Climbing

It looks like our precious little girl is going to be a climber. She seems to head straight for the box instead of the toy no matter what we give her. Plus, she heads directly for our stairs if we don't keep her corralled!

On another note, while the rest of you were enjoying a snow day at home, I had to open the pharmacy by 9:00 this morning. It took me over an hour to go less than 3 miles to work. The big truck I am now driving got stuck on a hill, and four really nice men from the Mexican food restaurant nearby had to come pile in the back of the truck to add some weight. If only they would have brought a pitcher of margaritas with them!

Does Anyone Speak Baby Babble?

I'm not sure what she is saying, but Shelby has become quite chatty in the past few days. Can anyone interpret this for us?

Sorting Laundry

No free rides around here! Shelby earns her keep by sorting laundry for Mama...or just making a mess of it all! Why does every picture have an extra layer of drool??

Bryon caught her in the act trying to climb out of the crib. The bumpers have since come down, and the mattress has been lowered to prevent a major crash. All we need is a big bruise or broken bone...

Shelby loves mealtime, especially the sweet foods like mango and banana. We found guava babyfood in New Mexico, and that seemed to be her all-time favorite. Too bad we can't find more in Texas! She is so funny while eating, making lots of "mmm" sounds. It's the littlest things she does that melts our hearts.
