Auburn update

Auburn has changed so much in the last month. I can't believe that in a week she will be 10 months old. The time has gone so quickly.

For 3 months, the only word we heard was "dada", and she finally learned how to say "mama". Although she usually only says "mama" when she is upset or wants something., and we hear a lot of "dada" when she is happy.

She has finally figured out how to use her legs to help her crawl. For awhile she would drag herself across the floor with her arms. She loves the freedom and chance to explore that crawling gives her.

Auburn loves to clap her hands! She is always giving her self a round of applause. It mainly happens when she is eating, especially if she is feeding herself. Sometimes Simon gets a round of applause when he gets home from work.

She will give kisses and thinks is is pretty funny. Her kisses are usually more of an open mouth slobber. We love them though! She also thinks is it funny to make noises when we go over cobblestone in her stroller, so that her voice will vibrate.

We just love our little girl! Here are some of the latest pictures. I am a little late in putting them up. These were taken last month.

I think she and Annabelle would be great friends... they seem to be "in" to the same things. And yes, we love slobbery kisses too!

P.S. I went private with my blog and didn't have your email address to invite you. Email me (stacy.pettersen@gmail.com) and I'll send you the link!

I love the first picture with her ability to turn her tongue over. That's talent (and apparently genetic, so who gets to claim that trait?)!

It's a ......

We found out last past week that we are expecting .... a baby boy! We are super excited! I had a feeling ever since we found out that I was pregnant that would be having a boy. Auburn came to the ultrasound with us and repeatedly said "baby" while we looked at the screen. We are excited for her to have a little brother. We just need to start thinking of baby boy names ....

Auburn's blessing

On Sunday, November 23rd, Simon was able to bless our precious little Auburn. Grandpa and Grandma Hill were able to be here for the blessing. I know that Papi and Grandma Little wished they could of been here as well. We had an earlier visit from the Littles when Auby was just a few weeks old. Grandma Hill made her beautiful dress and Grandma Perkins made her blanket. This weekend we had our first snowfall. The temperature was frigid and there was still snow on the ground. It still turned out to be a wonderful day. Auburn was her perfect little self. She didn't cry at all and her Daddy gave her a beautiful blessing. We are so blessed to have her in our lives!
