Quick Update

I think this is the longest I've gone without blogging since I started the thing...it's definitely the longest since Delilah was born. Not sure why I took a hiatus, but I thought I'd at least hop on for a second and do a quick post.
Hadn't taken a picture of Delilah sleeping in awhile, so here she is napping. Despite being a big girl now, she still likes to be wrapped in her blanket before she goes down. You can see she likes snuggling her mini-Runyon. (You might also see the scratch on her cheek; sometimes walking is hard...that file cabinet came out of nowhere).

And here are her 3 favorite books. She wants us to read them to her over and over. and over. and over. If she's not ready to stop, she throws the book at our heads. I have read Stella the Star literally 20 times in a row before. Well, I read it through 3 times in a row, then I started giving her a synopsis of each page, then I started saying one word on each page, then I just stayed quiet as she flipped the pages. But we did go through it 20 times.
And here is her favorite toy. You push a button and all the gears turn. The gears also come off and stack up. She is her father's daughter.
And here are a couple pics of Runyon...getting so big. I'll try to get some pics soon of Delilah and Runyon playing together--it's so cute!

Yes, I have missed you and I'll have you know it's all your fault how much time I spend in this land of blog. I can't even express how much I love that picture on your header. Her hair, and her smile, and.. oh wait... I can't express it.

Love the sleeping pics! So cute! Our boys love the ISpy books too! I'll keep some of your tricks in mind - like reading one word on the page! :)

Rachael, D is so beautiful. I can't believe she's already 1. I'm very much looking forward to seeing you sometime soon and hearing all about the comings and goings at the Huntley house!
