Overdue!

I know, I know, its been wayy too long! Life has been super crazy! Oh, where to begin.. 

My little baby is getting soo big! Aubrey is 11 1/2 weeks!! Almost 3 months already! :( I must say, I am very impressed with her, I may be a bit biased though, but, she holds her head up so well, I mean even better than babies that are older than her! She has sat up by herself, although it wasn't for long, and she doesn't do it often, but hey, its a start! And, my favorite, she is "talking" all the time! I swear, its the best noise ever! It is just so sweet to hear her just chatting away in her bed or in the back seat, I love love love it! And in the mornings when we're getting ready she just gets so excited when she sees me, she just smiles and starts cooing! awww!! I can't get enough of her! :) 

All I have to say is that I am so lucky to be able to go to work and take my baby with me! Goodness, I would miss out

 on so much if she wasn't there with me, I feel so bad for the moms that don't get to be with their child all day, I can't imagine how hard that must be! You would think that I would like the break of not being able to take her to work with me, but so not true. I love it. I mean, when I'm home I don't mind someone else taking care of her for a bit, but even then I still like to hold her and feed her and all that. I start to miss her if I don't hold her after a while, even if she is just in the other room! haha!  

It is starting to get more time consuming and more involved, for lack of a better way to put it. Now that she is getting older she is awake more, so she needs more attention, which is totally fine, because she is more interactive now, which is way fun, but you get less time to get things done. 

I love taking her places. We still love going to the park down the street. This past Sunday, me, Aubrey, my sister Sarah and her son Collin, and my mom and Marvin, and my other sister Emily all went, we were there for hours! She took a nap, Collin played with this guy and his dog, me and Emily talked.. it was very nice. I just love getting her dressed and showing her off :) 

The nights are getting so much better! I usually feed her around 7:30 and then she goes to bed around 8-8:30 and then she is out till about 5 am when we get up for work! Granted, she sometimes fusses a bit during the night, but I just pop that paci back in and we're good to go! No more midnight and 2 am feedings! yay!! :)  

She is growing and gaining weight like a champ! She is in the 90th-95th percentile for babies her age! which is totally awesome! We were getting a little concerned because she was gaining alot of weight, but the Doc says she's A-OK! I have a very happy and healthy baby! No complaints here! :)

On a sadder note, my weight loss has seem to come to a stand still.. not good. I was doing really well for a while, then nada! I've really got to get in motion.. summer is just around the corner! My body has really seemed to be back to normal now, thank goodness! All these changes were really starting to bug me, but now its like I have never been pregnant! (except for those few extra lbs..) I must admit, I really do miss being pregnant! It is such a neat experience, and it has so many perks! lol! Its the weirdest thing, everyone has always told me that when you are in labor and delivery all modesty goes out the window and all the pain you just forget afterwards, if you didn't forget then no one would have children! But it is true, when you're in the moment you don't care who sees and what they see! And, yes, you do remember the pain and you swear you'll never go through all this again, but then as the weeks and months go by all those memories seem to blur and you don't remember it being all that bad. As  awful as I thought it was, I would go through it all again in a heart beat! :) 

I sure have rambled on about baby stuff.. but I just don't know what else there is to talk about?! haha, jk! :) Oh.. for all you die hard Bachelor fans, you may be interested in Dancing with the Stars! Our beloved Melissa is on there!! Check it out! :)

Ok, Well I guess that is all for now, if I remember something else I'll return!
