Shelby celebrated her 3 week birthday yesterday...I'd say she didn't realize it, but it seems as though she knows she's getting bigger and is demanding lots of food a lot more often! ha! She must be going through a growth spurt because instead of eating every 3 hours, she'd be a lot happier to eat about every 2 hours. Problem is she won't eat as much every 2 hours so we're really working on holding her off to every 3 hours. That being said, she's still waiting longer to eat in the middle of the night which is perfectly fine with us. For the past week she has been going to bed sometime between 8 and 9 pm and getting up around 2:00 am and 5:00 am to eat. That works for me because honestly it only feels like you have to get up once in the middle of the night to feed her. Sleep deprivation isn't near as bad as it was with Peyton...of course we've had my parents here for the last few days and we haven't had to get up for those feedings!! hahaha! It's been really nice having help the last 3 weeks and we definitely feel ready to take over. Peyton and I have been fighting a horrible cold for the last week so any help we can get we gladly take. I'm finally feeling human again and Peyton is very slowly but surely getting over his. It hasn't slowed him down at all though. On Thursday Peyton participated in a trike-a-thon at his preschool. They rode to raise money for St. Jude and he did an awesome job. Not sure he really understood what he was riding for, but he though it was REALLY cool he got to take his trike to school. ha! Today we hope to get him outside more since the weather is FINALLY sunny and a warm 66 degrees. Spring is finally around the corner...I hope.
Riding is serious business
Peyton got a new Spiderman helmet just for the trike-a-thon...if you don't already know, Peyton is obsessed with super heros right now.
Trying to keep up with the bigger bikes...we tried getting him a new bike...he's perfectly happy with his trike right now.
Getting ready to take off
He was so excited!
