Aubrie made her first trip to New York City this past Saturday. We took the train into the city, which she loved. We then took the subway around the city with our friends from Buffalo, who were there for the whole weekend.
We had lunch in Little Italy.
Congratulations to Justin and Jessica on their wedding this past Saturday. Everything was beautiful!

On another note, we have still not picked a name, but thanks for the suggestions that are coming in. I found a really cool website that lists the top ten girl & boy names by hospital for last year. It is interesting to see what the popular names are in your area as opposed to the top 10 from across the country.
The most common question people ask regarding the baby is if we have picked out a name yet. With Aubrie we had her first and middle name picked out months in advance and let everyone know the initials so they could start guessing names. With this baby, we cannot seem to pick out any names. I think that is partly due to the fact that Aubrie had me convinced it was a girl, so I had a girl name ready to go. We can also throw the fact that there are SEVEN babies of family, friends and co-workers due within the next three months, not to mention Babies Ella and Natalie who recently arrived. We don't want to pick out a name and have a friend or relative use the same thing. But for those of you who are curious, the front runners are A, O & T. Aubrie suggests that we call him Baby Boy.
Since our kitchen is now fully functioning, we are going to take a break from it so that we can build Aubrie's play set in the back yard. (mainly we have some lighting and tiling left to do in the kitchen). We also want to get the fence up in the back yard since Barron does not care for his leash. We started building the play set last night in the family room. The number of parts and pieces is ridiculous. After 3+ hours of working, all we have is a fort roof and a couple ladders. 
Yes it is mid April in New York and Aubrie spent the weekend swimming in the back yard. A bit crazy, but temps were in the high 70's/low 80's...this better not be a sign of things to come this summer, or I will be one miserable pregnant woman!
On another note, while Aubrie was enjoying the outdoors, Daryl was busy working on the kitchen remodel. All of the cabinets are in and the stove, microwave and refrigerator are working. Unfortunately we still do not have plumbing in the kitchen. Hopefully by the end of the week.
