Beach Day {one of many}

 I can't even believe this little peanut is almost one! She is such a joy and has so much personality.

11 Months

Our little ReeRee is 11 months old!

She walks and still likes to crawl, but on her hands and feet, not knees.

She talks so much and it comes out sounding like German.

She literally is into everything.

Loves to jiggle to toilet handle, tear and eat the toilet paper, get into the trash - I have had to put hair ties around all the cubbards.

She is climbing on and into things like the couch, inside the ottoman, and laundry basket.

She really is the happiest little lady! She loves being with her friends, LOVES! She giggles and gets so excited.

She nurses 5 times a day still, but trying to ween her to 2-3 times a day. She'll drink formula and sometimes whole milk.

Still an amazing eater! She says "num nums" when she is hungry.

Sometime she'll even pull down my shirt to nurse...eek.

She can swim with arm floaties.

She is loving her binkie for more than just going to bed.

She puts her head on my shoulder when she is tired.

She can still wear some 6-9 month clothes.

She can blow kisses and makes a smack noise with her lips...so cute!

She is obsessed with falling face first onto pillows.

Orlando Trip

 We went on a quick weekend getaway to Orlando with some great friends, the Miller's and the Ward's. We had a lot of fun! We hope to make this a monthly tradition? haha maybe that's too much, but I wish. Our trip consisted of the temple, H&M, and Del Taco. All of which aren't in Naples, so we enjoyed every moment of the trip.

Aubree was in heaven being with her besties all weekend. They would have slept in the same pack 'n' play if we would've let them.

Swimming Lessons & 10 Months Old

 Aubree started swimming lessons. She is surprisingly catching on really fast! She kicks, floats, jumps to you from the ledge, and doesn't mind getting dunked. Fortunately, Daddy was able to come to this session :). Ree is obsessed with her Daddy and is his twin!

 Ree loves having swimming lessons with her buddy/boyfriend Holden.

 "Look Mom, bubbles!"

 

 Aubree turned 10 months on April 22, 2012. She seems like a big kid to me now. I've heard that is how you feel with your first...it hasn't hit me yet that she is almost ONE. I can't even believe it! Seriously, I think I'll cry when it hits me.

About Ree

Says Momma, Dadda, and speaks German (well it sounds like it).

She is still nursing 5 times a day.

Great eater. 

Loves to eat baby goldfish, veggie straws, and eggs.

She crawls out of her Bumbo when I'm not looking.

Throws everything out of her crib.

Hides under the crib when playing Hide 'n' Seek.
Points to dogs and birds.

Giggles so much when Daddy chases her.

Likes to be thrown on the bed.

Can walk with you holding one hand.

Stands on her own.

Can be entertained for awhile with dental floss, a wallet, measuring cups, and of course things she shouldn't be playing with.

Obsessed with opening the cabinets, peeking in to see what she can get into.

Likes it when the dishwasher is open (always goes for the knives, why?)

Loves drinking out of her sippy cup.

Sleeps 11.5 hours every night. 

Doesn't mind getting slammed by the beach waves, she loves it actually.

She has bonked her head a countless number of times, cries for a bit and wants me to hold her.

Got her first bloody lip by banging it on the ottoman.

She has 7 little chompers, she likes to bite sometimes OUCH!

She looks exactly like her Daddy.

She has super blonde fine hair, wondering if it'll be curly like mine?

When you start to sing "Patty Cake", she claps her hands.

Giggles so much when other kids are smiling at her.

Loves to be on Daddy's shoulders.

When you tell her no don't touch that, she shakes her head, then smiles and touches it.

She knows when she's being naughty because she'll look at me with a grin...stinker.

Loves to swing at the park.

Grandpa & Nana J came to visit: Part 1

Grandpa and Nana J Stapley came to visit us! We loved every second. They came at the best time of the year because the weather was perfect, the gators were out, and the beach was amazing.

First things first, we went to the beach.

Mmm sand is yummy!

Showing off how amazing our sunsets are is a must. We clapped...that's normal. PS how cute is little Ree in this picture!?

Then, of course, we drove 30 minutes southeast to Everglade City and found some wild alligators down a dirt road. Awesome. We saw about 20! Scary.

My dad had to mail a postcard to my grandma from this tiny post office. Coolest dad.

Stay tuned for Part 2. I'm sure you can't wait!

Nine Months

This little nugget is so cute, I can't even take it. She does so much already...growing up too fast! Aubree weighs 16 lbs 10 oz - 15% she's a petite gal. She is 27 inches tall.

She is almost walking. She eats everything she sees on the floor. She loves food and starting to want what we eat. She still loves to nurse every 3 hours. She has 5 teeth, ouchie.

She waves hi and bye. She points to birds. She likes us to read books to her before bed. She dances when you tell her to shake her booty.

She is getting clingy eek. She loves loves loves her dad! She says dada, mama, baby. She is a chatterbox! Talks all day long.

She loves being with her friends and likes to use them to help her stand up. She can still wear 3-6 months clothes. She hates getting her diapers changed and putting clothes on.

She's getting more bored while being in the car - without fail I can get her to sleep if I put primary songs on. She shakes her head no, but doesn't know what it means.

She does this silly thing with her tongue - lizard like and makes a noise while doing it. She claps when she does something cool.

She likes to play with everything other than her toys. She likes to push cars on the tile. She crawls with one knee on the ground and the other with her foot.

iPhone Pictures

I haven't been very good at bringing my camera places. So here is a little iPhone dump of pictures from the past couple weeks.

Aubree's friend Collette Rhodes. They would follow each other, so cute!

More of Aubree's friends - Delilah and Chloe Miller...their baby sister Alice is Aubree's age.

We go to the beach probably 3-4 times a week, we love it!
