Bedtime with Ruby

June 15, 2015 By Christie

Bedtime is my absolute favorite with Ruby. We read books, we sing songs, she teases and teases and is just so much fun. Tonight she was squishing my cheeks together so my mouth stuck out while we sang, and then she did the same while we sang “skitta ma rink a dink a dink… I love You.” song. It was so funny as she’d sing her “I Wuv OOOO!” So cute.

Tonight she was complaining again of her heart hurting :( . She told me it was sad. She said “Owie” and pointed to it and wanted me to kiss her scar. And I started to cry. With her aneurysm, how do I know if it’s really serious? They seemed to think that chest pain alone is not a reason for us to bring her in–it’d have to be accompanied by more symptoms, like her being tired or laying down or things like that. I was sad though, because if something happens I will never be able to forgive myself. When we found it, I felt like the Spirit really was directing us so that we were able to find out about it. And I just hope and pray that I won’t miss anything. It’s a little scary. But also a great reason (of course, one of many) to stay in tune with the Spirit so that I won’t blame myself forever if something bad happens. I really hate that aneurysm. I also really wish we weren’t told to wait 6 months between appointments. It’s like it’s always at the back of my mind, taunting me that life can change in an instant. Of course it can for anyone for a number of different reasons, but it’s just a bit more in your face.

Anyways, these pictures are funny. She climbed into bed at bedtime and just kept saying “No” like I will NOT be going back to the crib tonight. She “threatens” to climb out, though as soon as we leave she stops. But I’ll feel bad if or when she does fall out! I know I should be a better mom and put her in a bed, but after this trial run you see pictured below, it didn’t go well at all. She cried and cried, even when I put Devon and Bailey with her on the floor. Even when she had her siblings and I didn’t put her in her crib, she cried and got up as soon as I was leaving. Plus I know she will take very rare naps once she moves to a big girl bed. Eventually she will, but for now I’m risking her falling out of her crib I guess. It sounds horrible typing that!

First set of pics from a couple weeks ago–I had made a sleep sack with feet hoping it would help. It didn’t. I then made her one without feet and she figured out she could stretch it off of her after about a week of wearing it, so it also didn’t work.

Here’s when she climbed into the twin size bed to try and avoid the crib for the night. DSC_0300 DSC_0301 DSC_0302 DSC_0303 DSC_0304 DSC_0305 DSC_0306 DSC_0307

Such a funny girl. And such amazing siblings she’s blessed with. We are all so lucky to have each other!

Memorable Moments June 2015

~Ruby says "Thank You" when you give her anything. Except it's more like "Day Oooo." I love it. She's also trying harder to say please (or Peeeeze) for things she wants. What a polite little girl :).

~Yesterday Bailey came down with the Clone Trooper costume on, which is 4 sizes too big I'm pretty sure, and her bull horns on. It was awesome. And sums up this girl pretty darn well.

~Carson told us that he was the laughing stock of Primary on Sunday. He meant to say the Class Clown :).

~Devon's so funny these days. If you catch him doing something he shouldn't be, he gets an innocent little smile and then starts rolling his eyes everywhere except looking at you. :)
