Look who's growing up...

...I am!!! I am finally letting Aubrey sleep in a crib, though my arms do miss her while shes napping :) I just recently started working, and by recent I mean really recent (I only started 3 days ago). Anyway, I am now watching a 7mo. old, Monday through Friday in the mornings and taking Aubrey with me. I realized pretty early on that I can't rock her to sleep for naps while also trying to entertain another little one. That said, I finally gave in and now she's sleeping in her wooden cage :) for at least one nap a day (usually two though, or 1.5)! Thank Heaven for this thing though...
... Its the video monitor Grammy Krohn got us for the baby shower. I'd be strapped to her crib if I had to make this transition without it! Crazy or not, I'm a nervous Mama and I'm not afraid to admit it, and this little piece of machinery is my life line!
In other news, Aubrey just won't stop growing. I try to tell her that she can take her time, but she has places to go and demands she gets there promptly. I don't think she'll be happy until shes found a way to fly! Already shes rolling over, but only from her back to her tummy, and kicking her legs and spinning around. I put her in the crib the other day and took a shower only to find her flipped the opposite direction and on her stomach. I thought her swaddle was on her head but lifted it up and found her feet!
It's more than just her moving, though. She's so alert now, so aware of everything going on around her. She is even starting to giggle, which is probably the cutest thing I have ever seen! She'd better lighten up on the cuteness or I'm sure her Daddy and I will be broke one day from giving her WHATEVER she wants with just one little giggle! Well, she's awake now, so Mama to the rescue, "Did you wake-sie girl-sie, girl-sie?!

Yes that is hair in her eye, no I'm not going to cut it :) We clip it back when shes awake!
