Here are the pictures from Thanksgiving! There's not much, it's mostly the house but I had a really good time being at home. I didn't want to leave because the house is so pretty and it was fun seeing my family but the only thing that is getting my through these next 2 1/2 weeks is that I get to go back home for a couple of months!

Avery & Regan

Avery is getting so big!!! These are when she was only a week old so in the last 3 weeks she's grown so much. We had her weighed last Friday & she was just shy of 10 pds! She had gained 1 1/2 pounds in a week! She's such a stinker because I was thinking she wasn't getting much cause she's alwasy falling asleep when she eats which I thought was why she was wanting to eat every 1 1/2 to 2 hours. But noooo, she gets to "have her cake & eat it too!" Not fair!
Crazy to think that we've now entered the "double stroller" stage of life. Thankfully we haven't yet reached the "minivan" stage but if I'm promised a new van like Kristi's than I'm all for it!

Farmor & Farfar are visiting right now & enjoying their granddaughters. We'll take some pics & post them soon. Love you all & miss you!!! Paige, please take pics of your house & post. Thanks! Laura

Avery home from the hospital

Here is a video from when we brought Avery home from the hospital on Oct. 24, 2007. For some reason I couldn't get it to post through the blog so I set it up on photobucket. Regan was more impressed with Jasper than with Avery. Enjoy! Laura

Halloween

I am sorry these pictures are late in posting. I hope you enjoy them. I will be better at getting the Thanksgiving pictures up. Abby has a swim meet this weekend and otherwise we are doing home projects. We are looking forward to seeing Paige this weekend too.

Halloween

Kristi thought I was nuts & gave me a lot of flack but I canceled Halloween this year & have no regrets!!! I just knew it was going to be to much for me to give out candy, Jasper barking everytime the doorbell was rung while Regan wanting to answer the door while also trying to feed Avery. I knew Steve wouldn't be home until 7:00 pm so I just wasn't going to even atempt to do it by myself! In fact I didn't even buy any candy so I just left my porch light off & enjoyed a nice quiet evening home. Part of me felt a little guilty as I looked out the window at one point & saw all the cute trick or treaters & thought it would of been fun taking Regan out but she really has no idea what it was all about & if I hadn't of just had a new baby (come on Kristi, I literally had just had a baby) than I would of atleast taken Regan to the mall of something like that. Our ward didn't even do a trunk or treat either so instead she just played dress ups with costume my mom bought from the gap clearance center & we got cute pics of that. Isn't that what's important are the cute pics? Speaking of pictures, I'm dying to see Halloween pics from all the girls so Kristi & Laci get to it!

Halloween Party at Aunt Lisa's

I was so gald that I was able to go to my aunt Lisa's famous Halloween party. Even though this year she didnt really go all out as usually, there were still some crazy surprises. This year Lisa wanted to do a Pirates of the Caribbean theme. She was dressed as Jack Sparrow...she was so good that I didn't even recognize her!! But I had a lot of fun with the family and I enjoyed the food!

Coming Home with Avey

We came home from the hospital on Oct. 24, 2007 & were very excited for Regan to get to know her better. Regan was nervous being in the hospital & pretty stand-offish so we were hopeful that she'd be more excited at home. Well the 1st couple of days she was pretty much oblivious of Avery but now after a couple of weeks she asks several times a day to "hold Avery." She's also a big help in getting diapers & handing me things while I'm confined to a chair when feeding Avery. She even calls Avery her "baby sister".

Welcome Avery Ann Aase!

So I'm a couple weeks behind on getting these photos up but better late than never! I took Avery yesterday to get weighed & she's already gained an entire pound since she was born almost 3 weeks ago. I can believe it because most days she is wanting to eat every 1 1/2 to 2 hours. The dr. said she is pretty much eating double of what is normal for an infant her age & weight! She is a feeding fanatic so if you try & call & I don't answer it's because I haven't quite learned how to nurse, keep Jasper off my lap & Regan jumping from my lap to the other recliner plus hold the phone (or atleast have it on speaker)at the same time. Give me some time but I do welcome lots of phone calls & I promise I'll return your call as soon as I can. I would gladly welcome some adult (& nieces) conversation! Paige, thanks for setting up this blogg because It really is going to be my outlet to escaping the kids for a few moments everyday for some alone time. I've put up some pictures on the Giles Blog & I've really enjoyed it. So everyone please keep your posts & pics coming! I'd love to hear all about everyone!
