"Mommy? I wan cereal"
{Ruby taking a nap one day}
Ruby's new bedtime ritual...stalling. She gets in her bed, I lay next to her, we read a few books, and then it begins.
Ruby: Mommy? I wan cereal
Mom: No, Ruby, it's time for bed
Silence
Ruby: Mommy? I wan wager
Mom: Ruby, you just had water...go to bed
Silence
Ruby: Mommy? I wan rag ann
Mom: You want Raggity Ann? Okay, I will get her for you.
I proceed to get Raggity Ann from Ruby's shelf, and bring the doll to Ruby.
Once the doll is in Ruby's hands, she squints her eyes, shakes her head, and motions for me to put Raggity Ann back.
Mom: You want Raggity Ann back on the shelf?
Ruby: Yea (as she nods her head vigorously)
Ruby: I wan dad yay down
Mom: HUGH! Ruby wants you.
Then Hugh comes in and lays down with us.
And after much tossing, turning, and bouncing around...she's out. And so are we.

ruby? i wan YOU!
she's absolutely the cutest. i love her!!!!!!!!!
I love the hands behind the head! Graham does that in the car seat sometimes and I think he looks like such a cool guy!
Graham stalls every night with more stories! I don't know why they can't just get the routine that this is going to happen every night for the rest of their lives and quit avoiding it! but they sure are cute!
she is such a little talker now! it is so cute to hear :)
and seriously, who taught her to sleep and relax like that?! i can't get over it.
