Twenty three months

Sneak Peek

We had a super cold, super early morning birthday photoshoot with Brandy of Brandy Leigh Photography this morning. We were there to celebrate Ruby's second birthday AND Brandy's one year anniversary of being a family photographer. Happy Birthday and Anniversary to two of my favorite girls. There's nothing like freezing your buns off to celebrate two important milestones.

Brandy perfectly captured Ruby and her fun-loving spirit. Thanks, B, for the gorgeous shots of my sweet toddler.

Weeeeee

CAAAAKE!

My friend, Cynthia, sent this to me today because it made her think of Ruby. Cynthia is right; Ruby looooves to eat cake. Just a warning that it's a little goofy and it contains the F word (gasp). But it's so "Ruby" that I couldn't resist posting it. Enjoy!

Introducing Santa

While shopping this weekend, Ruby noticed a picture of Santa and asked who he was. Not wanting to get into it at that moment, I told her that he was Santa and that she would learn all about him when she was a little older.

Today, Ruby asked "Who's Santa?" totally out of the blue. Not wanting to ignore her question a second time, I said that "he is a man who comes to our house during the holidays and bring us presents." Ruby nodded her head, paused a moment to process who this Santa fellow is, then said, "Oh, like Gigibaba?"

I don't know what's cuter: the fact that Gigi and Baba have a reputation already for bringing presents, or that she combines their names to make one word.

BBQ Anyone?
