Ruby is getting to be such a big girl! She has grown so much faster than George and Lulu seemed to at 3! She finally said, "I want a big bed like the kids, mom!" In all of our moves, we haven't had to take the crib down. I love our crib and nursery! I loved picking it out when we were expecting George. I loved picking out new bedding to match each kids personality as they were welcomed home! When we brought Lu home, 2 1/2 year old George looked so small in his big-boy bed. Then when Lu was 4 and Rubes was soon to arrive, we had to push her out of her affectionately named "cribby-bye". Lu got a whole new room and a beautiful new big-girl bed to entice her out! Well, Rubes will be 4 in March and I just don't have the heart to take the crib down. So here is Rubes with her converted crib or as she likes to call it her "brand-new-big-girl-bed"! That first night she asked if George and Lu could have a sleep over in her "new" bed...
Ruby is very busy these days with preschool, ballet (she even preformed in her very first dance recital for the holidays!) and constant, elaborate and very messy arts & crafts at the kitchen table. Anyone who has received a wrapped gift from Rubes can vouch for her creativity and generosity! On different occasions she has carefully wrapped my kitchen scissors, tape dispenser and cooking utensils, then gave them as gifts! Some of Ruby's favorite things
PAPA, Winston, baking & cooking, anything Lulu is doing, her babies, her animals, playing on nickjr.com or pbskids.com (she has mastered the mouse!), "homework", watching cooking demonstrations on the computer and just trying to keep up!
