a sneak peek...

Here is a sneak peek at some of the photos we had taken a couple weeks ago of Ruby. The photographer is great, we love Carmen. You can take a look at them on her BLOG. I heart these photos, and i'm so happy to have these beautiful little keepsakes from those first couple of days at home with Ruby. i think these are my two favorites

But it's almost impossible to choose, because i love all these images so much!

She had her 1 month check-up this week, and she's doing splendid. She's almost 9 lbs now, and has grown by 2 inches! We can't believe it.

Last weekend was also her first meeting with Ben's side of the family. Grams and Gramps Saunders as well as Great-Grams and Great-Gramps came for a visit, and i think it's safe to say it was love at first sight :) everyone enjoyed the visit, and Ruby pretty much got passed around from one lap to the next most of the weekend, but she didn't mind.
A few pics from what we affectionately refer to as "the circus":
4 generations here!!
We even got out for a walk yesterday, which was AWESOME. It was 75 degrees, and Ruby is big enough to carry in the front-pack now, so we celebrated a good doctor's appointment by taking a walk together, and we invited Emigre too. Now we're hungry for more of that spring weather!!!!

Plus, it's a common opinion that Ruby looks a lot like Ben, but look at these baby pics of Ben... we didn't know she was actually a female CLONE of him... (ha ha)
the only way we can tell the pictures apart from the pictures of Ruby is by Betty's hair :)
