Mixed Feelings
So, today was a big step... we dropped Aubrey off at her first day of preschool. She knew it was coming and she was ready... sort of. We have been talking about it since I signed her up in January. Mommy would drop her off and pick her up after she was done learning and playing for the day. How if she needed anything, she could ask Mrs. Ossi. That she would have SO much fun meeting new friends, learning new songs and games... so I packed her requested lunch of PB & J (no crust and cut into triangles),...
Aubrey-1, Daddy-0
Yet another conversation between Aubrey and her daddy that I have to write down so I don't forget it...Aubrey: I want to read two stories tonight daddy.Kevin: Sounds good to me! Aubrey: Let's read Barney and Dora!Little did Kevin know (but I'm sure Aubrey did) that she had chosen two of the longst stories on her bookshelf. Kevin: Wow Aubrey, that was a long story. I don't think we'll be able to read the next one. Aubrey: (Ever so innocently) Why not daddy?Kevin: Well, because it's so long and we've already read a very long story tonight. Aubrey: Oh that's...
Not To be Outdone

I think he's been raiding the fridge in the wee hours of the night. Even though I know you aren't suppose to compare your children, I couldn't help it. I looked back through Aubrey's baby book to see where her weight and length were at this stage and she wasn't even close. She wasn't 17 1/2 pounds until somewhere between nine and ten months. Owen will most likely outweigh Aubrey......
