15 months!

New This Week: Aurelia has expanded her animal sounds from duck, chicken, and cow to monkey and puppies! She is just too funny with the monkey sounds! Also, Ari turned 15 months old!
Baby #2 is now the size of a prune, with bones and cartilage starting to form, along with tiny little nails on the fingers and toes!

On Monday, Mommy had to work, so Aurelia spent the day with Grandma Bena. Looks like she was really complaining as she had her "num, num" aka shake at DQ!!!
We made our way to the park on Tuesday and enjoyed some more sand time!



It was Tio Ramon and Auntie D's anniversary on Wednesday...it inspired us to show some Texas pride with her outfit!

On Thursday, we had a typical day at home...

Aurelia Vail turned 15 months old today! We celebrated part of the day at the zoo with our friends, Trisha and Espen. They played so hard, it showed on the way home!

April...

New This Week: Aurelia had her very first overnight without her Mommy and Daddy! I definately think that it was waaaaay tougher on Mommy than Ari Vail! She just had way too much fun!
Baby #2 is the size of an grape, and is looking more like a little baby at this point! The little heart has formed the 4 chambers and the little embryonic "tail" is now gone!

Monday, was a typical Monday with some play time in her room...
On Wednesday, we said our final goodbye's to G-Grandpa Doc, at his funeral. Aurelia was sad and very tired after her long day.
We left for Harmony on Thursday to get ready for Tia Bria's Bridal Shower! Needless to say, it was a quiet ride down!
On Friday, Uncle JonJon and Ari had fun "playing" on the new "toy". I think she liked it!

Also on Friday, Auntie D came into town!! We were so excited to see her!!
Saturday morning we had a great time at Tia Bria's Bridal Shower!









On Saturday afternoon, we celebrated GG's 75th birthday! It was so much fun!







It was so much fun to watch Aurelia and Dreigh playing together!!












It was a great, fun day all around!!!
On Sunday, Mommy and Daddy headed back to the Cities...without Aurelia! She got to stay the evening/night at Grandma Bena's! I definately think it was harder on Mommy than on Ari! She seemed to have a blast! I think the other one that had a good ride home was little Frida!!

Big Announcement!

New This Week: In case some of you missed it in the last posting, we are having another BABY!!! We are due November 16th and couldn't be happier about the news! We don't think Aurelia really knows what's going on, other than there's a baby in Mommy's tummy...oh and her tummy, and everyone else's tummy!!!! haha!

We started out the week with some Yaya time, as Mommy picked up a day shift on Monday.
On Tuesday, we spent some more time at the park and playing in the sand.
Unfortunately, Wednesday was a rainy day, so we stayed indoors and played in our pouting chair.
Ari woke up ready to go on Thursday... The little ladies (yes, Frida too!) ran errands with me today...I think they had fun in the car!
We had our 8 week appointment and were so happy to hear the little heartbeat and see our little bean! Daddy took part of the day off on Friday after our appointment and we spent some fun family time at the MOA, riding the carousel.

Later in the afternoon we got word that G-Grandpa Doc was not doing well and that they were call all of the family in. Aurelia had had a long day, but Daddy did his best to keep her entertained!
Plus she had Brennan to help keep her busy!
It was a very sad weekend for the Wand family as we said our goodbye's to Doc. But the nice thing was that we were all there to be able to do so.
