8 months old!

WOWZER!!!!!  The past eight months have absolutely flown by.  I honestly can't believe Delaney is eight months old today.  As of recently, she is into "sharing".  She will give me a toy, give Brady his bone, share her food...and can I just say how much it melts my heart?  She is just so stinkin sweet and cute and totally lovable.  Yes, even when she's "crabby" - as some people call her (hmmm, hmmm, The Godfather).  I like to say that she isn't crabby, she is just Delaney.  She knows what she wants and if she doesn't get what she is looking for, she simply tells you... in her own, high pitched way!

Every day she is reminding more and more of Dan.  How?  Well, first off - she thinks that she is the funniest thing to have EVER graced the Earth.  Second, she MUST be the center of attention, and if you aren't paying attention to her, she will somehow, someway, get your attention by all means necessary.  Third, she studies people HARD!  She won't just let anyone into her little circle of life.  It takes her a long time to feel comfortable around people.  She most definitely has her favorites.

We had her very first photo shoot a couple of weeks ago.  I wanted to do it when she was first born but between the sleep deprivation and constant crying (sometimes from her, sometimes from me) we postponed it.  I have attached a couple of my favorites.

She is so incredibly strong (and strong willed) and is wanting to pull herself up on everything she possibly can.  She has succeeded once that I know of.  Now, she can get up to her knees and then scares herself.  I am not rushing this one!  You take your time, little lady.  I love the age she is now and she is just full of giggles and fun!  Happy 8 month birthday my beautiful angel.  Mommy loves you more than you will EVER know!
