Well we finally made it! Shelby was born at 7:34 pm on December 23rd 2009. She weighed 7 lbs 4 oz and was 19 inches. She took her sweet time getting here, but we are so excited to have her. She is really well mannered and loves to spend time being held. The good news is that she is not a real crier (for now) and can sleep through anything.
We are so thrilled with our Christmas present of a brand new baby. We hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!
OH! She is precious! Congratulations you two. I was worried when we didn't hear anything Tuesday night. I would love to eventually hear all the details of this labor story. Hope momma is doing well, and congrats again.
Merry Christmas, Mel! Congrats! How are you doing? Why was Shelby in the NICU? Is everything OK? Are you home now? Did you end up having a C-section? Send me an email with an update when you have a minute. I am so happy you are a mom now and Isabella is so happy to have a soccer friend. Is it OK if we call her "Bill"?
That is one of the cutest babies I have EVER seen! I could just kiss those little cheeks! I am so happy for you guys Melanie, you will be a great mom! Congratulations, I'm so glad that she is here!
Such a cutie! What a wonderful (and exhausting) Christmas present. I can't wait to see more pics. I hope everyone is adjusting and recovering well! Congrats!!!
So glad she made it here! I don't know what it is but I swear babies just like taking their time getting here I think it is just too hard for them to leave the place they are coming from.. I know I would have a hard time leaving too.
She is beautiful! I have been thinking of you guys! GLad Shelby made it safe and sound! She seriously is so cute! She was worth the wait right?! Hope you guys get settled alright! Welcome little Shelby!
1 1/2 Lbs Turkey
2 pieces of Celery
1/2 C Craisins
1/4 C Mayonnaise
1/4 C Sour Cream
1/2 C Heavy Cream
1 T Curry powder
1 Tsp Sugar
1/2 Tsp Salt
1/2 Tsp Pepper
Cut up the turkey and the celery, add the craisins. In a seperate bowl, mix together the rest of the ingredients and pour over turkey mixture. Serve with rolls, in pitas, or just eat it out of the container!
With all the leftover turkey, this is a delicious way to eat it up. I LOVE curry and this salad is super good. For those who haven't tried curry, you should. Don't worry it is not spicy hot - it is just delicious. I made this recipe from a combination of other recipes and Kelly and I can polish this off in about 2-3 days.
