three photos of the cutie
Some of my favorite photos of Ruthie of late:
Loves sticks.
Eats with THREE spoons.
And she's the cutest baby ever.

bathtime fun
What's great about this photo is that it's the complete antithesis of Ruthie's attitude in the bath, coupled with a Rembrandt-like style of lighting.

Ruthie News Reel
Today's pediatrician stats: 16lbs. 10oz / 26.5"
She got a flu shot, the first of two (yes, I vaccinate). And soon--too soon--she'll be an entire year old!
