Swimming!

This week we borrowed the pool pass from the library! It's an indoor pool with nice warm water. We all had lots of fun, and Ruby did really well. She didn't even cry when we dunked her under :) Well, she was born in the water, so I can see why she would like it so much. This week Ruby learned how to say the "n" sound, so she's been saying lots of words with n, like "neigh" for a horse, "no" the right way instead of with a d, etc. It's been a nice, relaxing week after the craziness of vacation. She has transitioned to one nap really well. I put her down right after lunch, so around 12:30 or 1:00, and she sleeps for two to two-and-a-half hours. It's great. This way we can run errands and things in the mornings, and I can either nap or get lots of stuff done while she naps in the afternoon.
 She's been wanting to put on her own bibs, and she thinks they look pretty.
 Playing with a styrofoam sword at Craft Warehouse.
 Sleeping angel.
 Pig tails!
 This is the sweater I made for my niece Lia when she was Ruby's age!
 She found Daddy's hat and put it on all by herself, then laughed.
 And she did this all by herself too. Silly girl.
Having fun with Mommy! 
 I love this girl's smile.
 Eating with her own spoon...
 and trying to eat with a fork. She hasn't quite mastered stabbing things yet.
 Movie night!
 She loved being in this bowl last night.

 So funny.
 She's been putting things in this little cloth box.
 She loves to ride on her riding toys. She'll get on it, and I'll push her across the room. If we're headed toward the wall or furniture she whispers "bump" before we hit it.
I love this girl!
