Ruby and Roman Reunited at Ava's birthday party

Ruby was invited to Ava's birthday party at Gymboree recently.
She had so much fun playing on all the equipment!



Catching bubbles with the birthday girl...







And Ruby was reunited with her old London pal, Roman, who was in town visiting!



Alex and I also got to catch up with Brenda... Such a fun party!

A few dresses I have sewn

Lately I have been practicing sewing. I made Ruby a few short sleeve dresses (I drew and edited a pattern over time). They have elastic necks which makes them super easy to put on!

I love the sewing machine Alex gave me for my birthday!

Ruby at the park

The weather is so unpredictable in November and December. Recently we had a warm afternoon so we headed to our favorite local park! Ruby climbs and loves to slide.

Ruby and Matias

Annette and her son Matias (2) came over to play. Ruby and Matias enjoyed being outside.




And had a nice macaroni and cheese lunch.




I'm so glad I get to spend time with Annette who is on maternity leave with her newborn!

VIDEO - The Hot Dog Dance

And a bit more of the hot dog dance...

Ruby in her festive dress

Since Ruby was all dressed up for our Christmas photo I snapped a few pictures of her.


She was putting on a show standing on our fireplace.


Such a silly monkey.








Sweet Ruby.

Christmas lights and holiday photo

Alex did a great job decorating our house for Christmas. Thanks for putting up all the lights!



My friend Jessica came and took a festive holiday picture of us. She has a magic ability to get Ruby to smile for photos! Thanks again Jessica.
