Dalya Joy's World

Today I went to a swing set for the first time.  It was was such a sunny and butiful day.  Mommy and daddy packed me up and headed to the closest park.  And this was a speacial park at that.  My Pa, Daddy’s daddy, built the beautiful wrought Iron entrance way to the park.  I really enjoyed the swing very much.

Today I got dressed up for a very important day.  No, it was not a holiday, not the first day of school, not my birthday.

It was the opening day of baseball season!

Mommy outfitted me in all my pink New York Yankees gear, and we sat down to watch our Yankees take on those gross Red Sox. The game was on very late, so I had to go to bed before the game was over. I hear it turned ugly, but in my dreams the Yankees killed ’em.

Dalya Watches Opening Day with Mommy and Daddy

After a cold winter in South Florida it was finally time to jump into the pool and enjoy the sun and fun. But of course with my crazy daddy it is not that easy.   Daddy spent weeks of neurotic researching before finally settling on an appropriate sunscreen ( Baby Blanket ) for my precious little skin. Then came the pool itself… Daddy had to make sure that it was just perfect for his little lady.  He must have gone back and forth to the pool store to get the water tested about a dozen times. After daddy was satisfied that everything was Ok mommy headed to the store to get me the cutest swim suits.

With Aunt Melissa chilling on the hammock and Nana watching Daddy and Mommy lathered me up with tons of sunscreen.  They made sure every inch of me was covered…even my little toes.  You could smell the suntan lotion a mile a way.

Mommy brought me in while daddy took some pictures.  It was like I had been swimming for years.  I loved the water.  As daddy and mommy were a little shocked by how cold it was even thought it was hot out side I didn’t seem to mind.  I was splashing in the water and enjoying every minute.  I was not scared one bit. Just mommy and daddy went in with me.  Yogi stayed on the side and acted as the lifeguard on duty.  I can’t wait to have lots of people over to go swimming.  Maybe I can even get Nanna and Grandma in.    It is going to be a very fun filled wet summer!!!!

Drying off with Aunt Melissa

Who needs a fancy play pen or baby gates when you have a box?

Today I spent the day with daddy while he was editing pictures from a ton of shoots. Roaming free in his office is a bit dangerous so Daddy’s quick thinking led to me having lots of fun right beside daddy.  It also made for a cute photo!  I hope the toys I get are bigger so daddy has more boxes for me to play in.

Lately I have started to make my way around the house.  I have been working out the arms pretty hard.   I mainly do this by scooting myself backwards.  This works pretty good.  However,  occasionally I would get my self a little stuck.  The favorite place to get stuck seems to be the bookcase.  But that is ok, cause I love taking down the books and flipping through the pages.
