Dear Ruby-Month 3

Dear Ruby,

How is it possible that you have been with us for three months now? I was looking thru your birth pictures earlier because I needed to remember how little you were. It makes me sad to know that you aren't ever going to be this little again. More than likely you are our last baby, so I just want to savor every moment and every stage.

You are still a very calm and mild mannered little babe. You rarely cry unless, you have a tummy ache or are extremely tired. This month, you started sleeping thru the night. I don't mean a five or six hour stretch, I mean 7-7 or 8-8. How did you know that mama just needed you to start sleeping longer? Moving on to why you are sleeping thru the night...you found your thumb this month. You will still take your sucky, but will spit it out and find your little thumb. I think it's adorable.

It's amazing how much you are looking around, checking out your surroundings and listening to voices. You also started laughing this month. You love to watch Reyna and smile when you hear her voice. And how is it in just one short month, you are reaching for toys, cooing all the time and holding your little head up like you have been doing it forever?

This month, you took your first little road trip with Nana and I to Cadillac for a babyshower. Did I mention you slept the entire way there and back? And, you were probably the most well behaved guest at the shower. I was so proud of you.

I love you, Ruby Elizabeth.

Mama
