Update...

It's been a while since I have posted any updates. I have been busy working, taking care of Ruby, and getting ready for our new addition, Violet. It's hard to believe that in less than seven weeks, we will have another little girl in the house. She is kicking away as I type this... the best feeling in the world. I'm feeling much more prepared with this second baby than I felt before Ruby was here. I have had such an easy pregnancy so far and I'm crossing my fingers that these final weeks are stress free. If only I could finish getting this house organized. Let the countdown begin.

Ruby has been her silly and crazy self. She is full of giggles and funny sayings. Some of my favorites lately: "Mom, give it a rest!" "I love my whole family," "Who is going to be that baby's mommy?" "That's perfect!" "Two thumbs up." and finally "Your tummy is too full."

I have been trying hard to spend as much time with Ruby as possible. I know having a new baby in the house is going to be a huge adjustment and I already feel mommy guilt when I am too tired to do some of the fun things with Ruby. I know she will be fine and it will probably be a lot harder on me than it will be on her. I have some fun Ruby-Mommy dates planned in the next couple of weeks for us to spend some quality time before Violet arrives.

Here are a few recent photos of the family:
