it has been so warm here, ruby is trying to cool off via the fridge! well, the first part is true (it made it to 72 yesterday), but ruby's fascination with the fridge has more to do with the novelty of dropping things on the floor than cooling off. we have put copboard locks all over the kitchen, but the 2 things we can't lock are the fridge and freezer!Still not walking, but Ruby is getting more confident on her feet, less wobbly and more willing to take risks. anything can be used to pull herself up! and she can stand for a long time on her own, but slowly her legs give out and she drifts down onto her knees in slow-motion.
we are feeling the gas crunch over here too, our prices have rocketed in the past few months. we pay about £1.20 per liter, and there are over 3 liters to a US gallon. so say about £5 a gallon, which converts to about $10 a gallon(with the current exchange rates). crazy, eh??? no wonder the cars are smaller, the engines are smaller and we have such great rail service!

LOOOOK! loooook at the thigh chub! you *must* nom on it for me!! NOM NOM NOM NOM
listen, linda's done NO nomming whatsoever on rowan (we nommed on jake constantly), so she's not used to it and i can get away with nothing! they have to be primed for this sort of thing! SWEAR YOU WILL DO THE NOMMING. it's important work! do eet!
I can't WAIT for gas to get up to $10.00 a gallon here. Maybe then the big car corps with stop "americanizing" perfectly decent, gas efficient vehicles! Even the little smart cars got americanized and now don't even match mileage with a Prius! It's ridiculous. The only way to make them change is to take it out of their pockets.
Okay, I'm done ranting now. LOL
Ruby is so sweet! She really does look like she's doing well on her feet...more steady. What a little sweetie!
