One Month!


It's August 7, 2009 at 3:16pm - Shelby is one month old!

She's celebrating by hanging out with her daddy right now. They're so cute together!

Some Shelby facts:
  • She is growing by the minute and has the most adorable chubby cheeks. She's still going to be wearing newborn clothes for a while, which is perfect because she has so many great outfits in that size.
  • She lifts her head up independently really well.
  • She's got quite a grip and has managed to pull out some of mom's hair on a couple of occasions.
  • She likes to be swaddled but always works her arms out of the blanket so she can sprawl out and be comfortable.
  • She's recently tried out her bouncy chair and although she still gets a bit lost in it, she loves it.
  • She's becoming a binky baby. She's so small that the binky takes up half of her little face!
  • She likes baths but isn't so fond of having her diaper changed.
  • She's definitely a cuddle baby, which is great because we love to hold her.
  • She's a great sleeper, even with noise all around. Hooray for that!
We love our little girl and are having so much fun being parents. We couldn't be happier.

Happy one month, little Shelby!

There's a theme here: more pics!!! Tell Tom to search inside himself for the "picture gene"--it comes from our Dad.

We love all three of you to pieces! Happy 1 mo. bliss.
