Chad and Ruby's self portrait while walking. You can see smoke and strange light from the fires in the area.

Ruby eating her first finger food, a banana fruit and cereal puff for babies. She is good at picking them up, but not quite getting the actual eating part yet.

She "lost" her puff and seems to be wondering where it went. On your pjs, silly! *

Not sure she likes the texture in her mouth! *

There's a grin! I can't figure out how to get pictures of Ruby's brand new teeth yet, still too small and she won't let me. I can't believe she got both the bottom ones at the same time and right at 7-months-old. *

Butts up! Ruby's new favorite sleeping position. *

It's so cute to peek in on her curled up like this. But that can be risky, so we try to resist the urge and let her sleep! *
