On April 25th Delaney Grace was baptized at Central UMC. Many of our family and friends showed up to show their love and support for us and our baby. Even her Grandma and Grandpa from North Carolina came to be with us on such a special day. After Pastor Bob baptized Delaney, he took her to see the choir and down the aisle so the congregation could get a closer look. She was such a good baby and didn't cry at all. I was completely shocked. It was a beautiful service. Afterwards most of us headed back to our house for lunch. It was the perfect day. We are truely blessed to have Delaney Grace in our lives. We are so proud of her!

Easter

The Easter Bunny was good to my kids this year. No big surprise there! The morning began with the kids looking through their baskets and getting ready for church. Jordan's basket had a soccer ball, football, basketball, candy, Diary of a Wimpy Kid book, DS video game and Peeps (which became his new favorite Easter candy). Kierstin's basket had a princess doll which included a horse, carriage and castle. She also had a Wii game and candy. Delaney's basket had a very cute bunny named Foofey (named by the kids) along with giant plastic eggs with Little People in them and a book. She loved holding the plastic eggs.

After the Easter basket fun we headed to church. Delaney was happy in her Grandma's arms during the service. She played with the paper bulletin and managed to stay awake until the very end of the service. Jordan and Kierstin enjoyed the egg hunt out in the court yard. There were so many eggs that they had to quit picking them up so the little kids could get some. I enjoy sitting back and watching them run around and have a good time.

The rest of our day was spent at home. Grandma Fisch, Grandpa Fisch and Aunt Liz came over for lunch. Then Grandma and Grandpa Kammeyer stopped by in the evening with more goodies for the kids. So I'd say we had a great Easter with our family!!

7 Months Old!

The months are just flying by! Delaney turned 7 months old on April 6th. She's just a busy, happy little baby and we love her so much. I just can't get enough of her chubby little cheeks and the oh so cute rolls on her arms and legs. Here are some highlights of my precious baby girl's development thus far..

* Sitting all by herself now and has been doing this for probably a month.

* Rolling in both directions.

* Does full push up's and is trying to get up on her knees.

* Tries to grab everything and anything that is within her reach or out of her reach.

* Repeats the "mama" sound and enjoys to talk to herself with baby babble.

* Picking up cheerios pretty easily with the pincher grasp.

* Loves to play Peek-a-boo.

* Starting to get upset when I leave the room.

* Recognizes her own name.

* Bounces up and down while in her highchair or on my lap.

* Loves to eat carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, applesauce and pears.

* Hates green beans, peas, and bananas.

* Sleeping 10-12 hours at night now.
