Likes- moving, finger foods, standing, smiling, people, lost shoes, paper, her highlights book, being picked up after a bump, kisses,tickles under her chin, putting things in her mouth, kids, chasing mom around, and holding a sock in her mouth.
Dislikes- being put in the pin, falling, waiting for a meal, getting stuck, being out of sight from mom or dad, the church nursery, being held by someone else if she can see mom or dad, laying down from nap, the first diaper change of the day, sleeping with a poo diaper, and startling noises.
On the move- we have said we woolly no longer be surprised at her quick developments in this area... Yet we continue to have our mouths hang open as we watch her! Ruth began pulling to standing at the beginning of the month. She is now slowly cruising around the furniture and standing alone for up to 20 seconds. Thankfully we only had one majorly hard week when she first learned to stand up. She couldn't figure out how to get back down without falling. This is hard for a family with all concrete floors! We introduced her to the "pin" as pure necessity. It gave her some practice of learning to fall on mats. We also had a hard time with her standing in her bed. For a full week she would stress us all out refusing to lay down and sleep. After a full hour of crying, checking for wet diapers and continually laying her back down she finally fell a slew sitting up! Eventually nature does win out.
Teeth- Nothing to report yet but we're checking every day!
Firsts- Ruth celebrated her first Thanksgiving this year. Ruth and Laura woke up in time to watch the entire Macy's Thanksgiving day Parade. Ruth enjoyed watching Big Bird and the crew. Laura Cooked our first family Thanksgiving and we all enjoyed Ruth LOVING her first roll. Over all it was a wonderful day with our little turkey.
