Ruby Can

Ruby has been doing many new things this month!She has been able to push up to sitting for awhile but only tried it occasionally,the past two weeks she has started pushing herself up to sitting daily and many,many times a day!
She has learned the sign for more and enjoys signing more when we blow bubbles for her.
She clearly says,"op" for stop when she doesn't like something, and a few nights ago told me "No!" and then gave me a beautiful smile when I said it was time to go night,night.
And I'm thrilled to say that last night after we put her to bed in her crib ,she pulled herself up to standing and scared my teenage daughter ,(who Ruby shares a room with),by nearly flinging herself over the rail of the bed! My dear husband had to get a wrench out and lower the mattress before we could safely put her back to bed!

I hope all my blogging friends are doing well,I have had a lot of family drama going on with my older children :) and haven't had much time for blog reading.I was able to attend a missions conference at church last week that was truly a blessing to me and came at a perfect time to help me wade through some of the drama.The missionaries brought wonderful messages and also let us know every night after service how much they enjoyed our little Ruby and her "singing" during our congregational singing :)

I hope the drama irons itself out soon - that stuff can be really draining. And YEAH! for Ruby's accomplishments. I love that she sings at church.

Ruby's doing great! How exciting that she's sitting on her own and what a monkey trying to climb out of bed! I hope all's well with you and your family!
