Day at the beach

Well, I guess this just tells ya what a bad mom I really am....it's the end of July and we (the kids and I) have only been to the beach once!! We went yesterday with Grandma **Thanks Mom!**, and not only was it our first visit of the summer, but it was Delilah's 1st visit as well! I was not sure how well she would handle the beach; with the sand and the ocean and all that. She did FANTASTIC!! She was born to be at the beach! She loved the sand, so much that she kept attempting to eat it!! And then there was the water, not only was it warm, but she just walked right into it. She wadled her way down the sand, and right into a wave! It was so cute! So, we thought we would let her ride the boogie board...She was in heaven!! She would sit on all 4's and hold on to the side, and ride the wave all the way to shore. Now, we weren't out super far, but she had a blast just the same. The whole way in, she was yelling," Weeeeeee!" It was hilarious! Can't wait to take her back again, and this time Daddy has to come too!

Minnie Mouse is 1 year old!!

Sad, but true Delilah Rose turned 1 year old this week. We celebrated by a pool party at Grandma's and the most awesome Minnie Mouse cupcake cake courtesy of Auntie Catt's Bakery. Then on her "actual" birthday it was off the "Happiest Place on Earth" for singing and cake with the Mouses'. It was so much fun! And Delilah had a blast!!

She is just growing up so fast, she started taking some steps independantly on Sunday, and it has only continued as she grows more and more confident in her mad skills. She is already 20 lbs 4 oz, and is 28 1/2 inches tall. She handled her shots on her birthday of all days like a champ! She was even all smiles at Disneyland for Minnie Mouse! I think that was the highlight of her day, I am sure!! She was very sad that she couldn't grab Mickey and Minnie..she was COVERED in frosting by the time they showed up! Can't wait to watch her grow, but am so sad to know that she is the last "baby" that this family is going to see..ever. Now we all have to live vicariously through all the cousins!! But I am sure that it's going to be o.k.!!
