"Dunder Miflin this is Delaney"

Slip Slidin' Away

Davis had his sixth birthday party this weekend and Dave and Mandi rented him one of those big inflatable jumpy/slide things. Davis had a blast and kept doing the slide over and over again. Here he is doing one of his stunts---going backwards and on top of his head.




Sorry about the fuzzy picture--but I just had to capture Delaney and her Daddy on the slide. Delaney was very calm during her 2 trips down. She is quite the daredevil.

Delaney loves her Unka Dave. She is quite fond of his goatee and grabs at it and laughs. I personally think Delaney thinks Dave is some kind of a big animal because she is fascinated by him. She loves his whiskery kisses that just make her squeal and squeak.

When I was little I had these 2 cats, Romeo and Sylvester, that I loved to play dress up with. Romeo was very tolerant of being put in dresses and costumes. I am so glad my daughter is tolerant of this type of fun too. She LOVED the lion hat that I put on her and kept it on for about an hour while she played.

ROAR

No, Nana...it's not real. Delaney shows off her hard core side with an "I LOVE MOM" bicep tat.

On Saturday night, Delaney was being really snuggly and silly and as I was holding her, she decided to eat my face. Randy and I were dying laughing.

The Roberts go to Rockville

Randy, Delaney, and I went to Rockville Friday night to stay with Randy's mom and Jack. We went to see Boo Boo (Randy's grandmother) and her husband George because they had traveled in from Mobile, Alabama. Boo Boo was so excited to meet Delaney, especially since Delaney's first word was "Boo" a couple of weeks ago and we had called Boo Boo and had Delaney talk to her on the phone. Now...Delaney hasn't said it since, but that's okay. It was a big family event in Rockville with Dave, Mandi, Davis, Morgan, Aunt Cheri, and George's daughter Natalie.

Davis, Delaney, and I pose while playing. Davis was soooo cute as usual and really loved spending time with me and Delaney. He was such a big helper.

Now, Davis might be smart as a whip but he needs to work on his photography skills. He cut off a bit of Randy's head during this picture with Randy's mom.

Assorted family members with Boo Boo in blue in the middle. I think we caught the last gourgeous weather night that SC will have until the spring. At least on my terms. I am a bit cold when it is under 70 degrees.

Davis really enjoyed taking pictures while we were there. Thank God for digital cameras.

Davis, Morgan, and Delaney play with the two daddies. It is so cute seeing these two big grown men on the floor playing with the kids.

Juliet Turns a "Charming" 32 and Delaney becomes more Independent

Have you ever seen more beautiful eyes?
Delaney has been holding her bottle by herself for about a week now. She is such a big girl.
I still get so excited when I am opening birthday presents. Here is me opening my big-time gift certificate for Randy and I's favorite restaurant, Mo Mo's.
Which one is the Glow Worm and which one is Delaney?

Running and Playing

This weekend I ran in the Ray Tunner 5K race at the old USC baseball stadium. It was awesome running over home plate! This is the first race I have done since before I was pregnant and I really did good. I came in 16th, got first in my age division for women, and had a time of 26:29. I was so proud of myself and now can't wait until the Turkey Day 5 miler!
Delaney jams out wearing her "Lead Guitar" onesie. She is such a badass.
Delaney has been loving her exersaucer. Hours of entertainment.
Randy and I always get really amused when our entire family is in one room. That means me, Randy, Delaney, Tyson, Olive, and Mia. It is a rare treat. Usually one animal is trying to get another one and there are growls and meows and lots of other fun noises. We decided we wanted to capture the moment so here we all are---that's my foot to prove that I am there too.
Watch out SAWWWS. The youngest member can totally kick your ass. Yo yo yo.

SC State Fair

This weekend Randy and I went to the SC State Fair with Trey, Kelli, and Stella. We had a great time and basically stuffed our faces the entire time.




Stella, Kelli, and I got SOOOO excited about getting our picture taken with the two seals. One was named Stella!!!!
We are way too easily entertained.
I get a smooch from the girls.
Kelli and Stella chow down.
The whole gang with Randy demonstrating how he feels after that last Polish sausage.

Model Baby

Gap is doing this casting call for cute babies and I totally entered this picture in the contest. How adorable is Delaney all wrapped up for our morning walk?

On another note, Delaney's teacher Angela says that Delaney should have been a redhead because of her deviousness. My angel?

Delaney responds to Palin's comments during the VP debate

I don't think I have ever laughed harder in my life---and not at Delaney either. From the line "We both love Israel" to the "nuclear weapons would definitely be the end all" to saying "O'Biden"---it was priceless. I feel a little more at ease now.

Happy New Year Little Mozart!

Delaney pretends she is Amadeus.
Nana plays with Delaney at the Rosh Hashanah celebration dinner at her house.

Check out the new M bib. Stylin.

Delaney is a pianist

Delaney loved her first experience with the piano. I am so so proud. Lessons will begin soon.
