Last Weekend

Last weekend Grandma GiGi and Grandpa Pat came to town. We went to Mila's football game and I played with Mick and Irish! I love them, they are so funny!
Here are some pictures.

I am crawling!

I am really starting to crawl. I get better and better everyday! I love it! I can get into everything. I am going to my first Mustang football game tonight. It should be fun. I am excited to see all the dance team girls to show them how big I am getting. My mommy will try to post some new pictures soon.

Busy Busy Weekend

We had a super busy weekend. First we had mommy's 10 year class reunion in Fort Dodge. Grandma Gigi and Grandpa Pat watched me most of the weekend. Mommy and Daddy had lots of fun. Then we came back to Omaha and went to Uncle Dan and Aunt Julie's house. I got to see Lexi, Kayla and Nikkie there. Also, Grandpa Bud and Julie. Then on Monday we went to some friends lake house and I got to play in the water. I thought it was great until I took a nose-dive when mommy was trying to take my picture. MeMe, Papa, Aunt Jenny and Madison were all there! We were missing Uncle Damon:(

Busy past week!

We have a had a very busy last couple of weeks. Mommy went on Ragbrai with Gigi and Grandpa Pat and auntie Amber. I stayed home with dad. He was ready for mom to come home after the 24 hours was up. Mom and I went to Ames for dance team camp. It was fun hanging out with all the big girls. The girls did really good too. They got 2 trophies and were the best team there! Then we were home for one day and then, off to Okoboji for a weekend with Gigi, Grandpa Pat, aunt Kristy, uncle Ryan, Jessica and aunt Mila and Jamie. We stayed with Sue and Larry. They took us out in the boat on Friday afternoon and all day on Sat. I was so good. I just hung out and slept. I played in the lake a little because it was pretty hot out. This week has been pretty calm. Daddy started taking flying lessons. He had his first session last week and then he goes again today. He is really excited and mommy is excited too, because hopefully some day daddy can take us where ever we want to go;) We went out for dinner with MeMe and Papa on Monday, I met MeMe's high school frind Mary. MeMe and Papa fed me and MeMe let me drink water out of a big girl cup. Grandma Gigi is coming today to help move aunt Mila out of our house. Mommy has to go back to school one week from today. I know she is feeling really sad. I am going to got to Jennifer's house. She lives right across the street from us. Pictures will be posted soon.

I also got to see some other special people including Auntie Lesli, Great Aunt Marcie, and Greatgrandpa and Grandma O'Rourke. I also saw all my Aunties and friends, Amber, Jamie, Jessica, Emma, Andee, Cambree and Samantha. It was a busy week, but really fun! Here are some pictures from the week!

Olympic Swim Trials


Mommy and aunt Mila took me to the Olympic swim trials on Monday. It was my first swim meet! Here is a picture of me there. I thought it was pretty fun for about an hour and then I had poopy pants so I cried right as one of the event was getting ready to start. Mom tried to hush me with the bink and blanket, but I was just too mad:( Then we had to leave for good because mom was too embarrassed to go back to our seats:)

Last weekend



















We had a busy weekend. First Grandma GIGI, Grandpa Pat and Great Grandma Rori came to stay with us Thursday night. We went to Jessica's baseball game. Then uncle Ryan and Aunt Kristy got their marriage blessed Friday afternoon and we went to their house for dinner. A bad storm hit, so we had to stay at MeMe and Papa's house Friday night. We did not have any electricity. There was no damage to our house thank goodness! Here are some pictures from the weekend.
I SPLEPT ALL NIGHT!!! 8:20-7:00am!!!

UPDATES

Delaney's sleeping patterens Delaney was sleeping through the night at 3 months! I was thinking we were doing everything right. We listened to our moms and mixed some cereal in with the breastmilk and Delaney went from 4 hours to 8 in one night. I say WHATEVER to the books that say the amount of food has nothing to do with sleeping. Anyway, she was sleeping through the night for the whole month I was back at school and then wham, I finished school and Delaney decided I didn't need to sleep through the night anymore because I was done with work. So, for the past 2 weeks Delaney and I have spent some quality time together around 3:30am. Ryan and I have tried many different tactics, nothing has worked yet. I am hopeful that tonight is going to be the night. I will keep you posted! Delaney tricks Delaney can roll from back to front and front to back She loves to play with her toys and loves her pink blanket with the satin rim and the binki of course. Delaney is eating green and orange vegetables at dinner time. She doesn't care for squash, but likes carrots and peas. She still perfers rice cereal mixed with breastmilk served in the bottle the best:) She smiles a lot and started giggling. It is sooooo cute. She does tend to avoid eyecontact sometimes. Ryan thinks it is just her personality, I am a little concerned;) That is about all for now!

More Swimming





I get to go swimming all the time. Mommy even took me under the water. I kind of like it:)
Here are some pictures of me swimming this weekend.

New Toy


Mom and dad decided I was getting a little bored just sitting around, so they bought me this really cool toy. I can stand in it like a big girl. Mommy is hoping my bold spot grows in because I am standing more;)

My first Pony Tail


Mommy put my hair in a pony tail for the first time. I do not even cry. I love it when my hair looks pretty!

Me and my bumbo chair


Nick and Nicole's wedding

Mom and dad's friends Nick and Nicole got married in Mexico at the beginning of May and then they had a reception here in Omaha. I got to stay at home with Aunt Jenny and my cousin Madison, but everyone had a great time!

Dam to Dam







Mom ran her first race since I was born on last weekend. She ran with Aunt Mila and Auntie Amber. I was there with Grandma Gigi to cheer them on. We also got to stop and see Mary, Lauren and Andrew Gibb and Auntie Regan while we were in DesMoines.

Swimming




Mom and dad took me over to MeMe and Papa's house to try out the swimming pool. I did not like the pool water, it was way to cold. I loved the hot tub! Papa had it set at just the right temperature for me. It felt just like my bath:)

Me standing







Mom and dad are trying to teach me how to stand on my own. I try to tell them "I'm little" but they do not listen:)

My Aunt Mila






My aunt Mila was babysitting me a lot when mom went back to school. Her and my mom look so much alike sometimes I would just pretend she was my mom for the day. Here are some pictures she took of me when we were hanging out. Also, Grandma Gigi, MeMe, Aunt Kristy, Aunt Jenny and my my friend Brooke helped take care of me the past month. Next August I have to go to a real babysitter.
