It's bout time I have you meet our new lil addition...
SHELBY NORA ROSS
Born: August 30
8 lbs 15 oz
21 1/2 inches
I seriously can't believe that this Tuesday she will be 1 month old...time flies by way too fast! Looking back on her birth day I was a wee timid to have a repeat c-section but can't believe how simple and fast the surgery/recovery have both been! I love the doctors/nurses/pediatrician we have and are sooo blessed to have her here with us happy as ever and healthy!
Shelby is thee sweetest baby ever! She hardly ever cries (even had to ask my mom and nurses if that was normal!) and has slept through the night since the day she was born! She has a bunch of dark hair and is tall with skinny long fingers and toes! She is feeding great and growing like a weed! Now comparisons to big brother Jett was 8 1/2 lbs...Shelby was 1/2 pound bigger...almost 9 lbs and she was a inch and 1/4 longer too! I gained a lot more with this babe :) Jett was a mover and groover in my belly (still is) and hence why he was probably breeched...Shelby on the other hand rarely moved, I couldn't feel her kicking till 22 weeks and then felt her move maybe only once or twice a day! Jett was constant kicking, would punch often and had hiccups all the time! Jett didn't have as much hair as her but yes, if you can believe it his was way dark and straight as well but by 1 turned bright blonde, thick, and very curly!! Jett's feet are his spitting images of his dad's...very, very wide and chunky short toes lol! Shelby's are identical to mine...super long and skinny...her toes (like mine) could pass for fingers haha!
We welcome her to into our family of four and are sooo excited to continue to watch her grow! And speaking of growth,
last but not least...Big Brother Jetters turns 2 1/2 year old today! YeAh!!!
