Delaney's Blessing

Today was Delaney's blessing. It was a really nice day. She slept SOOOOOOO great last night which I was a little worried about because she has a little cold and was asleep most of the day yesterday, but she only woke up at 3am and, as soon as she was done nursing, was back asleep not to wake until 7am. My dad was able to fly in from Utah for the blessing. It was nice to have him here. As always, we love visitors!

This past week Delaney has been a totally different baby! She has stopped crying ALL day long and has only had a couple episodes of extreme fussiness, but as soon as she poops...she's fine. Her little body is developing and I think the gas problem is subsiding for the most part...WHEW! She smiles and is alert a lot more during the day, and she is focusing in on things very well. She also is putting her weight on her legs and standing when you hold her in your lap...little stinker.
Luke is so sweet with her. Whenever she is crying, he comes to her and gently strokes her head and kisses it and says, "I sorry baby". He is such an awesome big brother and such a big boy now! I haven't measured him lately, but every time I look at him I can't believe how tall he is!

Anyway, life is good...scratch that...life is GREAT! Here are a few pictures for your viewing pleasure!

It makes me think about the occasions in the future my baby girl will be dressed in a beautiful white dress...sniffle sniffle.

What a good looking bunch...if I do say so myself! :)
