Welcome to the Delaney Rose blog...

Delaney was born January 27, 2010 at 3:09 pm on a snowy Gunnison day. She was 14 weeks premature and weighed 1 pound 15 ounces. We survived 80 days in Grand Junction at St. Mary's NICU, and finally made it home the third week in April. We created this blog while living in GJ so that our friends and family could stay up to date on Delaney's progress. We plan to maintain the site and post when we can, so please enjoy!

A Very Un- HAPPY Day!





We've been counting down the days for months it seems. Discussions have revolved around butterfly cupcakes and special dinners. Despite our best efforts to keep little D healthy for her 3rd birthday, the crud managed to find her and we had no choice but to postpone her celebration. The cold has finally subsided, so the highlight of her birthday was to take a slushy walk to the river. The look on her face pretty well sums up how she's felt for the past five days. We're hoping that by Tuesday or Wednesday she'll be ready to go again and we can make her birthday official. What bad luck!

Chicken Sitting





This weekend we were tasked with chicken-sitting for our friends the Jones'. With Delaney sick, she didn't really get to enjoy it, but checking the coop for eggs was a thrill for Meredith. We'd love to have chickens of our own- the eggs are well worth the work!
