Week 20 Baptism & Henry's bday


This was a big week for our family. On Sunday, Aubrey was baptized at Visitation. And, contrary to popular belief, Laura did NOT catch fire when she stepped into the church! Aubs was a great 'baptism baby.' She slept through most of it, even when they placed the water on her head. By comparison, Henry screamed and  yelled the whole time! We were honored that April agreed to be Aubrey's godmother, just as she is Henry's. April had a defined part of the baptism, however no one would know that because Laura didn't listen to the priest and essentially did April's part!

After the baptism, all the grandparents and the Siffords came over to the house to celebrate Henry's birthday. Henry had a great time opening his presents. This was really the first time he really was fully into doing this. Aubrey was very interested in a piece a wrapping paper, but otherwise knew no difference. Though I am sure she loved being held by all her grandparents! She obviously was pretty tuckered out after the day because Aunt Jen was able to set her down on her changing pad and change her diaper without her even waking up! Seriously, that happened!





Happy Birthday HBo!

Some like presents, some like paper!

Week 19 - Did Bella do that?



This week Aubrey is four months old! Seems like these first four months with Aubs has flown by even faster than Henry's first four months. With this milestone brought another trip to the doctor (and shots! ). She is now 25 inches long, which is in the 75th percentile, and weighs 13.9lbs, which is in the 50th percentile. She is definitely outpacing her brother at this point!


The other development this week is that Aubrey has developed the ability to clear a room. The first few times, poor Bella had the stink blamed on her. However, we quickly figured out that Bella wasn't always around when the funk was present. Just unbelievable (and not ladylike at all)!
