We blew up the yoga ball for me to use as I progress in this pregnancy. Ruthie wanted to help and thus was very inquisitive about the airhose.

The other day while folding wash, I had a little helper. I packed her up into the rolling basket and wheeled her around the house. She had a great time. I may pay for this later but it was fun for the moment.

We got Ruthie a new carseat as we will be using her old one for Samuel.

A friend’s mom made her a new bear. Needless to say, she was just a little excited about it.

Ok - here’s the belly as of 2/12.

This one is a little bit older - 2/4.

She learned how to navigate stairs at Samantha’s birthday party this weekend.

*  Ruthie patting her tummy when asked “Where’s Ruthie’s tummy?”  - here again, done only for Mommy this time.

*  Arching of back and limp legs when Ruthie doesn’t want to be put down in one way or another.

*  Ruthie running to the back door whenever we mention changing her diaper, going night night, wiping her nose, show up with a tissue to wipe her nose - pretty much anything she doesn’t want to do.

And just because I don’t think I’ve ever posted a picture of the blue dress that Grandma Syd provided for her and Mommy made, here it is:
