Sweet Foof

Our dear Ruth is now 8 months old and is also officially crawling.  I add the qualifier “officially” because she’s not fast, efficient or reliable, but she’s doing it!  In other words, I have observed her move each hand independently and each knee independently and move forward in this way, but she still seems to prefer the little toe-thrust tummy-scooting for major endeavors!

 

Also, she now has four teeth as the second one on the top has just broken through this week.  She had moderately fussy days on Sunday and Monday, so I’m guessing the tooth was to blame.

 

Luke and Emma are enjoying her a great deal.  She sits up in her highchair right along side of them and eats whatever Cherios make it to her mouth while they have their meals.  I often find all three playing together.  Today, Luke and Emma were making block towers and their little Foof was right in there with them, laying on her tummy nearby and gnawing on a block.  When I bring her in to their room at night to put her in her crib, they say, “Thank you, Mama!  Thank you for brining Foof to us!”
