A little late...

I have seen many people do little tributes to their kids on their birthday's on their blogs. I want to start doing that. I was going to to do one for Shelby's Birthday, which was October 3rd. But her Birthday became a little complicated. But absolutely wonderful at the same time. I just didn't have the time to post about her at the time. So now, here it goes.

A few things about Shelby Lois.

* Her favorite color has always been pink, but I think it is changing to purple.

* She is OBSESSED with The Little Mermaid. And she has only seen the movie once!

* She loves to clean. I love that!

* She is a pushover for her brother. If there is ever anything that he wants, and she has it, she always gives it to him. He totally takes advantage of it. He knows all he has to do is say her name in a sweet helpless way. It's quite funny.

* She refers to Luke as her best friend. She always introduces him to people at stores or wherever we go. She is quite social.

* She is also the most stubborn person I have ever known. Some days I am not sure who's will is stronger, hers or mine.

* Shelby will eat anything! It is great. No matter what I make, she eats at least one plate full. Her absolute favorite food though, is meat. She can't get enough of it. She will even eat tuna right out of the can, before mayo is added or anything(YUCK!!). She even loves mushrooms!!

* Shelby is the girliest of girls. She only wants to wear dresses. She is always playing a damsel in distress. Which works great because Luke is always running around as some super hero, looking for "lives that need savin' ", to quote Luke.

* My favorite thing about Shelby, is how much she loves her Daddy. She hugs him like no one else. She loves to dance with him and is always asking him to do so. And recently she has started telling me that when she grows big like me, she is going to marry her Daddy at the temple. It is so cute. She gets very sad when I tell her that she can't. Poor thing. I'm sure she will get over it some day.

Well, that is my Shelby in a nutshell. I love her so very much. I am enjoying watching her grow, and look forward to watching her continue to learn and grow. But I really wish she would slow down a bit. I can't even guess how many times that wish has been wished throughout time.

Here is a little video I took of Shelby last week. She was playing dress up and just having fun. Sorry it is sideways.
