Double Digits! A Decade!!!

I can't believe my baby girl is 10 today. At least I think she is mine. I did give birth to her, but she sure looks a lot like my little sister. I just found this picture of my sister Rhonda, and Shelby. I love it!!









Ten years ago I gave birth to this girl after 3 hours of labor and 2 pushes. The last ten years with her has been just as easy and pleasant. She is 5 in this picture.




She had a sleepover with two of her friends last weekend because her and her friend have the same birthday. So we have to coordinate parties.
You have got to love a ten year old girl!













Shelby does not enjoy a good chocolate cake like her mother. She decided on doughnuts and ice cream instead. So this was her version of a birthday cake this year.








The top 10 reason why you can't help but love Shelby Ella Bashaw!!!

#10- She is the best babysitter for her little brother and sister. (she doesn't charge a lot either)

#9- She can burp and fart with the best of them.

#8- She loves her friends, and always needs to be with one of them.
