Lots

Ok...so it's been a minute since I've posted anything, and a lot has been going on around here! 

Last Tuesday I took Ruby to the Dr. for a checkup and she got two shots!!!  She wasn't very happy at all, but I did get her calmed down pretty quickly.  She is a tough one!  Dr. Andy thinks she is doing perfectly and just told us to keep doing what we are doing.  Relief!  The most exciting part of the day though was....get ready for it....Ruby rolled over for the first time at 9 weeks old!  Dr. Andy had her on her stomach looking at her birthmark on the back of her head, and she rolled right over!  It was pretty awesome to see her do that even though I thought it was a fluke!  However, she has done it again several times since!  I have a superbaby on my hands!

Brian and I decided that we wanted to go to Purdue's homecoming the past Saturday, so my Mom and Dad offered to take Ruby for a night while I tried to re-live my college years.  Our little tailgating crew even was able to stay up and hang out after the tailgate...which is VERY abnormal since we usually get up and start at 8 AM...so my parents offered to keep her one more night so we could hang out longer!  yeah...they are awesome!  We had so much fun with everyone in West Lafayette...but two days is pushing it for being away from my little one!

Ruby and I hung out with my parents on Sunday with Blake, Ash, and Brody and I have to say that even though Brody still doesn't want anything to do with Ruby...he did try to say "baby Ruby" once.  Progress.  :)

Weekend Without!

This weekend Brian's sister was in from Cleveland with her little girls and we had a great time hanging out with them!  They were so grown up from the last time that we saw them and were so sweet towards Ruby! Ruby also got to spend the night at Grandma Evelyn's with her cousins for the first night away from us!  We were OK...but definitely worried a little bit!  Of course she was perfectly fine and I think was pretty easy-going for everyone!  Success!  Here are a few fun pics from her stay!






We also had a quick trip to Anderson Orchard this weekend!  It was so crowded and really really hot, but we got some great mums and apples...and of course a sweet picture with Ruby!



We saw Ashley and Brody for a quick minute too!  He was still pretty hesitant, but definitely warming up to her!  We snapped a quick pick with both of them before he started pushing her away!



Brian and I also went to a diaper and keg party for our good friends Eric and Holly Scott!  She is due in a month...but probably earlier! :)  It was nice to get out and have a good time while Ruby was safe and sound!  Of course we missed her like crazy, but it was refreshing!

That about sums it up!  Here is one for the road! :)

Nashville Trip

Last weekend my mom and I took Ruby on a trip to Nashville to visit my Uncle Rhett and we had a fabulous time!  Rhett played a quick little gig at a cafe in Kingston Springs where he lives on Friday night and Ruby had fun at her first show!  Saturday we had a jewelry booth at the art fair they had in Kingston Springs and it was fabulous!  The weather was beautiful and we had so many people liking our jewelry and our display.  We even won BEST BOOTH! 



Ruby is officially 8 weeks old today!  It is crazy how fast my time with her is going...I have less than 4 weeks left at home with her!  She is getting so so so big and is really beginning to react to people when she sees them and loves to play and smile in the morning!  She still is the sweetest little peanut...but definitely lets you know what she wants!  I like that about her!  :)
