Aubrey's Sassy Jumper

Here's a few pictures we took last week of Aubrey. I can't believe how much she is growing. She is really starting to smile more and more. Trying to catch her with a smile is hard, but these two are pretty good.

Sadie and Aubrey love to spend time together. They usually hang out on mom and dad's bed while I'm getting ready in the morning.

We tried out Aubrey's Sassy Jumper the other day. She is still a little small for it (we had to put some blankets around her), but she was ok in it for a few minutes.

Here is a short video of Aubrey in her jumper. She is better at twisting than jumping, but she'll get it eventually.

What have we gotten ourselves into...

Becky came to visit this weekend. We had a blast. We went shopping and found this adorable dress that Becky bought Aubrey to wear for Ben's graduation. It's a little big, but I think in 6 weeks it will be perfect!

Aubrey was sitting on the table and couldn't stop staring at her feet. She finally looked up a little when she heard daddy's voice.

Here is the fishy dress Scott bought her. It is so cute! She wore it all day today (so far).

Here is our new news. We have a new family member!! We just adopted a sweet 8 month old boxer named Maggie. Her and Sadie have so much fun together. Sometimes I wonder what we're getting ourselves into, but you only live once!

They finally calmed down enough to sit and get their picture taken...kind of...

Ben's T-38 Cross Country

Ben just got back last night from his four day cross country. He went to Dallas/Fort Worth and had a blast. Most of the flights he did were night flights. This first picture is of him with his jet.

Here is Ben with his IP, Col. Benyshek.

Ben doesn't seem to be taking the "stern talking to" seriously.

I don't know if this is taking off or landing, but my guess is this is the final flare before he lands. In this picture Ben is in the back seat under the "hood" since he is doing an instrument flight. His IP is in the front.

Like I said, Ben was mostly doing night flights so this is right before he taxied off for one of them.
