the shortest month caught me!

good grief it's almost march! which means....it's almost SPRING!!!!!
we have been stuck inside of late, which around here is not anyone's favorite place. we're ready to get out and play in the dirt and sun, so global warming, come to portland!
i kid you, i joke. but we could use some sun.
here's the bird, playing at the indoor park.
yes, in portland, you pay 50 cents and take your child to the indoor playground. ruby LOVES it. she sits in the different cars, she watches everyone, she sits in another car. this kid doesn't fight over toys or crash into anyone. she's a quiet observer, savoring her favorite glittery pink car.
though the photo has her in a cop cruiser. oops!

her other new obsession?
ELMO. yes people, it has happened. ruby met elmo and it's been love ever since. she can't get enough of him. and i just have to get over the fact that she would rather watch elmo on TV than read him in a book. or play kitchen. or push her baby stroller. the only thing that is up there with elmo is harassing the poor dog. (who loves it, by the way.)
so we watch elmo DVDs and talk about elmo a lot. we tried the library this morning which was a BAD idea. every other parent & child combo was at the dang library. it was crazy. there were no books she was interested in, the lines were long, and blah blah blah. SPRING PLEASE COME!
love to all!
