Aubrey's 2nd Birthday

Aubrey turned 2 on June 11 and we had her party on Sunday. Aubrey loves Dora the Explorer so that was the theme for her birthday as you can see from her invitation.






It was a little overcast at first, but we ended up having a great day. It didn't rain until the very end, but the kids enjoyed running in the rain! We are so blessed to have so many friends and family come and celebrate our little girl - she couldn't have had more fun. In the slide show, the picture of her in the car seat is at the end of the day when she completely passed out from sugar and exhaustion. Aubrey has become a loving, intelligent, and spirited little girl. She loves her babies and being a mama to them. She loves her kitchen and is always cooking us something. She is a great eater and still loves all types of fruit - since she was a baby. Her vocabulary is huge and can speak in short sentences. She can count to 10 correctly most of the time, she can even count in spanish - thanks Dora. She loves her baby brother and helps out a lot. Her only fault with him is when she wants to be held by mommy - which can be a lot at times. Aiden still wants to be held by mommy all the time too - which can create a problem. But I will hold my babies as long as they let me as this is something I know I will miss the most when they don't want me too anymore (I dread this day and hope it never comes).



On her actual birthday, we also had her two year old visit and Aiden's two month old visit with Dr. Dan. For my memories, Aubrey and Aiden are my big little girl and boy!

Aubrey 2 years: 29 lb (97%) and 33 1/2 in (90%)

Aiden a little over 2 months: 13 lb 15 oz (90%) and 23 1/2 in (75%)





My maternity leaves is going faster and faster and going back to work is coming soon unfortunately. We have Aiden's baptism this coming Sunday and then the following weekends wedding season will begin with showers, bachelorette parties, and weddings every weekend until the end of August! Summer will fly by.
