How quickly they grow up!

It is amazing how quickly Delaney is growing up and it is hard for us to believe she is already 6 months old. She is so much fun to play with and she makes us laugh constantly.

Our little drool machine. Her hair is getting out of control.

She loves sitting up on her changing table. She finds the baby wipe container quite fascinating.

Five months old

It has been a while since we posted some new pictures of Delaney. She is getting so big and she has started to do new things all the time. She is teething now and we are just waiting for those teeth to finally poke through. She has gotten quite good at blowing spit bubbles as you can see by the picture below, but it also looks like she is just giving us the look "Blue Steel" from Zoolander.

We have had a few hot days here this summer and Delaney took advantage of it by trying out her new swimming pool. She seemed to enjoy it, but she also seemed confused as to why she was getting a bath outside.

Delaney and Dan. They haven't quite figured out how to get themselves out of this predicament yet, but Delaney has a blast up there.

Delaney loves, absolutely LOVES, the cats. They are not quite as fond of her. She liked to giggle, which turned to laughing, which to turned to squealing, which turned to all out screaming when she sees them. This has actually worked out ok with Max because he is deaf and can't hear her.

Feet have finally made their way into the mouth.

Delaney and I had a horrible cold/flu thing this past week. She was out of daycare from Friday until Thursday and I missed three days of work. She was running a pretty good fever, but she still liked to get up and play. Here we have her in her Exersaucer having a good time, even with a stuffy nose and fever.

MMMmmm...

squash.

We got her highchair all put together and she loves it. She loves being able to bang on the tray. Plus, I think she just loves sitting up high.

As promised... portraits

Well, I had promised the portraits a while ago, but our computer wasn't quite working there for a while. So, here are some of the portraits that we had taken. Delaney didn't give them too much to work with considering she melted down about 4 minutes into the photo shoot, but they did a great job of getting pictures here and there with her. Overall, we were pretty happy with the way they turned out.
