Chunky Monkey

Aubry had a weight check yesterday because she just didn't seem to be gaining enough. She is supposed to gain an ouce a day, but she was only gaining 3/4 of an ounce a day. She was born at 7-13, left the hospital at 7-4, went up to 7-11 last Monday, and yesterday she was 8-7!!! She gained PLENTY of weight! Hooray!

In other news:

Last week we got a special delivery from one of Bryan's coworkers. The horse is adorable and the cookies are delicious!

We went for our first walk last Friday, enjoying the beautiful weather. We also visited the Culver's drive-thru for some ice cream!

Saturday was my first time away from Aubry. I went to go chaperone prom. While I was gone, Bryan took her to visit Grandma Nancy and Grandpa Mike. She slept the whole time, so I know she didn't miss me too much =)

Sunday was Kyri's baptism, and the cousins met for the first time!

Then, yesterday, Aubry met her other cousin.... BOGEY!

Here's Aubry, just hanging out. One of the few times during the day that her eyes are open and she's not crying =)

Looking forward to more updates as they happen.

I'm so glad I got to finally meet you this weekend. Thank you for coming to my Baptism party! I can't wait to play dolls with you!

Morning Routine

I wake up between 5:15 and 5:40 to get ready for the day; am downstairs between 6 and 6:15 to check emails and watch any shows on the DVR that I am behind with. Kids start waking up around 7. The order varies; sometimes Aubry comes downstairs to snuggle for a few minutes before we go get M&G together, or, I have to get her out of bed after M&G are already up and changed. Breakfast begins. We change it up each morning between apple toast, veggie muffins, pop tarts, pancakes, cereal, and yogert. On Mondays and Tuesdays, there is no rush to get cleaned up and ready to leave; Grandma Karen arrives around 8. Other days we scramble to get hands and face washed, shoes on, coats on, toys put away, and to-go bags ready (backpacks and/or ballet bag, and diaper bag). Our goal is to be in the car ready to go by 8:15. The drop off at Grandma Nancy's is followed with dropping off Aubry at preschool at 8:55. And then I am off to work.
