Among other things, Ruthie has now figured out her tongue and learned how to spit.  She started pulling up on me today and makes it up to her knees.  It won’t be long.   She also pee’d on the floor tonight as she headed to the bathtub for some tubbie time.  I’m sure it was just a matter of time before that one happened.

Our latest afternoon bag of laughs is for me to get on my hands and knees and chase her around the house.  She looks back over her shoulder and just belly laughs.  It is so darn cute.  She loves the kitty toys more than her own some days and speaking of kitties.  Lily was chased three times.  When she was cornered, Lily finally figured out that if she jumped high enough, she’d be free from the torment.  She was never caught though today.

I think we are past our big growth spurt.  There for a few days I couldn’t feed her enough.  Every hour we were nursing, three times at night, plus food in the afternoon and evening.  Naps were non-existent there for a while as well.  As of yesterday, we are now back to our hour to hour and a half morning nap and an hour in the afternoon.  I would like her to sleep longer in the afternoon but it never happens.

Saturday we bought a new van.  It is a 2007 Kia Sedona in Silver with grey interior.  Joel was going to take pictures of it and blog about it.  I’ll try to get him to do it yet.  For now though, grocery shopping was so much easier today.  I don’t have to contort my body trying to get her in and out, the groceries stayed put, and the auto locks on the doors were fabulous!  This van will be a life saver when baby #2 comes.

So there is the latest in our household.  I’m sure there will be more in the coming days.
