Happy 2 Months Aubrey!

2 months already!!! WHOA!!!!! Aubrey is growing rapidly (literally). She is 11lbs 7oz and 22 3/4 inches long. That's 2lbs bigger than Dylan was as this point! She's already sleeping in her room. I'm OK with it, sorta. I miss having my baby next to me but we're all sleeping better. That girl is LOUD. She grunt and snorts all night long. It's actually kind of funny. Aubrey is smiling and cooing away. It's awesome! She's grasping our fingers and is more aware of her environment. Still nursing like a champ, which is obvious from her weight gain :)

New Years 2011

We headed to Graeagle this year to celebrate New Years with a great group of friends, the Coldani's, Busalacchi's & the Avansino's. There was so much snow, it was beautiful!! We had a wonderful weekend playing in the snow, eating, drinking, more playing in the snow, more eating and more drinking.

Nico helped with Aubrey. I think he's ready for a sibling :)

Marc made his famous gin fizzes complete with virgin ones for the kids & Julie


We played in the snow a ton! We would bundle the kids up and go outside for a bit until they were freezing, come in warm up then go back out.

Why is my kid always the one crying?!?!

Julie brought food coloring and spray bottles so the kids could "paint" the snow. It was a big hit!

One afternoon I ran my own little day care in the bedroom. All 4 kids were behaving and actually playing nicely!

Happy New Year! Dylan went to bed normal time but woke up to celebrate at midnight.

Christmas 2010

Merry Christmas!!! We had a wonderful Christmas! Dylan was SO much fun this year. He helped with everything from making gifts, wrapping gifts, opening gifts (even one's that were not his). He even helped make tamales! Aubrey was wonderful as well. She ate and slept great and let everyone hold her. We were lucky enough to have Nick's parents, sister an brother, my parents and my grandparents here to celebrate with us.

Krissy sent me this link to create a video from Santa that was personalized for Dylan. He LOVED it! He watched it over and over for 20 minutes straight. He would answer when Santa asked questions, and he showed Santa our stockings and "baby Aubrey".

He helped Nana & Papa make tamales at Jama's on Christmas eve. He mixed masa and even made his own tamale! I'm pretty sure there was only masa in it though. Maybe he was making a vegetarian one for his Auntie Amy.

Christmas Eve night we went to Jama's to exchange gifts with Susan's family and feast on tamales.

When we got home Dylan was so excited to change into his PJ's and put cookies & milk out for Santa. It was adorable! Santa thoroughly enjoyed the cookies and milk :)

Dylan, Aubrey, Bob & Benito must've been good this year because Santa filled their stockings to the brim!

Then it was time for presents. Oh man did we have presents!!! And breakfast, LOTS of yummy breakfast!

Dylan made a special gift for his Daddy this year.


He even opened presents that weren't his. Thankfully that one was Nick's.

Thank you Auntie Julie for our pajamas!

Christmas night my mom & dad hosted all of us at their house. It was a wonderful night with yummy food!
