MILESTONES
  • Ruby moved up to the "2's" class at school and will move up to the older nursery at church this week
  • Ruby has been sleeping in her new bed for 16 days
  • Ruby took TWO no-tears baths this week (this hasn't happened since she was probably 9 months old)
  • Ruby knows all the colors and can count from 1 to 10
  • Ruby knows all the main Sesame Street characters, but still calls Big Bird "Big Duck"
  • Ruby loves her new "I Have Feelings" book that talks about different emotions. Ruby loves to make faces for each one - silly, scared, happy, sad, excited, angry, and proud. It is adorable; I must get pictures!

FUN(NY) PHRASES (my recent favorites)
  • Every time we leave Grammie & Papa's house she waves and says, "Lotsa fun!"
  • Ruby likes us to ask if her food is hot. We'll ask, "Is it hot?" and she says, "No, [it's] yummy!"
  • Ruby was watching Kung Fu Panda the other week and she exclaimed, "I like Kung Fuuuu!"
  • Ruby is really into scary things right now. She likes to say, "Scary monsters coming out!" and "Mommy/Daddy scared!" Ruby's not scared of anything!
  • I turned on the TV one night and ESPN was on. Ruby saw it for a couple seconds and said, "No like football!"
