Easter

I guess you could say I'm a bit behind on my blogging... and I can't even say I've been that busy... writing has never been a favorite of mine, so I guess I've just put other things above the blog! So anyway, here are some Easter pics in June (ugh, so embarrassing!).

I had a wonderful 4-day weekend with my cute little lady! Paul had to work on Good Friday and the Monday after Easter but we had a great Easter just staying at home in Iowa City. Paul's brother Joel joined us for Easter lunch as he stayed in IC as well.

Four Months

Ruby weighed over 14 pounds at her 4 month checkup. And as you can see, she was SO happy before the shots, and so sad afterwards. The nurses accused me of being a mean mom with the camera (I think they were kidding!) but I just couldn't help it! I still think she's just the cutest little thing when she cries!

Three Months

Ruby came down with her first cold this week. Even though she sounds like a little piglet, she is still eating and sleeping very well. She is one tough cookie!

Two Months

Yep, a little behind! Our little baby cakes is growing fast! She started going to daycare on March 7th and is enjoying all the other little kiddos there! Ruby did really well with her 2 month shots...when they poked her, her eyes got real big and she let out the biggest scream ever. Luckily, when I picked her up she recovered in about 5 seconds! She weighed just short of 12 pounds at 2 months.

Trip to Sibley

Ruby was a great traveler when we went back home to Sibley in mid January. She also got to meet LOTS of people!

One Month stats

So I've tried to update this blog for awhile now, but for some reason my pictures wouldn't upload, and a post without pictures would be a little boring! So I guess January is over and our baby girl is already almost two months old!

Ruby had a little trouble gaining weight her first month - she only gained three and a half ounces more than her birth weight by her one month checkup. At five weeks, she finally caught on and gained over a pound in 8 days! She was in the 15 percentile and back on the growth curve that she needed to be on. We are excited to see what she weighs at the end of this week at her two month checkup!

We just love her to pieces!
