Harvest!

Here is the first harvest from our little balcony garden!

Books

Today we got some new books from a friend. Hooray! We love books over here.

(I know I haven't posted in about six months so I decided I would just jump right in where we are)

Ruthie Says...

I was 51 weeks old!


Three things about me:
1. I like to kick my feet in my umbrella stroller
2. When Mommy opens the dishwasher I try to climb onto the door.
3. I love to play with Daddy. He is so fun!













Guess how old I am in this picture: 52 WEEKS!

Three things about me:
1. I think my cousins Armand and Juliet are fun.
2. I weigh 17 pounds 5 ounces.
3. I like to pull things out of their boxes. Things like tissues and wipes.

Behind the times

I will say that once I find myself behind in posting it is difficult to get caught up. The longer I wait the more difficult it is. I have not yet posted the last two weeks of Ruthie's weekly photos, our trip to Utah, and Ruthie's 1st birthday. I vow to post some of this tomorrow!

Mommy is so behind on posting that I have decided to take control.

Here is a picture of me when I was 48 weeks old.
(That means I was 11 months old)

Three things about me from that week:
1. I can climb the stairs.
2. I am getting curls.
3. I like to read books at bedtime,










Here are some pictures of me from two weeks ago.

Mommy and I on the stairs

My Curls

Mommy and I reading book right before bed

 Then I was 49 weeks old.
Here are some things about me that week:
1. Mommy uses the chairs to make a barricade to keep me in the living room. I like to drop things over the top.
2. I like to play in my room and read all the board books. I can make a bzzzzz sound for the Buzzy Bee Book.
3. Right now my two favorite books are the book Mothers and Daughters that Grandma made and the book When Jessie Came Across the Sea that came from Great-Uncle Frank.












Here are more pictures of me.

I am eating a yummy lunch

This is my barricade. I use it to pull myself up

Now I am 50 Weeks old!
Here are three things about me now:
1. I bite toes and ankles... not just mine.
2. After I get my hair brushed I like to hold the brush and try to do it myself.
3. I am very brave at library Story Time and will crawl away from Mommy to meet some other kids. Mr. Steve the story man doesn't mind if you crawl around the room.







By the way, this post was ready on Sunday, but Daddy accidentally put the wrong numbers on my onsies so we had to wait until he could fix them. He is very busy with school, work, homework, and playing with me so it took a few days.

Three things about me:
1. I am starting to pull myself up.
2. I like to try to climb on and over things.
3. I don't like having my face cleaned after I eat.
