A love letter...

 

Ruby,

I love how you constantly grunt while you nurse

I love how you always try to eat the washcloth whenever it goes anywhere near your mouth

I love how you try to drink the water when I am pouring it on your hair

I love the satisfied look you have when I am finished nursing you

I love your whale talk

I love your big gummy smiles

 

I love it when you just stare into my eyes

I love how you kick your legs like crazy when your really excited

I love your thick soft black hair

I love that you look like your papa

I love how you put your head in the crook of my neck when your tired

I love that I get to be home with you and watch you grow

Nothing is better than this.

Look-a-like

I think it is safe to say Ruby looks like her papa.

Ruby speaks whale!

6 weeks!

Ruby can speak whale!  The first time she did it was 4 days ago with her papa.  He was talking to her and then out of nowhere she spoke back.  It was so sweet.
p.s. I caught her sucking her thumb today!

6 weeks, being sick and gross weather

The little girlie and I have been held up in our house with some sort of sickness.  I thankfully am feeling a little better today!  All thanks to taking tons of vitamin C, works every time!  Ruby seems to still be feeling a little under the weather.  She is really clingy and wants to nurse a lot.  I think she might also be growing!  She is six weeks old today, I can't believe it.  

The weather has been anything but pleasant.  Eighty-five mile an hour wind gusts and negative temperatures with the wind chill.  The only good thing to come of this weather is a clear sky and sunshine to be enjoyed behind the windows in our living room.  Also the clear sky provides beautiful sunsets...
