I will be posting more pics this weekend!

Steam Locomotive!

The Union Pacific Steam Locomotive #844. The last one to be built for Union Pacific came into Nampa. Since Papa Dave works for Union Pacific, we went out to see it. Delaney loves trains so she was very excited to see Papa's choo-choo!

Back from Washington D.C.

Jeff and I went to Washington D.C. to see Boise State take on Virginia Tech at FedEx Field, home of the Washington Redskins. We took in all the sights and ate some great food, but nothing compared to the win over Virginia Tech! Final score was 33-30! We had great seats-we sat with the players and coaches families and were only four rows up from the field!
It was also my first trip away from Delaney-a whole week! She stayed behind with Grandma Nancy and Papa Dave. She did fine, and so did I!

Tony and Mary Pislaan.

We were in Seattle the weekend of August 28th to watch Mary and Tony get married. I was a bridesmaid and Delaney was the flower girl. She did really well until we got under the gazebo for the wedding. She told us she "had to go poopy". So embarassing, Jeff came up and took her away. of course she didn't need to go...
It was a beautiful wedding and it was great to see old faces-Heather Halsey from the neighborhood, Jeremy Walked-Andy's BFF since Preschool, and Mary's friends from high school. It was a great weekend and beautiful weather!

New pictures from our trip to Seattle posted!

Here are a couple of pictures from Seattle. Dinner with my grandparents and the trip to the Seattle Aquarium.

Laney's Big Girl Bed!

I have been off of work most of this week so I have done a few things around the house.
Delaney has a new "big girl" bed. I converted her crib into a toddler bed. Boy was she happy. The excitement quickly wore off and she creeps out of her room a half dozen times through the night and ends up in our bed. Hopefully this wears off soon.....
I had lunch with my friend Allison at the Flatbread Pizza Company-great place to eat especially on the patio to celebrate my birthday.
Thursday, Delaney and I started making our Father's Day gifts for the grandpas and we planted a few new flowers in front of the house.
Enjoy the pictures....

TWO YEAR CHECK-UP DETAILS....

Here are Delaney's latest stats:

Weight: 23.9 lbs (10th percentile)
Length: 32 inches (10th percentile)
Head: 47 1/2 cm (25-50 percentile)

She has another optional visit at 2 1/2 years otherwise we don't have to go back until 3 years.

She is done with all of her vaccinations (except seasonal flu shots) until kindergarten!!! That seems so far away, but yet so close! She is growing so fast!

Second Birthday Pictures are up!

Here are some great pictures from Delaney's party last Saturday! I will hopefully post some pictures from her professional photo shoot soon!

Two new pictures.

Posted two new pictures. One if from the Jersey Shore/Good-bye Holly Party we went to. The other is of Delaney playing cars with my Grandpa Johnson while we were visiting Seattle last week. Enjoy!

Out to dinner with Victor and Allison.

The other night we joined our friends Victor and Allison for dinner at our new favorite restaurant, Brick 29 Bistro. It is in a really cool, old Masonic building. We celebrated Allison's birthday a little early since Delaney and I will be in Seattle for the real one! Now if only we can convince Vic and Al to come along with us to Washington DC this fall. Hint, hint....

Baseball time again.....

It is baseball time again! Delaney's Uncle Brett plays baseball at his college, College of Idaho (formerly Albertson College of Idaho). So we went out to watch a practice scrimmage yesterday in the cold. We took a picture of him up to bat.

Valentine Pictures.

I have been trying to snap some great pictures of Delaney for her Valentine's, but like a normal toddler, she is not being very cooperative. So I think I got one of her last night that I can use. I hope it is a good one. Meanwhile, enjoy some of the "bloopers".

Christmas!

Delaney got everything and more than she wanted for Christmas this year. She got lots of new books, a play kitchen with food, a table and chairs set, and lots of great new toys. She loves all of her Little People sets!

She is saying so many new words. We have learned if we don't want to hear her repeat something we cannot say it around her because she is repeating EVERYTHING. Her favorites thanks to Jeff are Jerk, Creep, and thanks to me, she has learned the phrase "I broke it".

She also loves to be mommy's little helper these days and pulls her chair up to the counter when I am cooking in the kitchen. Right now as a type, she has her chair pulled up to the door of the office trying to open the door and turn on/off the lights.

She is getting so big!
