new years

there has been a whole lotta stuff going on around here. it is a new year and ruby has become 5 months old! she also has used her passport for the first time and her first tooth (bottom front) decided to make a grand entrance to mark the occasion.

we just returned from a week in Spain! it was a time for david and i to thaw out a little (it was in the 60s, a nice break for us), and for ruby to see her grandma and grandpop. culturally, i don't know if spain was the best place to go with a 5 month old. by the time we were ready to get out of the flat, everything was closing for siesta, and when we needed to eat dinner, none of the restaurants were open yet! but we got used to the spanish time schedule and had fun regardless.

ruby was great and loved traveling. we had the WORST turbulence on the way home and she just laughed about it while david and i were nervously looking at eachother. i guess it is good to be clueless!
