It's A Boy!

Baby kicking Mommy...
Baby waving Hi!

Much to Aubrie's dismay, she is getting a baby brother not a baby sister. At this point in time, she is in denial, and will tell anyone who asks that we don't know what kind of baby we are getting. We have about 16 weeks to convince her that a baby brother is a good thing...she won't have to share her princesses!

Looks like we need to start buying blue clothes...just about everything we have for a baby is pink! More ultrasound pictures to come soon.

ER

Aubrie made her first trip to the emergency room today. After tripping on the first stair outside our house, she went head first into the second stair, leaving a very bloody hole in her forehead. 3+ hours and some dermabond later, she seems no worse for the wear.

Daddy's Breaking the Kitchen...Again

BEFORE

DURING

AFTER

We started the major part of our kitchen renovation this weekend. Ripping out upper cabinets and sofits, taking the linoleum off the walls (who does that), peeling the wall paper off the remaining walls, and re-dry walling. Unfortunately Aubrie does not care for demolition, she gets very upset whenever daddy "breaks" something. I guess she will have to get used to it if she is going to live in the same house as Daryl.

Thanks Easter Bunny!

The Easter Bunny brought Aubrie a great big playground for her backyard...now all Daddy has to do is put it together...

Shopping

Aubrie decided that she wanted to go shopping at the mall today. I told her that she couldn't go to the mall in her PJ's. Apparently Mommy did not move fast enough...Aubrie yelled to me from upstairs that she was ready. She laid out everything that she wanted to wear, including pink socks and pink underwear. I am very impressed that everything matched.
On a completely different topic, Daryl and I really have to watch what we say, as Aubrie is developing a potty mouth. Her new favorite phrase is "Damn It". Usually used when yelling at the dog for something.

Baby etc.

We have finished the baby's room, all we need now is the baby. Only 5 more months to go. We went to the doctor again today. Apparently I now have low iron, so I get to take another pill everyday. Wonderful. I am also still losing weight instead of gaining, so I got reprimanded. The doctor thinks that I am not eating enough. I tried to explain that the same thing happened with Aubrie and that I more than made up for the weight loss at the end, but she still said to eat more. Oh well. Next month we get our ultra sound, so we can find out if Aubrie is getting the baby sister that she so desperately wants.

We went to the mall last night to get Aubrie's birthday pictures done. A bit late, but after a few minor accidents (Aubrie likes to jump off of things) her face was pretty beat up so we wanted to wait until the cuts and scrapes healed. Anyways the woman at Penny's was awful but the girl doing the Easter Bunny shots was great. After meeting so many characters at Disney this summer, Aubrie is no longer afraid of big furry animals.

Sleepy

Way too much fun with my friends Gracie, Mac & Eli!
