Charlotte is home and Delaney is clean!

Charlotte had the greatest trip to Chicago. She has the greatest Uncle Dylan and Aunt Jennie in the world! They took her to get deep dish pizza (SO JEALOUS). They took her out to a restaurant called Minis where everything is...well...mini! They went to see the Blue Man Group, where up on the big screen it said HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARLOTTE M*******(it actually spelled her last name). How totally 100% awesome is that!?!?!?!?! She then came back, watched a movie, and went to bed. She bought souvenirs for she and Julia with her birthday money (thanks Gramme). She got them both a shirt from BMG and an eraser from the Art Institute. How sweet was it that she thought about her sister. Even admitted that she totally missed her and us! Woohoo go our family for creating such a bond that our 12 year old missed us only being gone for a day!!! :) Julia was a wreck without Charlotte around and she made her a card that said how much she loved her. Ahhh the sweet moments in life! Now I am going to make lunch for us (getting rid of the last bits of meat in the house before we only cook veggie here at home). Steak with blue cheese crumbles for me, Julia, and Charlotte. Baked chicken for Jess. With mashed sweet potatoes and steamed green beans. YUMMMMMMM!!!!

Delaney was a little fussy on the way home from the airport. I even brought a bottle of breastmilk in case she got hungry. She didn't want the breastmilk. She didn't want the binkie. She didn't want kisses. So I told Charlotte to see if she'd lick on the sucker I had just long enough to calm her till we got home. Low and behold the child LOVED the sucker. Held it in her OWN hands sticking it in and out of her mouth. Crazy kid...which meant lots of sticky all over her. So we took a bath when she got home. She likes to sit up, loves to splash in the water, and likes floating on her back. Well I decided to get her baby bath (thanks Dylan and Jennie) and put it in the big tub. Then put her bumbo (thanks Carla and Vincent) in the baby bath so she could sit up and splash. Here's how she looked.

Does anyone else see the red in her hair?!


Also we wanted to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDPA MIKEY!!!!!
