17 and 18 months, finally

 Wow, this took me forever to get up here.  I find myself just wanting to nap or do things not involving the computer these days.  
Its hard to believe Ruby is already almost 19 months old and that we will have a newborn in just a few short months.  Sometimes I am stricken with the most nauseating anxiety at the thought of taking care of two little ones under two at the same time.  Luckily the few people I have talked to about it are pretty encouraging and spare me the terrible stories.  When I am not feeling nauseous at the thought of caring for two children I deal with sad thoughts of shorting Ruby on her one on one time with me.  Sometimes I wish we would have let her get a little older before becoming pregnant again, too late now.  I know we will all adjust perfectly and right after the baby is born it'll feel like the baby has always been here.  Its just hard to think like that right now.
Anyway, about Ruby getting older...
Her vocabulary has blossomed a lot, this little girl says so much now.
She is suffering from the terrible two's temper tantrums already.
She wants to do EVERYTHING by herself.
She recently go a pair of rain boots and she is completely obsessed. 
Another obsessed includes her old Fisher Price toys I finally took out for her to play with.
She is still a sleeping champ!
She has switched from being a total people charmer to being shy.
She likes sugar just as much as her papa and he always give into her.

Color Coodinated throughout the entire picture spread.
I enjoyed my summer and hanging out with everyone. Seeing Ruby every few months lets me see her growth a little more than daily visits do. As they say "you've come a long way baby"
You and Dan are doing a great job, and I am sure other than the normal adjustments for all they second addition will be more blessing than not.
Love you guys
