Ruby's Pimp Crib

We stayed home this weekend. It was so nice, other than Ruby's very awful cold. It was nice to see the rain and lounge around together. My parents, sister and friend came for a visit. That was nice too.
Ruby's delicious crib was delivered too. Its the most gorgeous crib ever. I always thought the bedding made the crib....not this one! All she is wearing is an organic sheet. I may toss a handmade doll and a cozy blanket in there but otherwise, she's done! Oh and that super cool flat screen looking tv thing, thats this sweet target find! Its made by lamaze, you can attach your ipod for music and there are cute little nature pictures it scrolls through. Baby products.........theres lots of money to be made there.

Good Shit....

This is really amazing.....life should be filled with colorful plastic pieces. Brilliant!!

Roo Roo

She turned 7 months yesterday!! She got two teeth last week. She says Mama and Dada and sits all on her own. When Ruby is excited, she kicks her legs, squeeks, grabs and scratches! She's so mellow and can be pretty intense. She's always known how to tell us what she doesn't like. She still likes her feet bare. We'll see what happens when the winter comes.
I have so much to say about my little one. I just don't know how to put my beating heart into words. I've always told Ava that she taught me how to be a mommy, Ruby has taught me how enjoy every little moment of it. I love my girls......I love'em!

Bye Bye Summer

We had a good one. It was our first summer with out two girls. We did a little bit of traveling, a few beach trips, and lots of nesting in our home. We didn't make it camping, maybe next summer. At the end of summer, Ruby turned six months and Ava turned four. I never like the growing up part. I feel like Ava was a baby last week. Ava was a month short of turning three here. She tells me she wants to be an "actress". She does love the camera!

They're Candy

They are bright, colorful and yummy. Ruby is very lucky that Ava is her big sister. I've never seen a bigger fan.

New Doo

I saw this haircut a year ago in an anthropologie catalog. I didn't have a good hair stylist and she couldn't imagine leaving the front pieces a good six inches longer than the back. I finally found someone who can see outside of the box. I like it.

Butterfly

It was graduation day for the four year olds. Next year, Ava will be graduating. I can't believe how fast the years have flown by. Babies just aren't babies long enough.
