Delainey is 18 months!!

Little Delainey is 18 months old. She is such a joy to all of us and is still the topic of conversation--have you seen Delainey this week? Did you hear that Delainey....? Delainey can do....

This week I went to Devin and Sarah's to watch Delainey on Thursday night while they went to church. The door opened and she saw me. I smiled, she smiled, the smile got bigger and then she ran to me saying "yaya, yaya!!" It still melts my heart, three days later. While I was watching her, Jenna and Erik came over to see her. Before the night was over, she was saying "nenna" (Jenna) and "air-kuh" (Erik). (She puts a very definitive 'k-sound" on words that end with K: milk, book, and now Erik.) It is SO much fun to see her learning so quickly. Everytime I'm with her, I am amazed by how smart she is and how much she can do. What a perfectly delightful 18 months these have been--and I am SO excited to watch her continue to grow throughout the years! (Pictures courtesy of Sarah....) :-)
