Auden is 6 months!

Where has the time gone?  I can't believe my sweet girl is 6 months old already!  Here's a little bit about her...

- She rolls over regularly now
- She can almost sit up on her own
- She is in 9-12 months clothes most of the time and 12 month sleepers
- She smiles ALL the time!!
- She loves baby food and has had peas, carrots, squash, sweet potatoes, mango, prunes, pears and broccoli
- She wears size 3 diapers and has for about 2 months
- She grabs toys with both hands and stuffs them in her mouth.  :)
- She KNOWS me and Sam and does a happy dance when she sees either one of us walk in the room or hears us talk.
- She's going anywhere from 9-11 hours at night without waking up (Thank the Lord!)
- She weighed 15 lbs. even at 23 weeks
- She is such a light in our lives and we are so blessed to have her!  In LOVE with her!
- She is in love with Wynnie and belly laughs at everything she does (I LOVE this!!)
- She wakes up cooing and talking and very rarely cries.

Merry Christmas and Happy 6 Months to Auden!!

What a joyous Christmas we had!!  We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family and have our two precious girls. We spent the day with family (not all of them unfortunately) and it was wonderful.  The kids had a fantastic day and Wynnie was all about ripping open presents.  Here she is on Christmas morning.   They both had such a busy day and even Auden barely napped.  Here's a few pics from the day :)  Auden turned 6 months yesterday and I honestly can't believe she's already half a year old.  I will post an update tomorrow with her milestones/developments but I didn't want it to get lost in the shuffle and excitement of Christmas.

 I love seeing my two girls' stockings :)

 This is the best picture I could get of all four cousins.  No kidding.  Wynnie is trying to shut Auden's mouth!
 Happy girl on Christmas!

Santa Claus is Coming to Town!

The girls visited Santa Claus yesterday after Wynn's Christmas pageant (more on that later) and had so much fun!  They also saw Santa at Wynn's Preschool Christmas Party and then a random Santa strolled into the restaurant when we were eating lunch.  Wynnie never noticed that Santa got around so quicly....  No tears in the Mc household where he's involved. Wynnie told him that she wanted a race track with a daddy race car, mommy race car and baby race car. :)


My Sweet Little Girls!

Auden Eating Cereal

LOTS of Firsts This Past Weekend!

SO many firsts this weekend!  Wynn got her FIRST haircut ever!!  Yes, I know it sounds extreme but her hair has always been so pretty and curly and I couldn't bring myself to cut it.  Well, I finally got sick of the tangles and having her run away from me screeching when I have a brush in my hand.  She told my mom the other day that her hair was a "rats nest" which you can only imagine came out of my mouth at some point while brushing her hair.  Her hair is EXACTLY like mine was as a kid but not as blond.  At least she got something from her mama. :)   I took her to Cookie Cutters and she LOVED it!!  She got to sit in her very own airplane and got to watch Dora while she got her hair styled.  Then she got her very own First Haircut Certificate with a lock of her hair and a picture of her new hairdo.  Oh and a balloon. :)







The second FIRST was that Auden ate cereal for the first time this weekend!  She didn't love it but didn't dry heave it then vomit like Wynn did. Here she is! I guess that's progress...



Last FIRST but not least by any means is Auden has started sitting up all by herself!!!!!!!  She was about 5 months and two weeks in this pic.  She still tips over sometimes but she's getting to be such a big girl!!

Wynn signing Silent Night

I had NO idea that she had ever even heard this song so imagine my surprise when I started singing it to her tonight before bed and she started signing it and telling me how to do it! She amazes me. :) I'm so proud to be her mama!
