13 months old...

What a fun month it's been!

Since Delilah learned to walk, she has been practicing walking everywhere we go! 


Anytime I am walking, I hold her hand so she can practice... the stroller was practically put away this month! 
...that method worked! She can walk completely on her own now,  even up and down stairs! 
Way to go, Delilah!


This month was FILLED with fun stuff! 
Of course we still have our routine of waking up around 7-8am and playing...
Here is her "good morning" face...
 Sweet baby!
I love her little almond-shaped eyes in this picture!


Since we hit the "1 Year" mark...
 we made a big change in the car...
 Front facing car seat! 
Woohoo! 
I think we were all ecstatic about this one! 
She likes watching out the front window while we're driving (it sure beats staring at the back seat), and we love seeing her in the rearview mirror!

We had "80s Day" at the house, too! 
Mommy & Delilah dressed in their best 80s attire... it was fun! 
Here is Delilah dancing outside, looking very 80s...

Family Day's are very important to us... 
we LOVE spending time with Daddy!
We love yogurt, too! So family yogurt dates are the best!

We also got another visit from her friend, Avril, this month! 
The girls love playing together...

 Sometimes we go shopping at Fry's Electronics...
 We always go to the Manhattan Beach location because it has...
a Koi pond! 
Delilah loves watching all the huge fish make bubbles at the surface... they swim right to her!




And to save the best for last...

Hands down, our favorite event of the summer fell this month...

Google's Summer Beach Party!

Oh, it was such a blast! 

This year, the party was hosted by Gladstones Malibu
...a grand beachfront restaurant in the Pacific Palisades, featuring several bars, decks, dining rooms, entertainment rooms, and patio seating! Servers walked around with hors d'oeuvres, the open bar was incredible, there was lei making and face painters, a live band and cartoonists... we ate like Kings and had an amazing day! 

While we were there, Delilah met the Pacific Ocean for the first time! 

She was not too fond of it (but neither am I, that water is way too cold for my liking!)... especially after we turned away from the water for picture taking and a giant wave knocked her down... and in her pretty little outfit! :(


We did get a few photos of the big 'Ocean meet & greet'...

 Here she is holding Daddy's hand tight, about to step in the Ocean for the first time... 

...get your camera ready, Ryan!
Pretty little thing! 
Oh yes, that is a little cruise on her cheek! She had a fall a few days prior!:(
...It's a lot to take in, just the sound of the powerful waves was enough sensory for her!

And to top it all off... 


we had a family portrait drawn by one of the cartoonists!
I couldn't get over it, I framed it and now it hangs in our dining room lol!

Our awesome family!
