Our Hoot Owl

Yesterday and last night Aubrey wasn't quite sure what she wanted: fuss, eat, fuss, fill a diaper, fuss, sleep, fuss some more. Daddy sent Mommy to the gym to relax and managed the chaos for awhile.

We often joke that Aubrey looks like a space alien at night, when all you can see in the dark is her grayish, perfectly round little peanut head with two black eyes staring at you. It sometimes makes you want to look out the window to see if the mother ship is parked outside. Now that her personality is really starting to develop, she thought she'd have some fun with Daddy as he was putting her to bed. Her eyes were closed, but as he was laying her down in her bassinet the little black eyes popped open. She grinned and said a quick little "hoo!" It was hard not to say "hoo!" back.
