DJ Kim

Everyone that knows Kim and I, knows that we tease each other alot. It doesn't stop, even when no one else is there to laugh. I don't know if anyone else will think this is funny, but if I know Kelsey, I ought to get a couple of minutes out of her. For everyone else, if you don't find it funny, you only wasted two minutes of your life.

Tonight, I was holding Shelby and she was fussing so I started beat boxing (Not great but at least in rhythm) and making Shelby dance/jump to the beat. She thought it was hilarious. Once again Shelby outlasted me and I passed her off to Kim to entertain for a little while. She started fussing again and so I told Kim to beat box. She adamantly refused because her rhythm is as white as her legs are and she knows it. I kept teasing her and telling her to do it, but she wouldn't. After a little pause she said "I'm beat boxing in my head and it is terrible". Even while writing this, I haven't stopped laughing completely, and Kim hasn't either. It is pretty said when you can't even imagine yourself with rhythm.

Classic Kim moment. I love those.

For Sale

Here are the pictures of our house from our listing. I know some of you never got to see it. We have already had our first showing and we are hoping for more now that the pictures are up today. We are keeping our fingers crossed. Ross has decided that when we get in the next house we are going to immediately list it on the market so that the house will stay clean. Hahahahaha....!

Happy Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday to Shelby's Aunt Sarah! Here is a picture I stole from Aunt Sarah's blog. This is Sarah with her nephew, Luke. We hope you have a wonderful day!

Laughter, The Best Medicine

Hello all. It has been a long time since I have done any blogging. I do get hired out whenever we have to put up a video. Kim and Shelby decided to put on a show this evening. Shelby was in a really good mood while in her jumperoo this evening and all it took was a little peak-a-boo to put her over the top. Shelby somehow still finds ways to melt our hearts on a daily basis.

Gig'em

Okay, so this post does not seem very "Aggie like" so I had to title it Gig'em.

No this is not Bevo this is Jake and he belongs to Shelby's Great Grandpa Leyendecker. Shelby did not seem to mind riding Jake. When Grandpa Leyendecker put Shelby on Jake's back Jake started to walk sideways and it did not phase her. Ross ran around the other side to make him stop. Jake is ride able if anybody is interested!!!

This picture was taken at a family reunion. It was a typical family reunion in that I did not know 95% of the people there. We spent most of the evening talking to Bobby and Rosanne Schmidt. Bobby is my father's cousin but he grew up with Ross' family in Lyford. His wife also grew up in the valley and knew Ross' family. It is a small world. The Schmidts' said to tell everyone in the valley hello!!!

This is right after Jake was walking sideways. Do you see the concern in my eyes???

Here is Shelby's closeup.

She's Still Here

I have not blogged about Shelby or put any pictures up lately so I will give you an update. The last week she has started doing some new things. She now loves to eat her toes. Yummy!!!! She sucks on her toes so hard that she slurps. She will be nursing and stop to suck on her toes and then start nursing again. Also, she has been talking lately. Babababa....that's what she says. She has also started to feed herself baby puff cereal. It melts in their mouth but she gums it to mush. This is nice because we can put her in her highchair and we can actually eat dinner together in peace. Baby food and warm cereal is still a huge struggle and most of the time it does not happen. She still has her rolls so I think she is getting what she needs! And the scariest of them all is that she has started to try and pull up on things. She is getting so big! Her "Chinese eyes" smile now includes her nose squenched up and her breathing thru her nose making a snorting like sound. It cracks us up.

In other news, the other house is a go so we are busily trying to get our house on the market. Looks like it will be on Thursday. It is bittersweet and I don't think our neighbors are too excited about it. They are all worried about who will be moving in. I'll post the pictures of the listing when we get them. I know not everyone that checks the blog got to see our first house.

Ross is still really busy at work and is still doing lots of hog hunting. I can't remember if it was 6 or 7 that they killed this weekend. They butchered them and Ross gave some of them to guys at work. We are hoping to get some homemade tamales!

Here is her new snorting smile/laugh. This does not do it justice. I will have to get video.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to Shelby's Great Grandma Muske (GG)!!!!
