Shelby is sick :(

I took Shelby Welby in to the Doctor today and found that she has an ear infection. My poor baby :( That explains the rough nights we've been having. Here is a picture of her when she was actually SLEEPING, she always has her arms up by her head like this. So cute!!

She weighed in at 15 pds 8 ounces today.

All three of the girls are sick. It's been a rough couple of days around here. The other day Lexi said to Mike "Dad, remember when I was two or three and you asked if I wanted a blessing and I said no?" Lexi then said "maybe you could give me a blessing now". So precious!! So of course Mike gave her a blessing and Kamree too. Lexi looked over to Kamree and said "it's like when we were babies and dad gave us a blessing". She was so sure and proud of it.

The girls have been feeling MUCH better and Kam's fever is gone. Now we're just dealing with the coughs. But Lexi is amazing at coughing in her elbow, thanks to a lesson on germs in pre-school. And Kam is real good about coughing into her hand. I just keep reminding them not to touch Shelbs face and to wash our hands often (of course they love this part b/c it means time to play in water!).

Shelby at 6 months old

Shelby is 6 months!!! I seriously don't know where the time has gone. It seems like she joined our family just days ago...but I have honestly lived day to day....hoping each one would come faster so she'd get out of this 'crabby' stage. Well 6 months later she's still a fussy, crabby, cranky baby. But she has gotten better, and so have we.

The girls love her soo much. She loves to be entertained and can now sit up for a little bit, so Kam really gets a kick out of that.

Shelby loves attention and has the cutest smile, when she's not crying. She loves to grab her foot and stuff it clear in her mouth. Kind of a pain while trying to change her bum :)
************************************************************

Amber and Kelly came this weekend! We had soo much fun and it was great to see Mckoy! He is the cutest baby, we couldn't get enough of him. We played the Wii ALL weekend long and we're up late everynight. We had to make the most of our time together. We also had a fun little Valentine Dinner by candlelight. After weekends like this I wish we could see them alot more often. It was a great weekend...Thank you guys for coming! :)

Kelsie and Joe also came out for dinner and some Wii time on Sunday. It was fun to have them over to hang out...come out more often!!

Last snow on the block!!

So ever since Mike made snowmen with the girls...it's been this contest to see how long our snow would last. All he wanted was to still have snow in our yard after the rest of the street had melted. Well, today Mike's wish came true! :) It was so warm and sunny and hit everywhere....except for this little piece on our front yard. So here is all that is left from our snowman. Now that he won....bring on the sunshine and SpRiNg!!!!! :)

my friend "Nose Sucker"

This is "Nose Sucker". I can't get Kamree to BLOW her nose. When I say "blow" she sucks it back up. It is SOO frustrating b/c I can't get the snot out. So after days and days of runny noses...I thought of "Nose Sucker". I did it yesterday, and have been using it as a threat ever since.
Just now I said "Kam your nose is bad, do you want me to wipe it?"
She said yes, but I couldn't get her to blow it. "I can't do it mommy" she said. So I said "you want me to get the sucker?"
she said "No mommy I dont wan it!"
I then went to get "Nose Sucker" and she was crying. But then I did it and she smiled, "It feels better mommy! Do this side."
And that my friends is the power of the "Nose Sucker"! :)
