Ruby's First Month

Ruby is 1 month old! woohoo! 

Time flies just as fast, if not faster with the second.

At 1 month Ruby is suprisingly social in that she has already given us a few smiles (non-gas related) and she is pretty decent at making eye contact! (Well, her pediatrician thought it was impressive)

I forgot to write down her weight and length, but she has grown sufficiently! I do remember that she was about 50% for weight and 70ish% for height, so another little string bean in the makings!

Life with two has been a bit of an adjustment. Most days are spent in our pjs, and watching more TV than is probably healthy. We are working on that. 

Life his been a little more hectic because we are preparing to move to UTAH soon (and there is still Christmas to celebrate as well)! That means having the house kept clean and tidy and being ready to go out the door with short notice for showings, not an easy feat. Fortunately we have several awesome friends that have let us come play when this happens.

Afton is still a pretty awesome sister. If anything she can be accuse of loving too hard.

She mostly calls Ruby "baby" at this point. Probably because I refer to her as "baby Ruby" when I am talking to Afton. 

Afton love giving Ruby hugs and kisses, and still informs me whenever Ruby is sad, or crying, or burps. Burps = sneeze, toots, and burps.

My last post had me looking all cute and glamorous for family photos. Here is the more realistic me for this first month. :)

Don't worry, I am not as depressed as I look in this photo. I was just trying to show Brad how my day was going, so I was being a little dramatic. The hair is legit though :)

AND a few fuzzy glimpses of some smiles from Ruby. They are pretty rare, but oh so sweet!

So that's Ruby's first month. 

It's been a happy flurry of moving prep, holidays, and newborn snuggles.
