New House & Other Updates

Look ma! Almost no hands :)

Cool new toy!

Hanging out in the new kitchen.

Jason, Ruby & I moved last Saturday! We now have a permanent (not rental) home in Oak Ridge. We are much closer to Jason's work here, and very close to all of the friends Ruby and I have made in the area. The house is wonderful and in a great area. I can't wait for it to warm up outside because I think Ruby will really enjoy playing in the yard. The kitties have also made themselves at home and seem to enjoy "talking" to the birds in the trees.

Ruby is really getting good at this crawling thing, and she is into EVERYTHING! I never thought I'd have to say "Ruby, no eating the power cord" so many times. And for the past few weeks she's really started pulling up on anything she can. When we get her in the morning, she is standing in her crib, she uses all of her toys to stand up, she uses the couch to stand, and now she has started to "walk" using her toys (just one or two steps ... more of scooting along on her feet.)

Also, Ruby is still doing wonderfully at daycare. When I went to pick her up the other day, she had taken all of her bottle, ate all of her vegetables, and was napping! The caretakers in the infant room are so good with her ... and they discovered that she loves watching bubbles and trying to grab them.

If you need our new address, send me an e-mail and I'll give it to you.
