It has been such a long time since we have posted anything! Life just whizzes by. The milestones are further apart or actually just a lot closer together. If updated you every time Ruby learned another animal or body part. Each time she started using a new sign or understood another word I said (yes, Steve and I have to spell words like s-w-i-n-g, m-i-l-k, or g-o o-u-t-s-i-d-e :) ). We would be blogging constantly. This is such a fun age. My favorite part is watching her funny little personality come out. She will run across the living room swinging her arms in the air and talking to herself about who knows what. She still refuses to say mommy and rather than try, looks right in my eyes and says "Da-da" and then waits for the reaction. She listens to no and is quick to figure out the rules, but then when she does, she likes to pretend she is going to do that naughty thing and watch me - again, the girl loves a reaction. This week we finally let her open the barn and animals we gave her for her birthday. Saving some presents til later is genius! So each day we play farm. She likes to put the silo on top of the barn, apparently she is into skyscrapers. We keep talking about baby chicks in hopes that her next encounter with Grandma Judy's chicks goes a little better. She wasn't sure what to think of them the first time. Yesterday we went to visit a friend of ours who is on bedrest. Another friend was there with her 6 week old. Ruby really wanted me to be feeding the baby the bottle all the time... cause that's what you do with babies. She like playing with the baby's carseat, even when the baby wasn't in it. She pointed out the baby's toes and nose, and then quickly jabbed the baby in the eye - oops! Thank goodness Lainey's mama is laid back! Ruby doesn't have any experience being the older kiddo... something I expect will be happening more and more, as friends of ours have babies. Anyway, life is busy, but good. Here are some photos of Ruby in action, she surely doesn't sit still for a photo!

Life as we know it!
