10 months!?

This little thing is 10 months old. Whaaaat? Yes, I'm kind of in denial that she is almost 1.

Trey pushed her around on this little car and she was in hog heaven. She spread her legs out and left them out the whole ride and had a huge goofy grin on her face. Oh Ruby, how we love you and all your cuteness.
This past month has been the month of curiosity. She is really loving getting into things. She loves banging two things together and hearing the sound it makes. She loves to dump out stuff, knock over Lucy's block creations, touch the on/off button on the computer and the power strip, pull all the books off the bottom level of the bookshelf, play with all the remotes and the xbox controller, etc. We've had to keep a closer eye on her, especially the past week. She sure is a busy little thing.

She's totally has the ragamuffin hair. It's so wispy! I don't know what to do with it. Baby hair is tricky. I guess I need to get some baby gel? Ha ha...that just sounds silly.
She mainly still gets around by rolling/scooting/army crawling but this past week she figured out how to pull herself up to standing.

Yup, now we're in trouble. I can totally see us as we're trying to pack stuff up to move and there's little Ruby going through the boxes and pulling the stuff back out. :)
She is such a happy girl who loves to smile and make other people smile. The usual comment I get at the grocery store from cute old ladies is "look at those big blue eyes!". Her eyes are still very big and a very pretty blue.

 Piggies!

 

She loves to dance when she's standing. She'll mix it up from her usual sway to bending her knees now. It's pretty cute. Her favorite place to be is at the little play table.

Her favorite toy is Lucy's drumsticks. She always seems to find them wherever they are hiding. She's an impatient eater. You have to give her something to feed herself to entertain her while you're trying to feed her baby food. She could care less about a bottle. She loves to play with and bite my earrings. She gives the best kisses and understands when I ask her for one. She claps her hands when she's excited. She does a crazy wiggle dance when she's hyper. She loooves everything Lucy does. She is kinda rough when she plays with her but Ruby just laughs (most of the time).

 

 

She gets so excited to take baths with big sister. They have so much fun together.

Her 5th tooth grew in, it's the right front tooth. Now we're just waiting for the other to match.
I love this little bean. Lucy came up with some awesome nicknames for Ruby lately: Ruboo, Rubo, and Wirby. I usually call her sweet girl, bebe, or Rubes. And occasionally Ru-bay or Rubabe.

Happy 10 months girly!!
