All she wants to do is stand...

Aubrey can now pull herself up on furniture and other objects laying around, as you can see.

She also likes to stand in her crib when it's naptime. This is how I found her over the weekend shortly after putting her down for a nap. We lowered the crib to the lowest level later on that day.

The Onesie Says it All

34 days, 22 hours, 28 minutes, 35 seconds...

The 2007 BCS National Championship trophy paid a visit to Houston and of course we had to go see it. Thanks, Verizon! Geaux Tigers!



And just for kicks, here's Aubrey and Matt watching the game. She was less than 4 weeks old!

Dinnertime is Serious Business

Aubrey is a very serious eater.



She's also working on drinking from a cup.

Fun with Magazines

Look Ma-One Hand!

Aubrey's favorite activity is standing. She scoots to me, I stick out my hands, and she pulls herself up and stands. She can even take a few steps with me holding on. I did help her to the table. She hasn't quite figured out how to pull herself up on furniture. (Thank goodness!) I guess we'll be clearing off the coffee table soon! Here are a few of the action...

July Fun

I can't believe July is almost half-way over, especially since I haven't created any posts in July thus far. I'm not really sure where the days have gone. We had a fun 4th of July, when my parents, brother, and sister came in town for a visit. Aubrey had fun watching Aunt Megan dance with sparklers!

Aubrey turned 7 months on Saturday. Here are a few recent pictures of her having some fun...

Aubrey Can...

Read a good book.

Play piano.

Knock down blocks.


Take a bath in the big tub (inside her small tub).

Last Week

It's been over a week since I've posted. We had a very busy week last week. On Monday Aubrey went to the doctor for her 6-month check-up. She had a fun time until the 3 shots. She played with the paper on the examining table while we waited for the dr to come in, and Dr. Pope made her laugh when he swung her in the air to check how strong her arms were. She is now in the 75th % for her weight and length. She was 16 lbs, 12 oz and 26 in long. And her head is still in the 90th %-she definitely can't deny that Alger head!
On Tuesday, we got my car back from the shop. The first week I had it, someone hit me on my way home from work. It's as good as new now, since it is still brand new!
On Wednesday, I came home from work to no AC. The outside fan was running, but that was it. Luckily it had rained, so the house was cooler than it normally was at 5 pm, or it may have been unluckily, since the guy who fixed it said the lightning probably knocked out the part that went out. So, we all camped out downstairs where it was cooler, like we did during Aubrey's first few days home from the hospital, but none of really slept very good that night.
This weekend, Aubrey had a few new adventures. We went grocery shopping on Saturday, and placed her in the shopping cart without her carrier. It was definitely a new adventure for her being able to see all of the people and items in the grocery store. She eventually figured out we were putting stuff in the cart behind her and kept trying to lean back to see what was back there. On Saturday night, we went out to eat and put her in the high chair instead of propping the carrier with her in it on the upside-down high chair. She is definitely a people watcher, but I don't think people mind when babies stare.
Since it's been over a week since I've posted any pictures, I'll post a few in the next post...

Nap Time Take 2

And this is what I found when I went to check on her during her afternoon nap...

Needless to say, she didn't really take an afternoon nap today.
