11 and then some

Little Miss is growing, growing, growing and becoming her own little person now! She sleeps through the night better than Dylan and is taking good naps, if we happen to be home for them. She loves to wave BYE BYE and gets mad if someone leaves and she doesn't get to. She's also very irritated with her head bands and more often than not, pulls them off the first chance she gets. What she doesn't know yet is her mama will always be more stubborn than she is, and I will not give up on the head bands until she can wear clips! Ruby can say Dada, Mama & UH-oh! She eats only big people food now, but still hasn't gained any weight. A few days after her 11 month mark, she was still at 15 pounds. (I'm trying not to worry about it.) The other day I discovered her hip bones. That was a first, my boys were so chubby, I never found a bone in their bodies! Ruby is almost always standing now with her music table, couches, mama's legs, whatever she can find. She also is a big helper at dinner time and loves to play in the lower cabinets while I cook. You know, right under foot!

Here's some photos of her taking off her bows & tutu. The tutu was a dress rehearsal for Halloween at Music Makers and it did not go over well!


Get me outta here!
Headband on...TAKE THE PICTURE already!
I'll show you, Mama!
On again,
but not for long!

Off again...take that Mama!

I can't wait til she's a teenager!

First of all, LOVE the hair! I wish I was a daring as you are. Looks great on you! Ruby is getting so big, well she may still be little but it was like you just had her. Hannah was also little. Only weighed 17 and half pounds at one and still at 2 weighs just a little over 25 pounds. She is tall though. She is already wearing 3T clothes but that is only because she is tall. She is still super skinny! Hannah was the same way with her headbands. She didn't have much hair and I tried and tried to get her to keep the headbands on. She wouldn't have it. She finally has a little bit of hair for me to put it up in pig tails or put flowers in it but she still wants to pull it out. Don't give up. Ruby is a cutie without it though! Love the tutu and I am sure by the time she is 18 months old she will love dressing up. That is about the age that Hannah started liking purses, shoes, jewelry, makeup, dolls, and anything girly. It is fun! But she can play just as hard as her brothers which I also like. Anyways, love the pictures!

Your hair is amazing! You look like a model, and so put-together. That Ruby girl is a little doll.
