Delia Turns Two

Dave and Jen threw a great party for Delia's second birthday. I goofed up the order of the pictures, but you'll get the idea. The kids and adults all had a GREAT time! Delia loves Shamu, so they had a water party. Great for a big front yard in the summer!
Yes, this pool was a bubble bath. It was Jonathan's favorite spot. Best quote of the day: "May I please have some help getting the soap out of my ear?" What a great idea. The pool, I mean, not the soap in the ear.

Grace's second party nap, and the reason I don't have pictures of the second half of the party. The first nap was in Delia's crib. (Delia just transitioned to the big girl bed and is sharing a room with Ella. Great job, Delia!) This second one was an accidental nap. She fell asleep in my lap, which was a sweet treat for me. At home she always sleeps in her crib. And, by the way, I think she is developing a preference for Mommy. The other ladies held her but she fussed for me if she heard my voice or saw me. Oh, dear.

Sweet Delia at the craft table. I told Jen that it didn't seem like long ago that I was holding her at the hospital. Not because that's just something you say when kids grow up-but because it really seems like it wasn't very long ago!

Like I said, it was his favorite.


Here's how Grace looked from my vantage point. Sweet baby on a warm, summer day.

Oh so that's where you were! Fun to see the party from your perspective. :)

Thanks for coming today, great to catch up with you a bit and see Jonathan having so much fun in the bubbles. Oh and we love the "You're All My Favorites" book-- read it before bed tonight.
