Happy Halloween

Aubrey had a great first Halloween. She was a ladybug and we dressed Deuce up as a bee (he wasn't too thrilled) we had the cutest bugs around. We went to our church for a fun evening of trunk-r-treat.

Aubrey and Deuce playing. It was so hard to get a good picture so this is the best we could do. Hope you all had a good Halloween.

Niles Canyon Railroad

Another fun family day in the Bay Area. We went on a steam train ride thru Niles canyon and Aubrey loved watching the trees go by and the wind in her hair.

California Academy of Science

Our family from St. Louis Missouri is visiting for a couple weeks so Spencer, Aubrey and I went to the Bay Area this last weekend to join in the tourist fun and to be with our family. We went to the new California Academy of Science in San Francisco. It is an amazing place to go and visit. They have a Natural History museum, planetarium, aquarium and a 4-story rainforest. We did it all and Aubrey loved every minute. Here are a few pictures of all that we saw. Uncle Larry (my grandma's brother) and Spencer in front of the Academy
Aubrey was fascinated with the penguin exhibit in the Natural History Museum and the fish in the aquarium.

Aubrey's loves her new penguin from Nana.


Inside the 4-story rainforest

There where tons of beautiful butterflies in the rainforest and one landed on Uncle Larry's hat. Everyone is looking at the butterfly. Aubrey was so happy all day we couldn't ask for a better baby.

Our little girl is growing up

On Friday October 17th I went into Aubrey's room after her morning nap to find her like this:

I guess it's time to lower the mattress. Later that day she was trying to pull herself up on everything.

Today Monday October 20th Aubrey crawled!!!! We are so excited. She could do the army crawl like a pro and she would get up on all fours and then just rock. Then today she just went from sit position to all fours to crawling like she has been doing it forever. I got a cute video on my cell phone so if I ever figure out how transfer my videos from my phone to the computer I will post it.

Our Little Pumpkin

Over the weekend we went to Dell'Osso Family Farm Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch in Lathrop, Ca. We met up with my mom, dad, and sister. We had such a great time and Aubrey really enjoyed herself. We did a corn maze, scarecrow train ride, and played in the pumpkin patch. Here are some fun pictures from the event.

We ended our fun fall day visiting Spencer's side of the family in Manteca. Aubrey loves playing with her cousins. I thought this was the cutest picture of cousin Noah he will be one Nov. 1st and he is doing so good with his walking and getting up on his own. Spencer caught him in action.
