While Matt and I cleaned up a little before the LSU game, I found Aubrey playing with her princesses.

Christmas 2010

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. Aubrey had a better idea of what was going on this year and eagerly counted down the days until Santa's arrival.

On Christmas Eve day, we went to the Audubon Zoo and discovered a great secret. If the weather is cooperating, this is the best day to go to the zoo. There were no crowds, no lines. We made it around the entire zoo, and Aubrey had blast leading the way!

All dressed up on Christmas Eve.



It was definitely a Disney princess Christmas for Aubrey. If you ask her what Santa brought her, the two items she tells everyone are a suitcase and an umbrella.

The rest of Christmas was spent being silly with Grace and opening lots of presents. The two of them together means lots of laughing and chasing!

We even got a visit from our friend, Peyton, who was visiting his grandparents and families from North Carolina.

Aubrey does letter work almost everyday at school. She learns the sounds and then practices writing the letters that she's working on. She used to be able to recognize one or two letters in a word. So if she was looking at a sign or one of Matt's t-shirts, she would say, "There's an S" or "There's an A". Now she can identify almost every letter on Matt's t-shirts that he wears to school each day(Klein ISD Football, for example). A few weeks ago she brought home a letter sheet that said "cat", "hat", and "mat". I asked her if she could sound out the words for me, and she did! Here's she is this morning before school, showing me how to sound out "cat".

Hopefully as this project goes on, she'll become less aware of the camera.

Christmas Dance Recital

Aubrey has been enjoying her dance class for the past few months and was very excited to participate in her first dance recital, until it was time to go up and dance. She didn't want to go at first, but joined the group about halfway through.
