Please Don’t Mind the Mess…

I’ve started work on porting Del’s site over to a new, more extensible WordPress theme (Typebased from WooThemes) and while the basic structure is up and running, I’ve got to do some work resizing images and videos from older posts.

Basically, if anything currently looks “broken”, fear not, it’ll be fixed soon.

Thanks,

Ouch!!

Del had a rough start to this past week, taking a nasty fall off a chair at daycare and getting himself a nasty looking cut just above his right eye. It was a short “kiddie” chair and not a far fall, but one of the metal legs flipped up and caught Del on the brow.

A doctor’s visit was definitely in order, as I swung by and carted him off to Group Health. Everyone’s big concern was whether or not he’d need to get stitches to close the gash, but luckily, upon examination at the doctor’s office, it didn’t turn out to be particularly deep. His pediatrician actually determined that it was more of a “stretching” of the skin rather than a clean, deep cut, and that it should heal up just fine without further intervention (aside from keeping it clean).

While he was a bit shaken up initially, Del bounced back pretty quickly and was in good spirits by the time we left Group Health. We took a quick detour to Dianne’ work so she could check him out, then back to daycare for the remainder of the day (just in time for lunch!).

To quote the elder statesman of the daycare group, Miles (who’s two), pointing to Del, “Owie!”

Owie, indeed.

Party Pooped

One last birthday photo to add, showing just how worn out Del was after an afternoon and playing and partying…

Delton’s First Birthday Bash!

It’s taken us a bit to get photos posted here and on Flickr, but everyone seemed to have a great time (especially the birthday boy!) at Del’s recent first birthday party. We gathered friends, family, neighbors and daycare classmates on Sunday, October 5th on Mercer Island for two hours of hanging out, BBQ, cake and presents.

As would be expected, Del made off with quite a bit of loot, and quite the sugar rush from his share of the cake!

Musical Prodigy

Del seems to have quite an affinity for music and has been becoming more and more intrigued with my old electric guitar…
