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.

Alex and I decorated our tree last weekend. We decided that we'll wait until Ruby is a bit older to 'help' us with the decorating.

The morning Ruby first saw it she was so excited naming all the things she could see...ball (silver ornaments), cat, frog, stars, moon, Ruby (picture ornament of her from last year). She also knows that the tree sits in a stand full of wa-wa (water).

So far she hasn't removed anything from the tree. But just in case it is well secured to our stairwell.

Ruby and the snowman family

I have always been against cheesy inflatable yard art...But, after seeing Ruby's reaction to our neighborhood's Halloween decorations and inflatables, we just had to get something fun for our yard for the holidays!

Alex and I chose this cute snowman family...and Ruby loves it. We set it on a timer so it comes on at dusk.

Ruby always wants to peek outside and if they are deflated (during the day) she says uh-oh. But when she sees them all blown up at night she gets so excited. We wave at the snowmen and say hello.

So neat to see her enjoying Christmas magic.

Choosing a Christmas tree

Last weekend we went and got our Christmas tree. I really enjoy having the house decorated as early as possible!

Ruby was dressed cozily for the occasion.
