4th of July celebrations

This year for the 4th of July I was able to be off work so on the 3rd we attended the Riverton Parade with Amanda's family and our grandparents (Mom is still not doing well and is sick every day). Since Shannon is the 1st attendant for Miss Bluffdale, she was on the Bluffdale City Float in many parades this year.



Grandpa always has his duck call whistles at the parades to embarrass us all :)

 On the 4th we attended our ward breakfast in our circle and that afternoon we went to the Sandy parade. Dad drove the float Shannon was in this year so we couldn't be in the firetruck. We then went to Riverton to watch the fireworks that night.




10 months old

 This little munchkin is 10 months old now and as you can see by the pictures, is very active and does NOT like to sit still at all. Trying to take her "month pictures" is getting more and more challenging as now she likes to eat the sticker the second she sees it.

 "Hmmmm, how can I destroy this paper?"
 " I will just crawl away and do some push-ups instead"

 Another one of her favorite activities now that is can crawl is to chase the cats around the entire house. The second Aubrie gets within arm's reach of them, they take off.
 She still loves giving the "cheesy face" everytime the camera comes out.
At 10 months Aubrie:
 * Started to army crawl about a month ago and all of a sudden she is taking off on all fours
    and if she really wants something she speedly army crawls to it.
*Has a new found love for her pink blanket from the hospital and gets so excited to see it and cuddles it once she gets her hands on it
*Has finally cut her two bottom teeth while we were in the hospital and now is drooling like crazy
*Still loves watching Micky Mouse Clubhouse, Sofia the First, and now Jake and the Neverland Pirates
*Is starting to get separation anxiety :(
*Thinks it is fun to drop her cheerios or toys one by one onto the floor and cry until you give them back, just for her to do it again.
*Has tried chicken, bits of green beans and string cheese
*Still gets daily compliments wherever we go on how cute she is and how cute her hair is
*Is able to open drawers and is starting to pull herself up onto the couch
