VIDEO - Ruby sings her ABCs

Ruby can sing her ABCs. I caught this video of her getting it mostly right!

She just thinks of it as a fun song...but she has started to identify things that have writing/ABCs on them.

It's a start.

Rocking Birthday party

Ruby went to a joint birthday party for 4 of her playgroup friends. It was a rock and roll theme and it was at a fun play area called Paradise Pond.

They have lots of stuff to climb on, a bounce house and many toy stations.






One of her favorite things was this car that rides down a ramp.

Ruby visits the Dallas Museum of Art

Ruby and I went with some friends to the Dallas Museum of Art. On the first week of the month they have a free entrance fee, so that's when we go!

FOUNTAINS...Ruby loves fountains!


Ruby and her friend Addison check out the waterfall.








We walked around for a short time, then had lunch in the cafe, then listened to storytime there.





It was a fun day out!

Happy July 4th!

We hosted a small bbq with some friends for July 4th.

I made Ruby a cute dress for the occasion.

Having fun with her friends in their waterslide pool.

BBQ with the Jaaskelainens

The Jaaskelainens came over for BBQ several weeks ago. Alex grilled and the kids played outside.
