They say, "The fruit does not fall far from the tree." Well if that is true, I am going to be as sweet as apple-pecan pie because some of the fruits of my family tree are real shinny apples, and some are just plain nuts!

Captains log - Baby Date 8.14.06 roughly 36 weeks into my mission... Mom's belly - the final frontier - these are voyages of the baby John David Shelton - my nine month mission - to seek out new and interesting ways to make Mommy stay awake at night. I am currently in a tight orbit around Mommy's belly. Tonight she cooked a great big meal for all three of us! I know it was good because she said Dad ate a lot. I guess Mom cooks great every night... Well I just wanted to say hi to everyone that saw the website and keep those e-mails coming. I wanted to give a shout out to Aunt Karen and Aunt Claudia and Cousin Kim. Hello also to Aunt Maggie's Buddies Lisa and Tammy - get well Tammy. I also wanted to say hi to Dr. Bridges and Mrs. Shelia. Everybody take care! Check Back tomorrow for more pictures and updates.

To: J.D. Subj: Mission. First mission is to learn to swing a bat ....then catch a ball ...and since you will be a Kentuckian ...then learn to shoot another bigger ball through a hoop....First words ...Go Big Blue ....Followed by ....Let's Go Cardinals ....
Dad and Mom agree. I am still waiting on pictures for Mommy's Aunt Claudia and Cousin Kim! Mommy and Daddy says "Hi" to everyone! About 23 days until the "Big Move" I think Mom is ready for some reason. Bye Bye, John David

8/17/06 - 21 Days to estimated Launch... Hi everybody! Miss Mathis, thank you for the e-mail - I think Mommy is terrific too. Can I put your picture on here too? I like pictures of Mommy's friends. Thanks Granny for the pictures of Uncle Butch at Busch Stadium. I have put them below. Here is what my Pa Shelton wrote me:
To: John David
Fr: Pa
Subject: First Things to do
As soon as possible, go to Dad's tool cabinet and get a shiny tool and go play in the yard. When through playing, just leave it there. Dad will be very understanding about how busy you are and did not have time to return the tool to the cabinet.
Love Pa
Daddy said, “Using tools is an Adult Function” and that his tools will be locked up until I show enough responsibility by buying my own and then he says I won’t need to use his tools because I will have my own. Pa, can I use your tools? Daddy isn't fun sometimes is he?
Miss Tammy sent us a cool web site link: http://www.TheDashMovie.com I think everybody should "dash" over there and check it out. God is great, God is good, let’s eat. Bye Bye  John David

08-20-2006 Hi everybody and happy Sunday! I am so excited! Mommy and Daddy are going to the Hospital today for a six hour class on me! I just wanted to thank everybody for the wonderful clothes and toys! I feel so special already. Here is an e-mail from Aunt Claudia and Cousin Kim.... From: Aunt Claudia To: J.D. Subject: Pictures of Aunt Claudia and Cousin Kim Hello J. D. Can't wait till you've made the "Big Move". We are all so anxious to get to hold you and give you lots of hugs and kisses. I will try to get those pictures out tonight. Love, Aunt Claudia Here is an e-mail from Pa Shelton: JD you can use my tools when you are at my house. We will go get you a set of tools so that maybe you and a friend can build a space ship at your house someday. Love Pa Daddy said he was bad about using Pa's tools and not putting them back where they belong... Bad Daddy... Bad Daddy. Mommy is so tired this morning. She is having trouble getting comfortable at night. I guess there is not enough room for the two of us. Sorry Mommy, I'll be out soon. Well that is all right now except sports: Uncle Butch, can you call Tony LaRussa and give him some advice? Way to go Marshall Co. Football 54 to 26 against Davies County! Next week Mayfield...

8/22/06 16 Days to launch... Hello again  . Not much happening today. Hi Mrs. Mohler and everybody at the Bank of Benton. The Money Monster scares me. Mommy says its a friendly monster, but it sure looks scary to me. Hi Cousin Marshall at University of Louisville. Hope all is well up there. Everybody have a great day! John David

8/23/06 15 days to launch! Mommy and Daddy are very excited now. Mommy just had another check up and all is well.
Aunt Sherri sent these little nuggets of thought for me to try from a chain e-mail...
1.) A king size water bed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep. 2.) If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite. 3.) A 3-year old Boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant. 4.) If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound Boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room. 5.) You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way. 6.) The glass in windows (even ! double- pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan. 7.) When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's already too late. 8.) Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it. 9.) A six-year old Boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year old Man says they can only do it in the movies. 10.) Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4- year old Boy. 11.) Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence. 12.) Super glue is forever. 13.) No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water. 14.) Pool filters do not like Jell-O. 15.) VCR's do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do. 16.) Garbage bags do not make good parachutes. 17.) Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving. 18.) You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is. 19.) Always look in the oven before e you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens. 20.) The fire department in Austin , TX has a 5-minute response time. 21.) The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy. 22.) It will, however, make cats dizzy. 23.) Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy. 24.) 80% of Women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without kids. 25.) 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid. Thanks Aunt Sherri, I will have to try each one at your house when I visit cause Daddy said you were going to be a lot of fun.....
John David
