Happy Four Months, Ruby!


Happy Four Months, Ruby!


Ruby’s Fourth Month
Clothes: “3-6 mos"
Diapers:  Size “1” and “2”
This month has been fun!  (A little rough) but fun!  Continued issues with sleeping at night -  I just can’t figure it out.  One night I’ll think it’s teething related, the next I’m convinced it’s gas.  But, her naps during the day are still good.  So that and the fact that her personality is starting to come out - the fun stuff made up for the sleepless nights! 
One big piece of news this month - I went back to work... and I have to say – it hasn’t been that bad.  With the luxury of working from home and having her here with “Miss Lexie”, I’m able to see her and not miss a thing.  We are so incredibly blessed. 
 
Okay, more Ruby news!

-Has started blowing like we do.  I don’t know that she had a choice.  We were constantly in her face blowing. 

-Is talking more and more.  Has full on conversations with us…with SO much feeling behind it.  She REALLY wants to talk to us.  A lot of people think she sounds like Raegan.  We went to pick Rae up from school one day and Rae’s infant room teacher heard Ruby cry.  She said “Oh my.  That is Raegan Ransom.”  Which excites me because one of my favorite things about Ruby’s big sister is her voice.  It’s the sweetest…in my opinion J

-Along with talking, she has started fussing at her toys…almost arguing with them…when they won’t do what she wants them to do.  It’s funny.  Now anyway…

-Also smiling a ton.  I think everyone would agree that a baby smiling is one of the most precious things.   I can’t think of a more genuine gesture.  

-On the same note, she laughed for the first time this month!   I sound completely ridiculous when trying to get her to laugh, but naturally - I put that aside and just do whatever it takes. :)

-She also does this funny noise...almost like a giggle.  Does this little laugh like “keee keee keee keee”

-Made her first of many visits to Savannah this month

 -Has started sitting in her bumbo

 -Still gnawing on her hands constantly…just waiting on that first little tooth to pop through.

-Towards the end of the month, she started to grab her feet.  Isn’t doing it a lot…just enough to be cute.

-A big first: Rolled over from front to back!  On 7/14.  We were face timing with DeDe so she got to see the first too!

-Lots more tummy time this month

-And of course, one of my favorite things this month is that Rae is still loving on her so much.  Ruby just lets Rae do whatever...as you'll see at the end of this post (the princess crown-made by Rae- that Ruby is wearing to appease her big sister.)

Such a fun month!  Looking forward to what the next one brings!  We love you Punkin Seed!
