Some fun facts about Aubrey from Mommy and Daddy…

What is your favorite memory during her first year of life?
Wow, where do we start? This entire first year has been amazing, and there have been so many wonderful memories!! Being a parent brings you so much joy & a love that is indescribable. One of our favorite memories would be the moment we heard our daughter’s sweet cry and held her in our arms for the very first time. Another one of our favorite memories is our daughter’s sweet smile that just lights up a room & her precious little giggles. One of daddy’s would be the way she greets him with such excitement & love after a long day at work.

Do you have a funny story or something that happened in her first year that you’d like to share?
One funny memory we have is when we were getting Aubrey ready for bed with our usual bedtime routine, she was around 9-10 months of age. We were reading her a bedtime story, “God gave us you”. Mommy had been working with Aubrey on getting her to say “Ma,Ma”. We were at a part in the book where we were talking about the momma cub and we emphasized “Ma, Ma” to Aubrey & at that moment she looked up at us and loudly blurted out in her sweet little voice “Da,Da”! We both busted out laughing as it couldn’t have been more perfect timing.

What age/month has been your favorite and why?
Each month and stage is fun and unique in its own way, bringing in new joys and challenges. It is so much fun to watch our daughter grow and learn each and everyday. The last few months have been some of our favorites. She is walking everywhere and loves babbling. We love watching your personality shine through, you are so fun & active! One of mommy’s recent favorites is when you started giving kisses on the lips, it is the sweetest & melts my heart!

One word to describe your baby is…Lovable

Favorites:
Animal: I wouldn’t say she has a favorite animal quite yet however she does especially love her touch and feel book with farm animals in it!
Food: Yogurt & fruits
Toy: Some of her favorite toys are riding toys (especially when daddy pushes her around the whole house, she screams with excitement!), blocks, or pretty much anything you can make noise with. You love helping mommy in the kitchen you especially love to open up all the drawers & cabinets and get out everything you possibly can! You are quite the lil helper these days!
