Everything happens for a reason and one should never second guess that reason.

Mother's Day and Aubrey is 5 months old

As we all know Mother's Day was yesterday and it was my very first one! It was such a great day to spend with Aubrey, Randy and the rest of my family. The day started off great with us going to church. As always Aubrey was a big hit, and everyone wanted to see and hold her. After lunch Randy surprised me with a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a gift card to get my nails done. Laura, Chris and Teagan came over and all the guys made dinner (steak, baked potatoes, and salad)!! They even topped it off with an amazing strawberry pound cake. It was nice for all the girls to hang out and chat and not have to worry about dinner or dishes. For the rest of the night we just hung out and watched tv.

Today Aubrey is 5 months old! I can't believe another month has come and gone, she is growing up to fast for me. This past week Aubrey has found her feet and now she can't get enough of them. Every time she is on her back that is the first thing she goes for. Were still rolling over from tummy to back but not as often but she has been able to roll from her back to her side but then can't figure out the rest.

She is also learning to sit up on her own. The other day I sat her up and she was able to stay there for about 15 seconds before she started to topple over. Aubrey is really enjoying the solid food she gets. We have tried everything but carrots and pears. Her favorites are Banana's and Apple sauce. She doesn't so much care for Squash or Sweet Potatoe's. We have come to learn that she really doesn't like the oatmeal we were giving her. She cried everytime she ate it, yet she doesn't cry with the fruits or veggies.
