Friends

We have had a very busy December. A lot of people came over to visit us and we have gone and done a lot of stuff. We have met friends at the mall to do some Christmas shopping and grab lunch, had friends over for dinner, and visited co-workers. We even got to visit a kinder-music class with some friends. So much fun!

Aubrey meets her Great-Uncle Gary.

Our friends Marci and Trey came to Dallas with their new daughter Caroline. She was born in Bryan, TX only 3 days after Aubrey.

Heather (my high-school friend) was in town for the holidays and to perform a show with her band. We met up at North Park to do some last minute shopping and catching up.

We had the Lee's over for dinner. Here is Aaron and his son Asher with Aubrey. Both kids were in their pj's and ready for bed at this point in the evening.

After college I move home and started working for a wonderful family in Dallas. I helped their daughter Catherine with her homework, helped her study for tests, and would occasionally drive her around town to do various things. Well, 7 years later she is all grown up and home from college. I was so excited when she found me on Facebook. We set up a time to get together over her winter break so she could meet Aubrey and we could catch up. She is an amazing girl!

My sorority sister, Kara, was in town for the holidays and stopped by to meet Aubrey. This was their first time to meet. Thanks Kara for coming to see us! Aubrey loves you.

Aubrey's First Christmas

Christmas was amazing. We had Christmas with my family and Alan's parents joined us this year. It was so much fun for everyone to be together for Aubrey's first Christmas. We are so blessed.

Christmas Eve Day!! This was her "hanging out at the house" outfit.

Aubrey was our "Santa Baby" this Christmas!

Grand-Mimi sang Aubrey to sleep on Christmas Eve. So cute!

On Christmas morning, the family goes in to see Aubrey after she woke up from her morning nap. It is so cute. She smiles so big when you say "Good Morning".

Alan is so excited to open his gift from Aubrey!

Grand-Mimi bought Aubrey a sweet little outfit at a store called Little Lamb in Richardson. It has a cute hat that goes with it.

Cici picked out this outfit fromthe Children's Place. Dress, hat, tights, and a bow...Aubrey is set!

Uncle Brian gave Aubrey 8 Dr. Seuss and 4 Eric Carle board books. Aubrey loves them.

Daddy bought Aubrey an outfit for cute. He picked it out himself.

The front of her onesie says "Santa's" and the back it says "Helper".

It's Snowing!!!!

We got snow in Dallas on Christmas Eve. So, we dressed Aubrey in her snow suit and took her out to experience her first snow. She seemed to be very interested.

Caddie did not want to be left out.

Jingle Bell Run

This was our first year to participate in the Dallas Jingle Bell Run. It was held in the evening on December 22nd and was so much fun. They give you Jingle Bells to tie on your shoes. The streets will filled with jingling!!

Cici's Christmas Luncheon

Aubrey and I joined my mom and Mimi at The Chocolate Angel for her Sunday school class annual Christmas luncheon. We had a great time and my mom's friends loved meeting Aubrey. I would have to say she had a pretty good time too.

Look at that sweet girl!

At the end of the luncheon she finally passed out. She was so tired.

Aubrey Speaks....A Lot

Aubrey has started baby talk this month and it has been so much fun to listen to her. She loves her voice. She will babble in the car, when we play with her, and especially when she sees her lovie. Her are a few more pictures of our big girl.

Sophie the giraffe was one of her favorite Christmas presents. Thanks Jae and Kai!

Cici and Grampy (a.k.a. My Mom and Dad)

Grampy and Aubrey talk to each other.

Aubrey loves to listen to books. She also likes to talk when you read. Do you think she thinks she is reading?
