Aubree at 17 months old

Aubree is our handful child! She is everywhere all the time, and its not just the stage where she is at. She is climbing on everything, jumping off everything and sometimes landing on the hard ground. She talks a lot and is very motherly. She still has her binky but we are planning to get rid of it after Christmas. She absolutely LOVES juice! She now has 8 teeth.. the top four and a top molar, and three on the bottom. She learned how to put shoes on this month and will always have at least one shoe on in the house. She hates socks and will tear them off if there are no shoes to stop her. She is an awesome night time sleeper and doesn't even wake when big brother turns on the lights and plays trains at 11pm. She loves baby dolls and loves to play with them, give them binkys, juice, sunglasses, and blankets. She also loves to play cars with her big brother.  She is not a cuddler, I very rarely get any cuddles. You can never tell if she is sick which is a change from big brother. She loves candy, bananas, cheese, yogurt, cereal, juice, muffins, and any cookies. She is such a doll and she loves to say hi to people. She also insists on saying "Dank Do" (thank you) whenever you give her anything, and she wont stop saying it until you say you are welcome. She also says "Bless" when you sneeze. She loves to dance and attempt to jump. She looks up to her big brother and they can play so cute together sometimes. All in all, my kiddos are wonderful and we love them to pieces! Here are a few pictures of the month.. most have already been pictured from Halloween events.

Carnival

Steven's dad works at an elementary school and they have a carnival every year. His dad is so cute and loves all his grandkids to go to this event. He buys them the unlimited pass, and any food they want. The kids love it, the parents enjoy it, and Grandpa grins ear to ear. All in all its a good day. From what I hear, last year was pretty fantastic (I was working) and they had a ton of bounce houses covering the whole lawn. This year there were 3 bounce houses.. so not as exciting. No surprise that Korbin still thought it was the coolest thing in the world. He was in heaven and wouldn't stop going through the obstacles and bounce houses. Aubree got some tickets from Grandpa in case she wanted to do anything and we ended up buying 4 bags of cotton candy with the tickets..and boy was that yummy! We got dinner (Chicfila), which is always good. Aubree spent most of her time on the playground learning how to go up stairs and down slides. She successfully started going down slides on her own and it was pretty much hilarious. She is such a cute girl! After she figured out that fun we couldn't get her off them. Grandpa wasn't there this year (He was in Disneyland with Steven's sister's family), but it was still fun. We spent the evening with Steven's other sister Leslee, her hubby, and her two kiddos.




Halloween fun

This Halloween seemed like a busy one! We ended up going to three trunk or treats, one trick or treat at Daddy's work, two pumpkin patches, and one Halloween party. Oddly enough, we didn't make it to a single house to trick or treat because my kiddos were too tired from trunk or treating. Overall it was a great Halloween filled with awesome memories. Here are some pictures of the holiday fun.

Black Island Farm

I'll just start off by saying how great Black Island Farm is. Not only is it a decent price, but the kids just love it! We started off with a hay ride to the pumpkins, the kids got to pick out their own pumpkin from the patch, and name him. Took a ride back to where we started and then they have this whole field area full of animals, pig races, slides, bounce house, train, places you can play "music".. it just doesn't end. Korbin loved this last year, but man was it even better this year now that he is a little older. Thanks Leslee for always inviting us to come with, it is always a great time! I also wanted to post a picture or two of last year.

Bree not happy she is on my lap.
And..this is when you know it has been a good day. Korb very rarely sleeps in the car.

 

Aubree at 16 months old

I am sure I say this everytime.. but Aubree is such a character! She is such a girl! Even though she does enjoy the rough and tough, and the dinosaurs and cars, she is definitely a girly girl. She is dramatic, and yet very caring. She thinks everything and everyone is a baby including witches hanging from doors and 8 yr old kids. She loves her baby dolls and loves to do what Korbin does. She is a crazy, wild child that is always getting into something she isn't supposed to be getting into. She is a smart kid who can pretty much say anything I tell her to. She knows her body parts and loves poking people in the eyes. haha She now has 6 teeth. Two of them just popped through maybe last week. So she now has the top two, bottom two, the top left and the top left one yr molar. The teeth are kind of popping out randomly, but Im just glad she is finally getting teeth. She is a go-go-go kid who doesn't like to sit anywhere for very long, doesn't like strollers, or high chairs. She is a good kid with eating and sleeping. When its time for nap or bed she is always happy to lay down. She has the cutest wave that consists of her whole arm and loves to say "hi" to everyone that walks by..unless they start talking to her, then she gets stranger danger. She has a love/hate relationship with shoes, and absolutely HATES socks. If shoes aren't on, the socks WILL come off. What a silly girl.
 We love this girl to pieces! I am glad we have the chance to have a boy and a girl to experience both. It's funny the difference in personalities and likes/dislikes.
