Delaney Lou - 7 Months Old

Our sweet Delaney Lou turned seventh months old two Sunday's ago. I cannot believe how fast time is going by and I wish it would slow down.

May 17, 2015 - 7 Months Old

All About You Delaney Lou...

I'm not sure how much you weigh, but you are getting bigger and bigger each day.

You're still in size 3 diapers.

You can still wear some 3 month clothes and are also in some 6 or 6/9 month clothes. It really just depends on the outfit. Some fit and some are huge.

You love to sit up and definitely prefer it over laying down. You even want to sit up in the bath.

You roll and move all over the floor. You're not crawling, but you can move yourself forwards and backwards on your tummy.

You love standing.

Most of your naps take place on me or in the car seat, but I was able to get you to nap a few days in your crib.

Most nights consist of you waking up once, but you like to switch things up every once in a while and wake up more than that.

You had your first ER visit because you had croup.

You love to snuggle with me.

You have 2 teeth on the bottom and you know how to use them. You will bite any and everything! They are the cutest little things, but I have yet to be able to get a picture of them.

You love playing with your Sophie giraffe, teethers, soft books, taggie blanket (or anything with a tag on it) and your little blue elephant. 

You love bouncing in your jumparoo.

You do this cute little thing where you suck in your bottom lip.

You have the BEST cheeks and I kiss them all of the time!

Your eyelashes go on for miles.

You are not a fan of grass.

I think you're starting to recognize people that you know.

You went with me to work at KUMC MOPS for the first time and you didn't seem to mind that I was taking care of other babies too.

You're enjoying eating your baby food and I'm giving it to you more often now.

You look adorable in your highchair with the tray on.

You had your first bread stick from Olive Garden. PawPaw gave it to you (of course he asked first) and you LOVED it!

Here's a link to a video of Delaney bouncing in her jumparoo. Ignore me in the background...

Your 1st time bouncing and you loved it!

You love your sissy. And she loves you too!

You're so cute when you sleep. This is how you put your face every single time. I try to move your hands and turn your head to the side, but you always end up back like this.

All tuckered out watching your cousins Crews and Jay Chase play baseball.

May 17, 2015 - St. Teresa Beach Weekend

Delaney Lou you are growing and changing way too fast and this past month flew by! You are the sweetest baby and your smile is contagious. People always comment on how adorable you are. You love me, your daddy and your sisters so much, but I think we may love you more. The past seven months with you in our lives has been nothing short of wonderful.

Fun in the Sun

Last Friday we headed to St. Teresa to spend the weekend at the beach. I was a little worried because the weather report looked horrible all week, but it ended up being a beautiful weekend and it was even better because we spent it with great friends!

The Haywood's have become our dear friends over the past few years and we were so excited that they could join us along with one of Kaylyn's friends, Kathleen. We loaded up the car Friday morning, took the girls out of school a little early and off we went.

Our view for the weekend...

Ashton and Savannah are the best of friends and were so excited to be at the beach together.

Sweet Scarlett!

Delaney didn't like it when I tried to just dip her toes in the water, but ended up loving it when I got in with her.

Delaney's 1st time in the ocean.

Megan and I with our baby girls.

There's nothing better than waking up at the beach and eating chocolate donuts with friends!

Dads doing dishes...

All of our girls...and Kathleen too. She was ours for the weekend.

Walking to the pool.

They were so sweet talking to each other on the way...

Delaney's 1st time in a pool and of course YaYa had to hold her.

  

Kaylyn and Kathleen

Delaney loved the water!

After swimming for a little while, we left the pool and headed to the beach to enjoy the rest of the day.

These are two of the sweetest girls I know! They are well mannered, kind and always willing to help. Especially with the little girls.

Scarlett was too cool in her hat and shades!

Kaylyn and Kathleen had so much fun kayaking.

Coming back in from a trip.

I don't have a picture, but Trey and Brian kayaked to Alligator Point and back.

Bubbles.

This sweet thing had so much fun playing in the water and the sand.

Toes in the sand.

The adults and the little girls had come back to the house when we heard Kaylyn yelling for Trey. He was a little reluctant to go see what they wanted, but did anyway. What they found were tons of blue crabs and they ended up getting a bucket full of them.

We were doing a shrimp boil for dinner, so the crabs were the perfect addition.

A feast to end a wonderful day...

And this was all that was left...

The next day we had to go home, but wanted to get a group picture first. Trying to get 10 people to all look at the same exact time was a little challenging, especially when 4 of them are four and younger.

Bye bye St. Teresa. We all had a blast and cannot wait to go on another family trip together! This is definitely what friends are for and we are so thankful for the Haywood family and Kaylyn's sweet friend Kathleen!!!
