Oh so fun

I don't have any new pictures as my camera has been tucked away inside my office for quite some time. Today is a good day to pull it out I think, but Lilyana is doing some cute things that I don't want to forget She has a new interest in books these days and when she sees a picture of anything she likes she puts her little arms out to the picture and says up up. It is very sweet and oh so innocent. When we tell her that we love her she now says too. As in I love you too. And every night before bed she makes Peter and I come down and sit on the floor and then repeatedly gives Dada hug mama hug dada kiss mama kiss and then repeat. So our lack of kisses as I mentioned in her birthday post is now over and we have moved on to love in abundance. Peter Lily and I are also having a dance off every evening while Peter cooks dinner. I took a video last night of Daddy and Lily dancing but I don''t think I'm aloud to post Daddy doing the running man :) We are having so much fun in the Delap household.






Last year on the 18th of November Lilyana became Lilyana Rubi Delap officially in the American courts. It was Adoption Day and she joined in a ceremony with other Sacramento children being adopted. It was a very special day their were children of all ages and nationalities some international adoption and some domestic. We felt very honored to take part in such a meaningful day. Lily also got her hand painted and put on a tile that may be displayed in a collage on the courthouse walls. She was just newly 1 and didn't understand why they were painting her hand but she thought it felt funny and she curled her fingers every time we put it down on the plaque.
