Wednesday was a big day for the entire family! We celebrated Aubrey's first birthday with a few friends and neighbors. We had cake, ice cream, all types of animal crakers, candy galore, and punch! The kids had a game room, bowling alley and art studio set up in the basement for entertainment. Aubrey did such a wonderful job. She played and played and played and had the best night sleep :)
It is hard to believe she is one, but I cherish every moment. As she gets older and more interactive, she is a true delight! She is really a good little girl and her dad and I are so happy!
Aubrey checking out the cake and just not sure what to do! Very delicately she tastes the cake... Mom smashes her hand into the cake to break it up so she can get to it!
At the end of the night, we realized we hadn't taken a family picture!
On Thursday we went to the doctor to get her one year shots. She weighed in at 20lbs, 11oz so she is still in the 50%. She is 28-3/4" tall (50%) and her head is 17-7/8" (55%). She did really good with her shots but could not get the flu shot and the MMR shot because she is allergic to eggs. We have to go to the allergist for him to give her the shots in case there is an allergic reaction. But the NP was very happy and just loved on Aubrey. She did really good but now understands pain so the shots were a litle emotional for us both!!! Overall she did really well and calmed down quickly.
Now that she is one, we have cut down to one or two bottles a day. Mom is working at removing them completely so we will see how this goes. Over the weekend she pooped in her toilet twice so that was big (I have pictures but thought she would kill me one day if I posted them)! She isn't walking yet but I feel that she is close. She stands up really well and we are having her walk with us more to get her used to doing it. We aren't rushing her, just giving her confidence!!!
To everyone who has been so wonderful to us, THANK YOU! It takes a village to raise a child and I am so happy to say that we have such a wonderful group of friends and family :)
