8 Months Old!

I am so behind with Ruby's month by month updates!  Thankfully, I make notes throughout the month so I can go back and look instead of having to remember everything!  Everyone warned me about second child syndrome!  We love you, sweet Ruby, you just keep us very busy!

This month was a big one for new milestones!

  • You love to find your feet and chew on them!
  • You learned to wave and wave at everyone, and smile so big when anyone acknowledges you!
  • We had to move you out of the mama's and papas chair because you would take the tray off and almost fall out.  You now eat in big brothers chair that we strap into the dining chair.
  • You love to eat and try new foods. 
  • Finally, you can find your paci and put it in your mouth!  Although, you never really want it unless you are tired. 
  • Anything that is in a bin or basket you love to empty!  
  • You started crawling!  Just like your brother you never really army crawled, you got up on all fours and never looked back!
  • Anytime we are out we get compliments on how sweet and happy you are!
  • No new words, still only "Da-Da!" 
Your schedule is pretty much the same as the past few months. Eating every 3-4 hours, one morning nap and one afternoon nap.  Although you are really flexible with just about everything!

You are still in size 2 diapers and the smallest rise setting in cloth diapers and wear 6-9 month clothes.  Your hair has transitioned to almost a brassy, blonde!  It is getting really long, and sometimes curls, but not yet as curly as big brother's!

We go to the doctor at the end of next month, and I will finally have stats.  You are pretty petite, but still have the best little leg rolls!


Ruby Caroline, 

We are totally in love with you!  Even the ladies at church take you around to the other classes to show how sweet you are before they take you to your room! You are our joy and we love, love, you to the moon! 

Love, Mama and Daddy
