"WE'RE BACK"

I guess I don't need to tell you what we've been up to this past week huh? I knew this day would come but I guess I"ve just been in denial! ha ha ha And all of that turned

into this........
Delaney "took to" eating like a champ. This girl was born to eat! Let's not forget she was born a week early weighing in at a healthy 9 lbs. So, she takes her eating very seriously.


She really was a very "clean" eater. (She also tried to feed herself grabbing the spoon every chance she got!) I mean how dirty can you get when you're bib is as big as you are?I asked her if she wanted to start with carrots or sweet potatoes...she decided on carrots. I gave her her first bite and told her we didn't have to do this if "she" wasn't ready....but, as you can imagine "she" was! I thought we were being so careful and staying clean but once the bib came off, it was clear, that's an impossible task!

So, I think we'll be seeing a lot more of this in our future....(or, I'll just give her nothing but bananas since they don't look like they'll stain)!

Like with her food, I asked Delaney which bib she wanted to wear and she picked the polk a dots! She likes to make her own fashion decisions!

I think in this picture, Delaney is saying "mom, put down the cameras (yes, both still and video) and OPEN THAT JAR!!!!!!!!!

We decided to make some pumpkin chocolate chip muffins today and they were delicious!

Delaney seems excited for winter!!! I think she's saying "grandma Terry, how did you know I'd love it in pink". Since we don't plan on leaving our house this winter, I think I'll just consider this Delaney's "Snuggie"!


And, as much as I'd like Delaney to stay like this..............

She is starting to do this! (Disregard my flip flops in the background, I'm still not ready to give them up yet).

"Ladylike"..................not exactly a word I would use to describe Delaney!


Delaney passed the time away (without our laptop that is) playing with her toes......


and twirling her hair!!!!!!!!!!

Just wondering......do you think it's normal for a 6 month old little girl to have THREE


pair of............

Halloween pajamas?????


So, that's been our week in a nutshell. Delaney had her 6 month doctor appointment. She now weighs 18 lbs (she has doubled her birth weight) and is 27 inches long (she's grown 7 inches). She got a shot and didn't make a peep! It was like she was asleep! I was so proud of her. We've had visitors, spent time outside, and ran errands (which Delaney has figured out by now=shopping)!!! Oh, and if you're wondering about the computer, it wasn't a virus (this time) it was the power button that is "stuck"...but don't worry, nothing that a little glue didn't fix!!!!

"Technical Difficulties.....AGAIN"

Once again, we are without our computer! But don't worry, if it can't be repaired, we'll be the proud owners of a new one before you can say gigabyte!!!! Until then, you've got our number!

"Wordless Wednesday"

I thought we would "spice things up" and start doing Word-less Wednesdays! Certainly, it's NOT because I don't have anything to say, just to try something different~ So, I'll TRY and just post pictures on Wednesdays (unless there's some late breaking news we need to report)!! Let us know what you think!

Uggs!!!

Delaney felt right at home today IN THE SHOE DEPARTMENT AT VON MAUR...I keep saying her first word is going to be shoes (despite the fact she rarely wears them!)..........the question is not do we get Delaney her first pair of Uggs but what color do we get????????????????? I know this girl owns more pink than any one person should own but I am thinking the chestnut color looks awfully cute!! (I know they look huge on her but they really did fit)... (Bad picture taken on my phone)

Colts Game!!

Here is Delaney watching the Colts game with aunt Beth................. And here is Delaney watching the Colts game with aunt Beth........(she would NOT look away from the tv)!!!
And here is Delaney after the game (she was not happy her boys in blue AND PINK lost)
And here are the things Delaney came home with from aunt Beth's........

new hair clips aunt Beth made for her
a new Christmas dress from uncle Jim and aunt Essie (I can't wait for her to wear it)

and a pumpkin from aunt Beth

and guess what mommy got...........

leftover chili!!!!
When you have a baby, you sort of become, well, leftovers! ha ha ha
Let's face it, no one really cares about anyone but the baby!!!! (which is just fine by me)!

"It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like............"

HALLOWEEN!!!By no means am I creative or crafty! NOT EVEN CLOSE!! However, I wanted to make Delaney a candy bucket for Halloween. And yes, I realize she won't be getting any candy (I don't think she needs it, she's sweet enough) I thought this would be something she could keep and use for years to come (or, until she realizes how small it is and that it won't hold much candy!)
And, since it's officially October (my favorite month) it's time to break out the festive pj's!

I think Delaney is saying "mom, you're wearing me out, can you PLEASE put that camera up"
