HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY SHELBYANNE!!

She had a great party today. She said afterwards how glad she was that her friends and family came and how much she loved all her presents. The funniest was the microphone that her Aunt Shirly and Uncle Bob gave her because it copies what she says. She came alive tonight while she was singing with it. Check out the video below of her playing with it.

Shelbyanne has been in her preschool class for 2 months now. She loves her teacher Ms. Sherik, and all her new friends. She is enjoying her time with our Alabama family, and is looking forward to seeing our family in Florida. She mentioned that she is looking forward to going fishing at Meme and Granddaddy's house. She loves to draw pictures especially buses and rainbows.

Shelbyanne is a character. She loves to be silly and make people laugh. She is the funniest when she is trying to get her brother Donovan to smile and laugh. She had to say goodbye for now to all the friends she made in Missouri. She handled it well for a 4 year old. She has mentioned missing people since we left, but is adjusting well to her new school, church and the friends she is meeting.

This was her and Emily's first day at their new school.

Shelbyanne has been doing great. She has been growing so much. I had a dream the other night that she was riding roller blades down the street. We're definitely not there yet, but she is starting to show us that she can be trusted to obey the boundaries we have set for her while she is playing outside without Mommy or Daddy there. She loves to be outside playing with friends or finding new bug friends. She is not afriad of any living creature. She caught a lizard and carried it around the whole time she was playing outside. Mommy didn't even want to touch it.

We went to lunch at some friends from church's house, and Shelbyanne got to go to their farm with Daddy. She had a blast. She saw a calf that had been born that day, made new friends, rode a 4-wheeler, played by the pond, was able to pet some goats, and had beef jerky and coke. The coke she didn't like. She called it spicy. While she and Daddy were out playing Mommy and Emily were taking a nap and hanging out back at the house. Overall it was an excellent day.

Shelbyanne is such a good big sister. Emily and Shelbyanne were tired after dinner so they rested on the couch together while they watched Dora.

Shelbyanne had a blast fishing with Daddy. She caught a fish, but was not interested in holding it, so Daddy didn't get a picture of her fish. Maybe next time.

Mommy and Daddy were invited to a tea party with Shelbyanne's class last Friday. We had a great time making treats and eating them. Shelyanne wore the dress her Nana bought her for Easter. We had a great time.

Shelbyanne had a great time at Emily's Birthday party. She loves to play on the gymnastics equipment. She is growing like a weed. She loves to pretend to be characters she sees on the shows we watch. She loves the Disney princesses and Little Bo Peep from our Cedarmont Kids videos.

Here are a few photos of what her lately.

Shelbyanne loves to play with her friends. Today she invited her friend Dereck over on the walk home from class. They had fun together, although he really wanted to play with boy toys, and we had limited number of those. They had a good time anyways.

Shelbyanne was standing on a ledge at HaHa Tonka. Here she was reflecting on the beautiful view. Not really. She was posing for mommy to take her picture. She is a cutie though!

Shelbyanne is doing great. She is enjoying her classes and exploring the campus with Daddy & Emily. Here are some pictures of things she has been doing lately.

Just Hanging Out!

Sleeping Beauty!

Here she is multitasking. She is pretending to talk on the phone while cleaning up the paper she had been cutting.

This was a beautiful fall day.

New Beginnings

Shelbyanne has had a great start here in Missouri. She loves being outside, playing on the playground or in the nearest patch of dirt she can find. She is the youngest in her preschool class. She loves being in class and has made some new friends.

Here are a few pictures of what she has been up to lately. Enjoy!

HAPPY 3rd BIRTHDAY SHELBYANNE

On her 3rd birthday we let her pick out her clothes for the day. She chose the pink princess dress she got from her cousins. She wore it all day...even for her birthday dinner. It was fun!
She opened her presents first thing in the morning. Then we had a fun day out and about.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR HER GIFTS. SORRY FOR NOT GETTING PROPER THANK YOU NOTES OUT HIS YEAR. SHE LOVES EVERYTHING SHE GOT.

Playing with the water table we bought for her with her birthday money.

Cutting with her scissors. I love watching her stick out her tongue while cutting.
She and Mommy were able to ride on a new NTM plane called the Kodiak a few weeks ago. Here we are getting instructions for the 30 minute flight. We had a blast.
Shelbyanne is fixing the hair of Valdecio, one of our e-linc (discipleship) advisors.
She loves playing on the swingset next to our house. The weather has beenreally nice lately.
Here shelbyanne is getting the exprience of meeting a tribal man at NTM's Kodiak event. It was actually one of the missionaries who had planted a church in a tribe. He had dressed as a tribal man would and gave people in the community the chance to experience being in a tribe. Shelbyanne had a cold, so Emily was taking care of her while she talked on the phone to Nana.
Cool hats!
Shelbyanne is getting into dressing up and playing. She especially loves to wear the "pink princess" dress, as she calls it, that her cousins gave to her for her birthday.

Shelbyanne has been having many wonderful adventures this summer. She has done so well with all the traveling that we have been doing. She has played with friends that she hasn't seen in a while and made some new friends. Here are a few pictures of those adventures and friends.

Here is Shelbyanne with one of her many lizard friends she has met this summer.

Uncle Reed brought over this neat little 4 wheeler for her. She had a ball riding around on it. Her face just beamed everytime she rode it.

Shelbyanne loves hanging out with and helping her newest cousin, Baby Trystan.

On our way from Florida to Alabama we went to visit some friends near Atlanta. While we were there we were able to go pick blueberries. We had a blast.

Shelbyanne with a statue of a cow at the Chick-Fil-A headquarters near Atlanta.

Here she is playing with Abby Wozniak in the "ball room", as Abby calls it.

Shelbyanne has such a kind heart. She loves to hug statues that are her size. You can see the compassion on her face that she has for this man...or maybe it is the fact that she did not get to take a nap this day.

We made it to Daphne, AL. Here is Shelbyanne's Nana putting on her shoes so we could go visit family for the evening.

What's new...

Shelbyanne has made a major breakthrough this summer. She has been pretty hesitant to get in the pool since she realized that she could choose whether or not she wanted to get in. She definitely took her time getting used to the water as you can see in the pictures. Now she wants to go swimming everyday, and she puts on her water wings right away and dog paddle al around the pool. Check out the video of her swimming that follows the pictures.

Shelbyanne loves riding the penny horses at the store.
