Last week Ruby and I went to a playdate at Melody's house. She and I went to college together and I just now realized she lives around the corner from us. She has a son nearly Ruby's age so they got to play. This picture makes me laugh!
One of Ruby's favorite things is pasta with sauce. I usually sneak some veggies like broccoli or peas in. This weekend we gave her some pasta and she made an absolute mess. Luckily she was just in her diaper, but man...we had to dump a bucket of water on her just to be able to take her inside for her bath. You can tell she enjoyed it though.
Saturday we went over to the Ebarbs to help celebrate their son Peyton's second birthday. They had a petting zoo (which seems to be THE thing to have at birthday parties nowadays!) so Ruby got to visit with all sorts of animals such as turtles, goats, rabbits, a horse, and chickens. Here she is with a turtle (and she happens to have just the right turtle dress for the occasion!)
The Ebarbs had a really fun party...complete with a cool train cake...notice the train conductor hats the kids are wearing. How neat! Happy birthday Peyton.
I've been trying to find something fun Ruby can play with in the backyard. Someone told me about these tables and so I just got one last week. Ruby loves it! She can splash her hands, dip a cup and then pour it out, put the toys in and take them out. It's great to help her cool off since the temperatures have reached 90 or so this week!
Earlier this week we had a playdate at our neighborhood spray park. The babies had fun running/crawling through the water!
I forgot to post this. For Ruby's actual birthday we took a trip out to the Fort Worth zoo (one of her favorite places!)
We pointed out all the fish and turtles.
And we rode the carousel together.
Such a fun day out with my one year old daughter!
