What a weekend! I honestly hate being guilty of wishing time would fly, but this saturday and sunday, I was all to glad to see the hours scream by! Bailey had her sleep over saturday night, and we ended up with 6 girls! Normally that wouldn't seem like many, but add a 3 month old that LOVES her sleep to the mix, and a girl that thinks she has mono to the mix, and mommy needed a stiff drink, a valium AND a nerve pill! I will say they were pretty good though, I just couldn't wait to get the last one out the door and grab the Lysol can. I think I literally hosed down everything in the house twice. They did manage to get lots of use out of the pool for one last weekend so that was good. It's rare to have a late september day and be able to swim outside, they really enjoyed it, and now Father time can go back to being lazy! It's almost Christmas! I LOVE this time of year, but watching Aubree grow so fast makes me want it to take awhile getting here. Scott and I have such fun holiday shopping traditions though, and last year we didn't get to do any since I was nurturing a young one. This year, we can grad a setter for a few hours and enjoy it though! The only time Aubree has been with a sitter has been the 3 days I worked and didn't take her with me, I'm thinking it's time to get one for a date night soon!!!! Scott's band plays Oct 13 in Johnson City, then Oct 26 in Chattanooga, and I'm still debating on going to these shows. Part of me wants to, to get to see everyone and hang out, but part of me really just wants to stay home with my little girl. I may miss something!!! For the Chattanooga show, I'd kinda like to have a little time to do some exploring, I've heard great things about the area. Bailey is wanting to go too. What to do? I kinda want to find a hotel with an indoor pool, and let Scott go do his show, and take saturday to site see, then come home sunday. I also kinda want to be able to go to his show. I've been working really hard on pumping to have enough milk for a sitter so that shouldn't be an issue, it's just making up my mind........
Got a WONDERFUL new toy this weekend. I've been dying for a new camera since Aubree came along, thinking it's the camera and not the photographer. So, Scott finally got tired of listening to me and we did some research, and after reading on Dooce's sight that she uses a Nikon D80 and really recommends it, for our "starter" camera, we opted for the Nikon D40. We haven't really gotten to play with it alot. I did the new shots I put up of Aubree, those were just some simple ones, we really want to try to get fancy at some point and get some really good ones. We're supposed to be going to an Olive and Olive Oil tasting this saturday at a Vineyard and I'm going to try to get some good ones then.
Aubree is still growing like a weed!! Has so much head control now. I love when she's being carried around, that little head moving around and those eyes taking everything in. When she's in her carrier/car seat, she will pull her head forward and it looks so akward, but she seems to love it. It really drives Bailey crazy and she will try to "help" her pull it back. She wakes up smiling, and even when she hasn't pooped in 2 days, she's full of grins and smiles!!!! I love her fully, totally, completely, with all of my heart, and can't remember my life ever being this great!!!
