Pearly Whites at 39 Weeks

Thank goodness for Spring Break! Shelby and I had too much fun together this past week since I was off. We went shopping with the Gorman Girls, had a lunch date with an old friend, and celebrated 2 holidays. First we had St. Patricks day and then Easter this past Sunday where Miss Shelby had her first tooth break through. YEAH!!!!




We enjoyed sunday morning at home with all of the Gorman Girls diving into their Easter baskets follwed by an egg hunt at the house. The Gormans and Hazelbarths all joined us later in the afternoon for the church egg hunt followed by the 5:00 Easter service and dinner at our house. It was a fun, but crazy day. Earlier in the week Shelby and I joined my old friend Taylar for lunch at Kim-Sons where she threw an enourmous fit and I still do not know why, butI am guessing her teeth had something to do with it. She did play for a few minutes with her little girl Izzey that is 3 weeks younger to the day.
That afternoon and in much better spirits, we joind Nana, Babs, Ty, Sylvia and baby Sofie on a trip to Thc Children's Museum. The girls had a really good time.

On Monday I got to take her to the park for the first time. She got to slide, crawl through the tunnel and play with the musical chimes. Shelby and I had too much fun together, but now I am back at work counting the days till school is out so I can spend more time with her again.

On Saturday I took Shelby to have her Easter pictures taken at Babies R Us, they turned out awesome!

Feeling Lucky at 38 Weeks

My lucky charm has had a fun and busy week once again.  She is really enjoying her new found freedom around the house. She is crawling all over and pulling up on everything.  She is pulling up so much that we had to put her crib on the lowest setting so that she will not topple out of it.
  


We also went to see the Easter Bunny this past week with her cousins as well as Ishy and Uncle Josh.  See the previous post for the official Easter Bunny picture. 


Shelby also enjoyed her first St. Patrick's Day all decked out in green making sure not to get pinched. 


On Friday Shelby also had her first trip to the Rodeo with Angie and Josh's crew again. Apparently she was not a huge fan of the Pig Races.  They said she screamed when they started because it was so loud.  Other than that she really enjoyed getting to meet all the animals.


Shelby also has outgrown her infant seat, and to my sadness, we had to get her a new big girl car seat.  She is not real sure of it yet though, but did enjoy her first trip in it to the mall.

Happy Easter!

Shelby got to go visit the Easter Bunny at the mall this past Wednesday.  She was not scared at all, I was so impressed.  Enjoy and Happy Easter to all!

She's on the move at 37 weeks!












My baby girl is crawling!!!!  Late Saturday night Shelby started crawling because she just so wanted to grab Tobie's tail, it was the funniest thing.  She also got to eat her first cookie, a vanilla wafer.  It was her Dad's idea.  I looked over and they were both eating a cookie.  She really enjoyed it and gnawed on it till there was very little left, because she still has no teeth.  She is just the cutest thing.  She also went to the doctor and got good news about her ears, they are starting to look a lot better and we may not have to have tubes.  YEAH!!!  She is also weighing in at 18 lbs. 2 oz. now.  She goes back in 2 more weeks for her 9 month check up and they will check her ears again and I pray she gets the all clear!

36 Weeks






My sweetie is 36 weeks old this past Tuesday. She is still not crawling, but is managing to get around. I looked over last night and she was standing playing with one toy and a few seconds later I turned back around and she was up standing at another toy. She is good. She had an eventful week otherwise, she spent Friday with Mimi and Popa at the Zoo and visiting her Great Grandmothers. On Saturday I took her to have her pictures made again. She is getting to be too tall. I had bought her a dress this past week for her pictures, but could not use it because her bootie hung out the bottom too much. That is okay though she still looked SO cute in her pictures. On Sunday Mimi and Popa joined us for chuch and spent the afternoon with us as well. Shelby had a few first's this week. She got to try some fruit flavored puffs that are made to disolve in the babies mouth, but as you can tell she was not a huge fan. She also got to try yogurt, but again was not very sure of that either. Shelby is still loving her baby food though and continues to thrive and enrich our lives more and more each week.
