Introducing RPT's new PT...

Thats right, I got a position with RPT in South Jordan in an outpatient sports medicine clinic. This was unexpected as I originally applied for the position back in October and found out I didn't get the job. I was dissapointed and finally accepted the fact I would just stay at St. Josephs. Then out of the blue, I got an email from RPT wanting to hire me....of course I couldn't resist the offer. I know it will require a lot more hours and less time with Aubrie, but I will be able to specialize in Womens Health and Hand therapy which I have always wanted to do. I start in a few weeks but am really nervous since its been awhile in OP setting.

Midway Ice Castle

 This little fish loves the water and will yell, "Ya Ya Ya" when we tell her it is tubby time.

 We decided to take an adventure to the Midway Ice Castle to see it for ourselves. It was really neat and had lots of different 'rooms', a maze, and a slide inside the castle.

Some other funny things Aubrie has been up to lately:
- She can tell you what sounds these animals make: cat, dog, cow, horse, duck, owl, snake, and tiger.
-She jabbers and talks in jibberish all day
-Some of her favorite foods are: mac and cheese, any pasta or pizza, pears, peaches, blueberries, grapes, and chicken and stars.
-We have been trying to work on more sign language lately and she can sign "more" "please" and "thank you" along with waving bye and blowing kisses.
-Loves feeding her cats and dolls her bottle
-Starting sticking her tongue out and in really fast (like a snake) when she wants to eat something.

Funny things about Aubrie

I wanted to write this down before I forget....As I was picking Aubrie up from daycare today, her teacher Jo who has known her since she was 10 weeks old, said to me that the one word that describes Aubs is Passionate. She is passionate about every one of her emotions. When she is happy, she is super happy and giggly, when she cries it is as if the world is ending and she shakes and cries very loud, when she is mad, she is really mad and when she is lovey, she is very cuddly and lovey.

I love my little Passionate girl!

First Haircut

 Aubrie had her first haircut on December 30, 2013 at just a few days shy of 16 months old.
Her hair was growing so quickly(I was cutting her bangs every other week!) and when it was straight, it was down to her shoulders! Even though I liked it long, it was getting a little scraggily and it was a lot longer in the front and straight while the back was super curly. She went to Amber's salon to get it cut and sat on my lap and did great the entire time. She even let Amber blow dry her hair straight!

 Of course her favorite little kitties are in every picture....she adores them. Aubrie learned 2 new words this week: ba ba and bye. She also loves to run up and down the hall and growl at me (her sign to me to come chase her).

We are so glad to be feeling better around our house....we spent the past 4 days with the flu bug that got passed from one person to the next.
