Uncle Scott, Catie, Jaden, and Jaden came for a visit.

Sorry Nathan, Rubie thinks your name is Jaden as well (even though you gave her ice cream and carried her around). Let's start with Catie - poor Catie, when she comes for a visit, Rubie will not leave her alone. She loves her cousin so much! She is like Catie's personal stalker. Little Catie was trying to poop, and Rubie is sitting on the stool in the bathroom just talking away. Catie is such a good sport about it...


You can see the love that Rubie has for Catie...


Handsome Jaden #1...


Handsome Jaden #2 (also known as Nathan)...

Rubie is so excited, she can't even contain herself (or keep her eyes open)...

First Swim of 2009

It wasn't really hot enough yet in my opinion, but Rubie LOVES water - ocean, pool, bath, it doesn't matter, she will jump in. Her dad set this up for her and she had the best time. Thanks to Gramma Pam for getting her the cute babysuit...





Singing as usual...

Why yes, that is Rubie in the backyard with no pants on.

She had them on when she went out there - who knows what happened...

Happiness is a milk mustache on a lazy Friday afternoon...

Why does she look 15 here?

She never stops singing

These were taken in our front yard today. She was singing pretty much the entire time. Please notice the fashionable sandals - she has to wear closed toed shoes at preschool, so this is the only type of sandal allowed there (safety before fashion)...

Saturday, Part Two

We spent the second half of Saturday at a birthday party at my dad's house. Hi, dad(He loves having his picture taken)...


I sense a recurring theme...

This is Rubie's cousin, Johnny. Rubie thinks his full name is Johnny Cash, and so that's what she calls him...





Sweetest thing ever...


Yes, that is my daughter making out with a tree face. Notice her cousin watching in horror.

Saturday, Part One

This first one is really from Friday, but I couldn't resist throwing it in here. The girl has crack issues, and it always makes me laugh...

Now onto Saturday. We started our day by going to watch cousin Brandon play baseball. Henry and Rubie had a great time on the playground...

Probably my favorite picture of the day. Rubie and grandpa...

I love how she is resting her chin on his head...

Wearing grandpa's hat...

Watching the game...
