Delayna at 1

D's not talking to me so I guess I have to write this for her. At one Delayna is a crack up. She is definately a toddler and is all over the house. She has completely abandoned crawling and it bopping all over. She does not do leisurly strolling about the house. She's off! It totally cracks me up. Her favorite toys are the little white screw covers off the toilets (yes, absolutely disgusting!), pencils (she finds them EVERYWHERE) and a green bouncy ball that just barely fits in her mouth (she's thinks it's hilarious.) She babbles constantly and uses great body language to help her make her point. Everything from the full head back belly laugh to big emphatic head nods when she's serious. She loves to dance and if she hears anything resembling music she'll be grooving! Occasionally she'll eat some real food now, but still loves her ma, ma, ma. And no, that's not mom it's milk and she'd like it warm and in a bottle NOW PLEASE. She still has major stranger anxiety so good luck making friends. Ryan has high hopes for Thanksgiving since he'll be here for a week. Yeah! It's sad that she doesn't like new people much because she is so fun and has so much . . . how should we say it . . . personality, but other people don't get to see it since she WON'T LEAVE MY LAP. But we love her and are glad she decided to show up in our family. Happy one year Baby D.
