We used to make fun of her skinny little "chicken legs" when she was a newborn. Now those chicken legs could feed an entire village in Malaysia. Here is a list of a few of my favorites that we've heard over the last few months (note: I am not making these up)
1. Why, what a...a healthy baby you have!
2. Boy, you must be feeding her well!
3. She sure is a solid girl. A solid girl...
4. She would make for a delicious Thanksgiving dinner! (okay, so maybe this one actually hasn't been said. Note the emphasis on "said")
The second thing that we hear a lot is how similar to Sheri she looks. I really like when people say that, because that means that in the womb Aubrey must have swum in the cleaner gene pool. But for some reason I've always had a hard time picking out family resemblances. However, recently I came across some old pictures of Sheri that totally remind me of Aubrey. Tell me what you think:
This is Sheri on her first plane flight (Sheri is on the left - the non-mullet one).
Take special note of the thighs - Sheri tells me that she used to hide several meals within them for emergencies.
And now, for the Aubrey shots:
She's a little nervous in this one. Maybe because Satan's bee is about to eat her.
Now look for the thighs...
Wait for it...
Maybe next year we'll stop feeding her the deep-fried Oreos...
Because I haven't posted for awhile, here are a few more pics of Aubrey that I just can't resist showing:
A girl's two favorite things: black stretchy pants and a flower large enough to have its own zip code
And now for an eerily similar father-son resemblance:
