This might be quite the garbled mess of the last few weeks, but AI promise to post more regularly!
Yesterday was Shane’s day off from Costco and he got home about 10:00 from seeing patients. I was feeling wanderly and so we decided that we would go into Orem to University Mall to look for me a dress. I dislike Sunday just for the fact that I have no dresses that I like and get sick of wearing the same ones. Before we left I was doing some stuff on the computer and Shane was holding Phia and I took these pictures.
It’s a CD case that she is holding and she loves to play with it. She just moves it around in her hands and looks in the clear cover. They are amazed by such small things! I was excited that I actually found 2 skirts and a shirt at Mervyns. One is black with white polka dots and the other is cream with red flowers along the bottom. We went to lunch at Zupa’s and then headed to the mall. Shane went and changed a diaper while I wandered around Archivers. It was funny because everyone we passed in the mall would say, “She looks like such a happy baby” or some other comment about how smiley she was! She loves her stroller and she was an angel the whole time!
Last Saturday my parents were on vacation and Shane was getting ready to head to work and I was in tears because I was lonely. I usually go up to my mom and dads on Saturday and visit. Shane told me to call Ashley and so I did. She told me to come up and we could hang out because she hates when she is feeling lonely and doesn’t want anybody to feel that way. I headed up to Salt Lake and after dropping Shane off Delphia and I headed to All My Memories. It was the first time I had taken her out by myself and I was so impressed by how good she was! I will have to take her out more often! We headed over to Ashley’s where she made me an excellent peanut butter sandwich and a granola bar. It made me laugh because she asked what I wanted to drink and I told her water was great. She brings out this giant cup that was filled about halfway full and she hands it to me and says, “We’ll start you with this much!” You can tell she is around a 2 year old all day! We played Lost Cities and visited and Delphia enjoyed Emma’s swing. We decided to head to Costco to get out of the house and I had just fed Delphia and set her on the couch to pack her bag and she was out! It was so cute! Ruby promptly climbed up next to her and was trying to talk to her and tried opening her eye! But, no one was going to wake her up! She even slept through the whole Costco trip!
We went back to my mom’s afterwards and hung out till Shane was off and I ended up getting a horrible migraine and calling Ashley and Jed to go pick Shane up because I knew I couldn’t drive. Dallen got home a little after 8 and he took Phia until Shane got home. He sat in the chair with her and played her Disney songs on his cell phone.
Last Friday Ashley and I went to my mom’s to visit before they left on their cruise and we laid Emma and Delphia on the floor next to each other. It is amazing the difference that 3 months makes! They are so cute together and I can’t wait till they can play together and have fun!
Last week I was getting Delphia ready for bed and she was just being her funny self. She was smiling and giggling so I went and got the camera. She is such a slobbery girl lately and her onesie was soaked with slobber but she was still happy as could be!
We took this picture last Tuesday when Shane was home! She is such a happy baby and she just starts grinning the second I get the camera out! I have to apologize for the dark pictures. I took Adobe off my computer and haven’t had time to re-install it.
Valentines Day came late for us this year. We celebrated on Friday. I was going to have Delphia wear her Valentines outfit on the 14th but because of snow and wind the road was closed to get out to Eagle Mountain so we ended up staying over at my parents. Luckily we had enough diapers and outfits for Delphia since we way over pack for her. We had nothing for ourselves though! Dallen was kind enough to give up his bed and we put Delphia in the office in the pack n play. My mom had extra deodorant and stuff but it’s not quite like being in your own home. So because of all that, no outfit on Valentine’s Day. She wore it on the 15th and she came with Shane and I to Geckos for lunch and then my mom watched her while Shane and I went up to the U for my MRI.
We don't have Church until 1:00 this year and have kind of made it a goal to get up and get ready so that we aren't rushing to try and get ready at 12:00 and get out the door on time. We took these pictures a couple weeks ago.
It took a couple tries to get a good one of her and I but we got a good one the first try with Daddy!
She is getting really good at moving around in her bed. The other morning I walked in to get her up for the day and found her like this.
Her body is normally going the opposite direction and by kicking her legs she had twisted herself upside down and into the corner of her crib. I took one look at her and knew I had to get a picture to show Shane. I went to get the camera and she started to cry. I came back with the camera and she understood where I had gone.
She is starting to really enjoy toys and she loves to chomp on her piggy bank coins. We spent about an hour playing with the coins and listening to the songs a couple weeks ago.
We did a little photo shoot a while back and she pulled the shyest little face! She is no where close to being shy so I don't know where the look came from but it made me laugh!
Shane's mom brought out a Johnny Jump-Up and an excersaucer 2 weeks ago and Delphia hated the excersaucer! We put her in it and she was okay for a minute until Shane squeaked the crab and then she just lost it! Now everytime we try to put her in it she just cries. Funny thing is she really enjoyed her cousin Emma's last week. It must have toys that are more fun! She likes the jumper but still isn't sure what she is supposed to do in it!
Last Friday she turned 6 months old. I can hardly believe she has been in our faimly for 1/2 a year! It is so much fun to see her do new things and watch the world around her! She is starting to sit up really well but she still has no desire to roll over. She loves to kick her legs and play with peoples faces. She loves pulling Shanes chest hair and loves going for waljs in her stroller. Last week she started making a new noise. It kinda sounds like Ernies laugh on Sesame Street, something like Geeeeeeeeeeeeeee. She is getting more hair and it has a mind of it's own. It just sticks straight up and doesn't like to lay down. She loves eating her baby food but has a color issue I think. She loves bananas, pears and yams but doesn't really like avocado, sweet potato or green beans. She just likes colorless food! Next week when we go grocery shooping we will pick up some new foods and see what she thinks! Here is her 6 month picture!
She is also getting to the point that she is content in her highchair so that I can do dishes or eat some lunch. She loves it when I give her lids from the tupperware to play with!
On Monday we had Ashley, Ruby and Emma ove to our house and we had a grand ole time! We read some of Delphia's books, played with toys, made an attempt at watching Poppins, ate chili and muffins and went for a little walk around the neighborhood! We will defintely have to have them out again soon!
Well Delphia is up from her nap so we are going to go play on the floor and then take a walk later this afternoon!
