Rubi turns TWO.

This past year has been pretty fantastic with Rubi. She has a great sense of humor, an ENORMOUS personality and she's extremely loving. The past two years of our lives have been wonderful, thanks to Rubi. No matter the kind of day I've had at work, picking up Rubi from school still excites me...as she is barreling towards the door, knocking down children in her path (this just shows me she cares). Her speech as progressively gotten better, we can now understand about 50-60 % of the things flying out of her mouth. Every night around 730 she pulls my face closer to hers to tell me about her day (this is what i assume she is saying, she might be telling me politely that i need a mint).

Rubi is now old enough for the toddler room at day-care...which is both exciting and terrifying. But we know that she is more than ready for the move. Rubi still has the occasional food protest, around every 2-3 months she won't eat anything for days at a time (although looking at her, you wouldn't think she had any problem eating).

Rubi has no problem warming up to new people..especially teenagers. She loves meeting new people, and making them laugh. Whenever we go out, she is much more interested in involving herself with the surrounding crowd, than her boring parents...which is cute, but can be occasionally awkward.

I can't imagine not having Rubi around, she makes our day, every single day...and like i said the past two years have been the best of our entire lives...thanks to little girl. We feel incredibly lucky to have her in our lives.

Happy 2nd birthday Rubi Lyn McCann.
