Two Months

Just for fun, I wanted to document how similar Dalanie and Delsie look as babies.
The top one is Dalanie, bottom one is Delsie.  No wonder I'm always mixing up names.  (Actually Ruby is thrown into the mix quite often and will just ask why I called her such and such.)
Delsie is such an easy going little girl.  It doesn't matter if I nurse her, throw her a bottle, or use the closest pacifier- she takes it all.  She is especially noisy in the morning when she is waking up.  She grunts as she stretches and toots.
Her big sisters love mothering her.  In the beginning Dalanie claimed her as her own baby, but now is content to just be a helper with her.  Delsie tolerates it all quite well until she gets a blanket over her face or pacifier forced and held in her mouth.  It makes her mad and then she overheats. 
Not too happy about turning two months old.  I tried for a cute photo shoot throughout the day and for a few days too but the milestone happened and shots ensued.  I can't blame her for being a bit upset with me.
Sleeping babies are so peaceful.  Nothing puts me to sleep faster than holding one.  At this point in time she is our: Delsie McGee, Dels, and McGeely.  During Christmas, my parents asked Ruby what her new baby's name was going to be.  Without much hesitation, she came up with McGee and it's kind of stuck.

Aren't those cheeks kissable?  It's a vicious cycle, they're so kissable and the kisses I'm sure are what make her thrive and grow and be so kissable.

In some of the last pictures she reminds me of Grandma JoAnn with those cheeks and her coloring.
