New Toys!

Reading her new Elmo book in her new chair!

She loves her Elmo Live- Here she is squeezing his nose to hear the honk noise!
Hugging Elmo


Kissing Elmo
This Elmo plays music... and you can sing into the microphone-
well Delaney just puts it in her mouth and hums.
She got three sets of blocks and they all go together! She loves building tall towers.
So proud of herself!
Dancing with the reindeer that sings Feliz Navidad!
Going grocery shopping!
Cooking up a yummy meal!
Playing with her baby that tells body parts...she loves when it tells her to tickle it's tummy!
Tea Party anyone?
Yummy tea!
Time for a little clean up!
The baby wanted to swing... she was saying "whee"!
Aw baby... kiss kiss baby!
After cooking the baby a hot dog and telling the baby it was hot she feeds the baby with a spoon.
After the baby ate it needed a nap she told the baby "night night" and put it in the bed and covered it up!
Delaney got lots of puzzles- she likes to get them all out and take out all the pieces!

Delaney is loved very much because she got so many cool toys and clothes for Christmas! This isn't nearly all of them but just what she got out in her morning playtime today. I'm sure to get pics of the rest sooner than later!
It is absoultely hilarious to watch her play with her kitchen set, pots, pans and playfood. She cooks and grills on the grill, gets ice from the ice maker and feeds her babies in the high chair. She stirs and "tastes" what she is cooking and using the microwave always telling the baby whatever she made is "hot." She picks up the play phone and says "hi, yeah , yeah, yeah, bye bye" then pushes the button like she is hanging up. Sometimes she will come and tell us who is on the phone.... often it is Dadda, Mama or Maya. She will take breaks to put her baby to bed or push the baby in the swing, stroller or grocery cart. She likes loading food into the cart and then dumping it all out!
She loves all of her new toys and I could go on for hours about how she plays with them! I'll spare you for now.. but hope you'll enjoy the pics!

The Four Days of Christmas


















These are almost in backwards order but mostly mixed up.... so I applologize! Getting four days worth of pictures in one post was a crazy idea! Delaney had a wonderful Christmas and it is official that she is spoiled.... or LOVED quite a bit! I'll be updating later in the week with pictures of her playing with all her new toys at home.... but here ar e afew of our celebrations. I forgot my camera on Christmas Eve....so I have to get those from my mom... and thank you to Tammy for sending me pics from Friday and Saturday and my camera battery died! Not so organized was I? Delaney loved opening presents but wanted to play with each one after opening it. That could have taken forever! She was such a good girl and said thank you to each person who gave her a gift. I think she enjoyed to comotion and excitment as well..... she spent a lot of time dancing....she danced when the big kids played Guitar Hero Rock Band... and she danced with Grandma's singing and dancing Santas too. We want to thank all of our family for making Delaney's Christmas so special. She is having a blast playing with all her new toys today!

Christmas Photo Shoot

Merry Christmas and Happy New year...
from our family to yours!
Most of you saw this on the Christmas Card.

This one was a surprise gift for my mom and dad!
scrunchin' up her nose!
Mommy's girl!


I couldn't post these sooner as the one of all of us (my brothers included) was a Christmas Gift for my mom and dad. We did this photo shoot at the Grand Basin of Art Hill. It was sooo cold that day so we had to keep wrapping Delaney up in her coat to get her warm! The pics turned out great though!



Christmas Crafts







Here are some pictures of Delaney making ornaments and her gingerbread house. She loved sticking the ornaments on the trees... we'll be finding more sticky foam crafts soon! As far as the gingerbread house goes.... I think she ate more candy and icing then ended up on the house... but she had a good time.
