8 weeks old, A visit to the Aquarium & Easter Eggstravaganza :)


We have had a busy couple of days!! On Friday, sweet Delaney turned 8 weeks old!! It is hard to believe on Tuesday we will be going for her 2 month checkup!!
She is such a happy girl! She has really started smiling ALOT lately..it's just precious. When she wakes up in the morning I start talking to her and she just grins and grins. It really melts my heart :)

Yesterday Allen had the day off so I thought we should have a family outing! We went up to Gatlinburg to Ripley's Aquarium! If you haven't been it is really neat. I can't wait to go back when she is older and can really enjoy some of the hands on things. She did really well for being so young though. She was wide awake the whole way up there so I worried she would be fussy, but of course, she was perfect.

Excited about going to the Aquarium!

Waiting in line to get in :)
She really was alert and wide eyed...taking in all the sounds and colors. It was so sweet!!
Riding on the moving belt through the shark exhibit..they were swimming all around us!!

We had a great time and were so glad our little girl was so good! We even went to the outlets afterwards and she didn't make a peep ;) I didn't buy anything (Shocking!!!) because I just got so overwhelmed!! I love little girl clothes!!

Today we had our Easter Eggstravaganza at church! Obviously Delaney is too little to hunt eggs, but I wanted to get her picture made with the Easter bunny, and it was a beautiful day!! It was so great to see so many people, especially those who hadn't met Delaney yet :)

All ready for the Easter Eggstravaganza :)

 We had a great time and can't wait to take Delaney to church in the morning for the first time :) She has a beautiful Easter dress and I can't wait to give her an Easter basket :) I love being a mommy and I love this little girl so much!!

Gigi & Gran-Dan Come to Visit :)

On Thursday I had lunch with some sweet friends from church, Tina & Olivia :) We went to Chili's and ate lunch and they loved on Delaney. It was so nice to see them!
On Friday my Mom and Stepdad came into town. Dan hadn't met sweet Delaney yet and he was just so amazed at what a good baby she was :)

Friday night we went to Outback and then came back to the house and visited for a bit. Saturday we got up and the boys did some manly things (put in a storm door and surround sound speakers :) YAY Dan!), and us girls did what girls love to do... WE WENT SHOPPING!! I absolutely LOVE having a little girl because the clothes are so precious :) We went to Kohls first and between the 2 of us we probably could have bought every outfit in Delaney's size! But we didn't :) Next we went to the mall so I could spend some of my Gymboree gift card! I have dreamed of the day when I could go into this store and shop for my daughter instead of looking for someone else! They had some pretty good sale items so we got a few things for Delaney to wear in the Fall/Winter. I also bought her an adorable bathing suit!!
Is this not the cutest thing ever?? :) 

After that we went to Lifeway and I got Delaney her first bible with her name on it!! It is part of her Easter basket :) I cannot wait for Easter Sunday!! She gets her first Easter basket, her first Easter dress, and her first trip to church :) What a wonderful day!!

We also went to Ross and Marshalls (love those stores!!) then stopped off at Froyoz and came home. For dinner we met Allen's parents at P.F. Changs... YUM!!

Our little family :) Delaney is wearing an adorable top with gray cords from Gigi :)

We are supposed to get pictures done tomorrow night so I'm hoping the rain holds off! We had a great weekend with all the grandparents. We are so blessed!


One of my Mom's sweet friends Sylvia made this blanket for Delaney. She was posing for the camera here ;) HA!!!
