Baby Prodigy

Dylan's eyes following mommy.

Okay, so maybe not quite a prodigy yet, but I think she's pretty smart. You have to admit though, she is very alert.

Pregnancy...the new trend.

From Right to Left:
Courtney Lynn Shelby, 9 months (Dylan)
Heather Lynn Lucas, 6 months (Annabelle)
Meredith Lynn Hawkins, 5 months (Evelyn)
Whitney Lynn Holley, 1 month (Baby unknown. Could it be another girl??)

I never would have thought we'd all be prego at the same time. What a crazy 2010 it will be!

(my mom stole this pic and posted it on Facebook already, so you might have already seen it)

Dylan Anna Shelby

Our little girl has arrived!! Dylan Anna was born on March 18th at 8:57pm. She was 6lbs, 6oz and 21 inches long. She has completely turned our world upside down and we couldn't be happier. I feel so blessed to have this opportunity to be a Mom and Dylan is so lucky to have such an amazing daddy. She is already daddy's little girl and Matt can't get enough of her. Dylan is a tiny little thing wearing the New Born size (too small for 0-3months). Though her clothes fit her length wise, the width is still a bit big. All her headbands and hats are way too big on her and her socks don't even stick to her calves. It's amazingly cute. Dark little hair fills her entire body still including a thick little patch right above her tiny butt crack. lol! :-) (don't tell her I told you that) It's hilarious! Matt was able to take the week off of work so we've just been relaxing and soaking it all in. I swear I can already see her getting bigger each day. :( I guess she could use a little meat on her... Anywho, here are some photos from her first week with us. (today is her one week birthday, so feel free to give her a call)


We would also like to thank all our friends and family that have been so supportive to us this past week. Dylan is so lucky to have all of you!

Court's Tumblr

I started a new blog on Tumblr. It's a little different than our Blogger. The Blogger is going to be more about the Shelby family and the Tumblr is more for me....not that I need a new addiction or anything, and I know you guys aren't really obsessed with my life (though i understand if you are... it's a curse). Tumblr is more "micro" bloggin where I'll post random pics, thoughts, videos, etc... Nothing too long. Kind of like the Twitter of Facebook. If you want to check it out here is the link:

www.shelbster.tumblr.com

Notice the shelbster is singular and without the "the." I'm not exactly sure what direction I'm going to go with tumblr, so for now I'm going to say it's completely random.

kpeacebye!!

34 down... 6 to go...

Sorry for the lack of posts, but I really haven't been taking many pictures lately. I don't have any cute kids to brag about yet other than the angelic looking baby in my tummy... which you can't see yet (she's pretty much perfect looking, I can already tell from the ultrasound). Instead you get a very round 27 year old lady. Not much of a photo op if you ask me. But i'll give you a pic anyway. Matt told me to stand up straight with good posture, so that's what you get. :)


Look how awesome my older sister is. She saw my post on facebook about showing concern for pregnant ladies by bringing them a cake or doughnuts and look what she brought over! Big box of doughnuts. She's the best! Thanks Whit!



Other updates:
No name yet.
Feeling pretty good, except my insides feel smooshed.
Matt's been great!
2 out of my 3 sister's are pregnant also. (one girl, and one unknown)
Sleeping is... fun.... yeah, it sucks.
Nursery has crib, changing table/dresser, paint.
Nursery needs blinds, wall decor, rocker, and baby.
Our brilliant baby used morse code to say Go Zags! the other night. (lots of kicking)

Happy Anniversary To Us!

I can't believe it's been 3 years already! Time really does fly. I have to say, getting married to Matt in the Temple is the best decision I've ever made. Right person...right place! I can barely remember a time before I was married. We have so much fun together...whether we're at home watching tv or performing in a circus (hasn't happened yet, but I'm sure we'd have fun). So here's to us and many more years to come.... and I mean many....eternity is quite a while. sheez. Happy 3 years!!


You would think after 3 years we would have a normal picture to post. I'm starting to think we aren't capable of normal pics. So here ya go. :)



LOL! Ha.... I think I'm so funny. Love you tea cup! (don't anyone try to steal our term of endearment. strictly ours.)

Have a wonderful Christmas!

Matt, Courtney, & Baby Shelby

(By the way, this is our Christmas Card this year... not that we've ever sent out a Christmas card... but I think this is a good step. One day...)
