All About Aubree

Oh this girl... she is so much fun and such a spitfire.  I feel like I have a teenager, not a 2 year old!  Here are some things about Aubree lately:

-We tried potty training and that was a total bust.  She was so patient the entire day with me nagging her and and putting her on the potty-- but she was not getting it.  She would sit on her potty for 2 hours while we played, stand up, and go right on the floor!  ALL DAY.  Not fun.  The next day I asked her if she wanted to go on her potty and she just started bawling.  I felt so bad.. so basically we will try again when we are both ready haha.
-She is so social!  She goes up to people in the store and hugs them and loves when we see people we know.  She especially loves Matt's friends.  Van and Danny are still talked about at our house.
-She was having a really hard time understanding that we don't hit or push kids, but she has seemed to be a lot better.  It still happens, but not every 5 seconds.  I read a great book about this issue and it helped a lot... I just need to stick with what they tell parents to do in that situation!  When we were in St. George she was pretty hard on her cousins (and I appreciate my sister in laws for being so nice about it!) so we will keep trying to teach her.
-We bought her a new swimming suit and she loves it.  She asks every day if we can go swimming- luckily 7 Peaks opened this weekend so we will be there all the time this summer.  We are so excited!
-She is a great talker.  I love having conversations with her. 
-I sometimes wonder about her blood sugar... I have a 2 minute window when she is hungry and if I don't feed her within that time, it's all over.  I could just be paranoid but it really is that bad.  Once we get food in her she is great, so who knows.  We'll have to talk to her Dr. and see. 
-She loves wearing my shoes and Matt's shoes.
-We talk about her being a big sister all the time and play with her babies to practice.  I knew before I got pregnant she will have a hard time adjusting, but we will try our best.  I think she will enjoy having her around but not enjoy me giving a lot of attention to someone else besides her. 
-She loves the Temple.  She wants to drive by it all the time.
