Sporting her new shoes



No, her feet really aren't that big, but we had to try them on just to see how cute she'd look in her pink converse - compliments of Grandma and Grandpa Stewart. Jon has been talking about pink converse since before she was born, so he was more than a little excited about this gift. It will be awhile before she can actually wear them, but there is no doubt she'll have plenty to match those pink shoes once she can wear them. Yesterday I put her into something green and yellow and she didn't even look like herself without any pink on. Gotta love the girl stuff. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Stewart for the pink converse.

Bathtime for Shelby




Shelby apparently loves bathtime. Not only did she seem to enjoy getting into the water and being washed while mom and dad stressed out about not loosing hold of her, she had one of the best nights of sleep ever! Jon and I have decided that bathtime might need to happen frequently if this trend continues. However, based on our very limited parenting experience, there doesn't seem to be much of anything that stays predictable or routine at this point in time. But we'll give it a shot...just in case!

Date Night!



Jon and I managed to go out to dinner while Grandma and Grandpa Stewart babysat. After 3 weeks of doing nothing but taking care of Shelby, it was great to rejoin the real world...O.K., so we only rejoined for about 2 hours, but hey, I'm not complaining. I even had a glass of wine, the first since before Christmas. We enjoyed dinner at one of our favorite spots, The Los Altos Grill. Shelby was fast asleep when we got home, so we considered it a successful first outing for both us and Shelby!
