Aubrey's Outie






Today, we said goodbye to Aubrey's "Outie." She's had it since birth, and we were told she would most likely not need surgery and that it would correct itself. But here we are 2 1/2 years later and it's just as big. So we decided to have the surgery and get it corrected.

This little belly button is quite famous within the family. Lots of cousins like to touch it, poke it or just stare at it. Aubrey likes to squish it to make noises, and loves to hold it. I thought it might be a little sad for her to loose this little nub...but it was time for it to go!



Aubrey has SO much personality. She is the most animated of our three. She is silly, is a copy cat, and loves to make us laugh. But when she is in new situations or around strangers, she freezes up and doesn't say anything. She becomes this total serious little girl. These pictures above demonstrate that a little. Each nurse that would come check on her or talk to her must assume she doesn't talk...if they only knew! She is a crazy one!

Here is the flat belly! She did so well and we're so happy it all went great!
