summer

I think someone took the scotland that i knew and traded it with some other bizarro-scotland. maybe it is global warming... whatever the fluke, because i am sure it is a fluke, we are having some glorious weather! when i say glorious, i mean the following: high 50s to high 60s, little wind and gobs of sunshine. the weather has been so great that i have been wearing skirts, and ruby has been lathered with sunscreen on her bare arms and legs when we leave the house! i have a fear that someone will wake me from this amazing dream.....
we happen to have a great park near our house that has all the equipment that kids need to tire them out. ruby is a big fan of the swings, and she is getting used to the little slide there too. we try to go a few times a week, but it isn't a best kept secret, so the swings are usually full. this is also the last week of all the playgroups and music times that we go to. they close up shop for the summer, so we will have to meet up with our friends at the afore mentioned park for some outdoor fun. i hope this weather lasts!!!

10 months old

internet? what is that!? ever since Ruby started
crawling, i barely have time to sit in front of this contraption! one of the only things she really dislikes, besides gratch eating her toast, is sitting in front of the computer while mommy types. so if you don't hear from me, or i haven't posted in a while, you know why.
ruby is great. she is funny, smart, friendly and beautiful. we love her and can't say too many wonderful things about her no matter how early she wakes us up, or how many nappies we must change. we love watching her change and seeing her personality emerge. and we love the fact that she teaches us things, in the best buddha-like style.
