Ruby Rubes and Charlotte Too!: Scary Witch!

Ruby is infatuated with Halloween. Especially the "cary" stuff. She loves to see "cary witches" and "cary ghosts" and "cary piders". The scarier the better! The people in our neighborhood decorate their houses to the max so we have to go see the scary decorations frequently. Every time we get in the car, the first thing she says is "I want to see a cary witch!" Halloween is going to be very fun this year but I don't think I'm going to get away with eating her candy like I did last year. Ruby's going to be a cute little butterfly, although she's been trying to convice me lately that she wants to be a "cary witch".

Ruby is a great little colorer! It is so much fun just to sit with her and color and talk. She's really getting so much better and tries to stay in the lines. She loves to draw too and usually wants to draw a scary spider, witch, monster, etc...

Ruby's been starting to dream a lot lately. She usually wakes up with a story to tell. The other day, she was dreaming about a lion that was chasing her trying to bite her toes. Another day, it was about her friend Lexi, she dreamt that she broke the cd player. It's fun to see what her little mind is dreaming about and even more fun that she can tell us.

Mommy and Em took Ruby for her very first real pedicure and she LOVED it! Of course she picked out blue nail polish. She sat very still and was so good. When we were leaving she said she wanted to do it again. Oh-oh, look what I've started.
Thanks to Em, Doug and I had a WONDERFUL weekend away in NJ! It was so great to just get away and not worry about a thing. They had a great time, even though Ruby did decide to test Em for one of the days. Once she realized she wasn't going to phase Em with her naughty behaviour, she went back to her sweet self. Thank you so much again Em!!!!
