baby get sun! I felt like a horrible mother! Anyway, here are some pictures from our weekend!

The Beautiful Beaming Bride


The most handsome little ring bearer I have ever seen! He was really in love with the little flower girl! I didn't get a picture of his feet, but he had to wear his crocs, b/c they ordered him the wrong size shoes! I took all six jibbitz out though!
Look how beautiful it was


He was dying to take that jacket off!!!
Hanging out with Pappy

Mommy's sweet girl! Mattie insisted on taking this picture! I was eating a cracker.. that's why I look funny!




Snyder Family cuttin' a rug!



Snoozing on Mattie
Mattie and Pappy took the kids to walk around the Aquarium on Saturday while we were busy, and Anderson had a ball in the water! They didn't go into the aquarium, b/c I didn't know how Grayson would react to the animals. For those of you who know him well, he's not too fond of them! Can't imagine how he would react to a shark!!






Good job if you made it this far! If anyone is looking for me in the next few days, I'll be home cleaning my house!!! We have our 5th showing on Wednesday since listing the house 2 1/2 weeks ago! Yeah!!! My floors and pottys have NEVER seen so much TLC!!
Nighty Night!
