I just don't think it's possible for us to love little Ruby any more. She is such a delight and a joy to our family. She has such a fun, sweet personality that we can't get enough of. Her brothers adore her and she adores them. Her first year of life was so wonderful and we're excited to see what this next year brings!
*For my records
At one year old Ruby...
- weighs 18 pounds
- sleeps 11-12 hours at night
- naps twice a day for 1.5-2 hours each
- eats 3 meals a day plus snacks (will eat pretty much anything i give her!)
- nurses 4-5 times a day
- drinks water from a straw cup- never would take a bottle or a sippy cup
- scoots on her bottom instead of crawling (doc said not to worry)
- is starting to pull up on furniture
- wants to play outside all the time (which is nice since that is what we typically do!)
- loves to look at pictures of people she knows and say "who's that?" in a really high pitched voice
- points to the correct person in a picture when i ask (ex: where's daddy?)
- nods her head yes and shakes her head no when i ask her a yes/no question
- will hold up one finger when asked how old she is
- gets so excited about bath time
- says the words: bath, ball, who's that, what's that, pops, mama, dada, mum mum, yeah, mmm (when she smells food), light, dog, moo, roar, poo poo (thanks to older brothers), & baby.
- points to belly, toes, & nose when we ask her where they are
- loves her baby dolls and pats their backs
- is loud!
- gets so excited when daddy comes home from work
- gives the best kisses
- claps and dances when she hears music
- loves her cradle roll class that her daddy & mommy teach :)
- takes her hair bows out as soon as I put them on her
- puts every little thing in her mouth, then takes it out of her mouth and hands it to me
- is the sweetest, most adorable baby girl!!!
