7 Weeks Old

Delaney is smiling much more!

This is the pouty face she makes right before she lets out a big cry:

Her first trip to the grocery store:

 She met Aunt Vanessa:

and Aunt Lizzy:

Out to breakfast with us, she was a sweet little angel.

6 Weeks Old

Delaney currently weighs 9 lbs 3 oz and is 22" long. Last weekend, we took her to the cabin for the very first time. She fell asleep on her first boat ride, and she gave me her first big smile. We're still waiting for more smiles, but I'm sure it'll happen soon. She's going through about 10 diapers per day (big improvement from 15 per day). She also met Aunt Megan Lane and Aunt Katie Burke! 

1 Month Old

Delaney is already 1 month old! On July 15th, she weighed in at 7 lbs 15 oz and 20.5" long. On Saturday, she met her grandma and grandpa Dean for the first time.  Uncle Danny, Aunt Elizabeth, and cousin James Westerman visited and got to spend time with her. She's able to track moving objects with her eyes, and she is starting to use her voice to make "ooh" and "ah" sounds. She began using a pacifier this past week (she's loving it). 

In a milk coma. I love that little tummy:

 So much to look at! She seems to enjoy it:

Her little foot is as long as my middle finger:

3 Weeks Old

Delaney is 3 weeks old today! Right now:
- She's going through an average of 15 diapers per day.
- She seems to be most awake and alert around 3:00/4:00am.
- She doesn't like her arms being tucked into a swaddle. She fights it and always manages to push her arms out.
- She loves sleeping with either her hands touching her face, or with her arms stretched above her head.
- She doesn't mind tummy time. She spends most of the time pushing her booty into the air, but she does a great job picking up and turning her head every now and then.

Meeting her cousin, James, for the first time:

Sticking her little booty in the air:

I take way too many pictures of her sleeping. I can't help myself.

She found her thumb again! She was tired of waiting for me to feed her:

2 Weeks Old

She loves listening to music with her papa:

She's so teeny!

We caught her sucking her thumb for the first time:

The Big Day!
