THIRTEEN months!!

It slipped my mind! Yesterday was the 4th! Ruby was 13 months! Ey yi yi. Well this girl is M-O-B-I-L-E! She's all over the place - pulling her self up onto anything, scooting along furniture, crawling everywhere, mastered the one step up-and-down routine (have yet to try a whole staircase, but one stair is just fine...), and overall getting into EVERYTHING. She recognizes and can point out cat, dog, nose, bird, dad, mom, and all of her common foods (especially milk!). She will *sometimes* "hug" (i.e. put her head down on your shoulder) when you ask for one, has started giving kisses, and waves hello, bye bye and goodnight. She is (unfortunately) developing some bruises from trying out this whole "walking" thing(check out her right cheek - you may be able to see a little shiner)... Poor baby! Overall, such a happy baby... we love love love her!!
