Aubrey definitely gives us a run for our money and fits the '2nd child' mold to a tee! She is super spunky, independent (as much as she can be), sweet, cuddly, smiley, and lovable. She loves her sister and often says Natalie is her best friend. She is also quite opinionated!
She has grown a ton in the last year! Her words and sentences exploded this year! She loves to swim (but the water has to be just right) and swing! She loves to sing the ABCs and Old McDonald.
When asking her this year what type of party she wanted, she was too wishy washy and really doesn't prefer anything on TV, so once again, we did a non-character themed party...I decided on a BUBBLE theme. Also, whenever asked what presents she wanted for her birthday, so often replied with 'Nothing!' or would explain how she was going to teach her baby brother how to do a somersault, then proceed to show us what that looked like. She was a hard one this year because she honestly didn't NEED or WANT anything at all! She's also the type that if given a choice to buy something in a gift shop, she never wants to buy anything; where Natalie would buy everything if you let her.
We had perfect weather for her party...perfect in the shade, warm in the sun. The kids all seemed to have fun with the various bubbles, swing set, sprinkler, small pool and of course the bounce house!
She sure likes to ham it up for pictures now! :)
Bubble wrap for the bubble party!
Natalie picked out and wrapped (with help) a present just for Aubrey!
A perfect sized pool just for them!
On Sunday, we headed to church and family that was still in town came over and played before it was time to go home.
The kids even got to take short motorcycle rides...Aubrey LOVED it and giggled the whole ride. Natalie refused to even sit on it because she says motorcycles are TOO loud!
