Miss Ruby in her Pink Business Suit
Miss Ruby would like to know if anyone is interested in buying some pretty red lipstick or a new eyeshadow. She's working very hard towards getting her very own pink Cadillac.
My Two Moms
This is Mother Martha. She's been my second mother since a summer vacation at the Jersey shore when I was about fifteen. Mother Martha and Gigi came to visit for a few days, mostly to spend time with Ruby, but also to see David and me. Mother Martha celebrated her birthday while she was here. As you can see, she LOVES having her photo taken.
We ate delicious food, went shopping, stayed up late, and learned new vocab words from David.
Ruby and I were very spoiled during their stay. Here is Ruby modeling her new sleep sack and awesome hat. Thanks MOMS for a lovely week. We love you both.

I have officially been replaced
In a surprising coup, Stanley has declared himself to be Ruby and Emilia's father and husband, respectively.

If you need to contact me, I'll be in the dog crate.

Ruby's First Roadtrip
I woke up on Monday morning, exhausted after a tough night with Ruby. She was up and down all night long, wanting to feed and not wanting to sleep more than about an hour at a time. I called my mom to whine and she suggested we come to Houston for a few days. After running the idea by David, I packed up the car and headed to my parents' house. David was so nice to let me go and get some rest, I'm sure the house was lonely without his wife and baby girl around in the evenings.
Ruby and I had a great time. I got TONS of sleep thanks to Gigi a.k.a The Baby Whisperer. She can make Ruby sleep like no one else. The timing of our trip was perfect because my dad had off Monday and Tuesday. He got to spend some quality time with both his baby and his baby's baby.
When Ruby and I loaded up the car to come home last night, we had a cooler full of food, all clean clothes, a spotless car, and a case of diapers. We should make roadtrips to Houston a regular thing :)
