Weekend Update: The Ruby Edition

Life’s a complete mystery with Ruby: One day she’s totally digging the pink sweater, the next day she’s yelling like the sweater’s is SO NOT WHAT SHE WANTS.

You never really know what Ruby is thinking.

Like so…

shel

Sometimes you can’t get her to sit through a picture book, and sometimes she will surprise you with her concentration. Shel Silverstein’s The Giving Tree is a long read – for a 21-month-old – but Ruby loves it.

hand

Sometimes she uses her right hand, and sometimes she uses her left.

apple

Sometimes you think she needs everything peeled and cut into bite sizes, and sometimes she surprises you by eating the whole apple by herself.

And then sometimes, she does whatever it is she does…

It’s Talky Singy Friday!

This is how you sing the ABCs. With verve.

Sometimes I Am Afraid To Post More Pictures Here…

I’ve Got My Shades

I’ve got my shades
To give me props
To make me fab, and make me pop
I had none
But now I’m fly
There are cool shades on me
