Delilah and Chloë Miller

 Reese Batchelder and Lexie Driscoll (Ree's favorite "babysitters")

 Thanks to all our friends who made it! We love you guys.

Our little ReeRee is 11 months old!

She walks and still likes to crawl, but on her hands and feet, not knees.

She talks so much and it comes out sounding like German.

She literally is into everything.

Loves to jiggle to toilet handle, tear and eat the toilet paper, get into the trash - I have had to put hair ties around all the cubbards.

She is climbing on and into things like the couch, inside the ottoman, and laundry basket.

She really is the happiest little lady! She loves being with her friends, LOVES! She giggles and gets so excited.

She nurses 5 times a day still, but trying to ween her to 2-3 times a day. She'll drink formula and sometimes whole milk.

Still an amazing eater! She says "num nums" when she is hungry.

Sometime she'll even pull down my shirt to nurse...eek.

She can swim with arm floaties.

She is loving her binkie for more than just going to bed.

She puts her head on my shoulder when she is tired.

She can still wear some 6-9 month clothes.

She can blow kisses and makes a smack noise with her lips...so cute!

She is obsessed with falling face first onto pillows.

 We went on a quick weekend getaway to Orlando with some great friends, the Miller's and the Ward's. We had a lot of fun! We hope to make this a monthly tradition? haha maybe that's too much, but I wish. Our trip consisted of the temple, H&M, and Del Taco. All of which aren't in Naples, so we enjoyed every moment of the trip.

 Aubree started swimming lessons. She is surprisingly catching on really fast! She kicks, floats, jumps to you from the ledge, and doesn't mind getting dunked. Fortunately, Daddy was able to come to this session :). Ree is obsessed with her Daddy and is his twin!

 Ree loves having swimming lessons with her buddy/boyfriend Holden.

 "Look Mom, bubbles!"

 

 Aubree turned 10 months on April 22, 2012. She seems like a big kid to me now. I've heard that is how you feel with your first...it hasn't hit me yet that she is almost ONE. I can't even believe it! Seriously, I think I'll cry when it hits me.

Stands on her own.

Can be entertained for awhile with dental floss, a wallet, measuring cups, and of course things she shouldn't be playing with.

Likes it when the dishwasher is open (always goes for the knives, why?)

Loves drinking out of her sippy cup.

Doesn't mind getting slammed by the beach waves, she loves it actually.

She has bonked her head a countless number of times, cries for a bit and wants me to hold her.

Got her first bloody lip by banging it on the ottoman.

She has 7 little chompers, she likes to bite sometimes OUCH!

She looks exactly like her Daddy.

She has super blonde fine hair, wondering if it'll be curly like mine?

When you start to sing "Patty Cake", she claps her hands.

Giggles so much when other kids are smiling at her.

When you tell her no don't touch that, she shakes her head, then smiles and touches it.

We headed down to Everglade City for an airboat ride. We had never been on one before, so it was fun to go with my parents. Even Ree liked it!
