Summer Time

It has been a long time since I have sat down to blog, sorry about that.  We have been very busy since summer started.  Aubrey is doing great.  We just spent a wonderful two weeks with Grandma Sue (Julie's mom) in town.  Aubrey calls her "Du."  She is starting to really talk a lot and even in short sentences.  She is growing in confidence as well.  She always wants to do everything herself and will tell you,  "Aubee, Aubee!" when you try to do things for her.  She is so much fun.  If you want her to get really animated, ask her about Shamu--we have been to SeaWorld three times now and she LOVES it.  She loves stickers, coloring, and pushing around her baby doll stroller.  We converted her crib to a toddler bed.  There were about three or four days of transition where she was always on the floor when we went in to check on her, but now she is doing great with the change.  She climbed out of her crib one afternoon when, apparently, she wasn't ready for her nap.  I watched to see if she could do it and caught her before she hit the ground.  That was the end of her crib days.  

We are looking forward to heading back to Alaska for a nice long visit in a couple of weeks.  We miss our friends so much.  I'll try and blog again soon.
