Merry Christmas from Ruby the Elf

Another Ruby Conversation

I need to think of a catchier name for posts about these little conversations with Ruby. Here's one from last night, as we were reading books in bed.

Me (reading from a book): "Momma Bear cooks food for lunch."

R: Momma, YOU like to cook.

Me: Yes I do, Ruby. Do YOU like to cook?

R: Yes. Does Dada like to cook?

Me: No, not really.

R: Yeah, Dada likes to lay down.

Such a smart girl! David actually does a lot to help around the house, but had some back pain last night and was lying down after dinner.

To Brighten Your Day

Warning: A Post about Poop

I have a rule that I don't post about poop on the blog too often. I consider this blog a diary of sorts, but I would hate for Ruby to be embarrassed by it someday. Today's conversation, however, is just too cute not to share.

Me: Ruby, did you poop?

R: No.

Me: I think you did, Rubina. I can smell it from across the room.

R: It is POTENT, Momma.

Not only did my two year old use the word "potent," but she used it correctly. I'm impressed.

Fun with Photobooth

Ruby is really into the Photobooth program on the computer. I have to admit, it cracks me up too.
