Rubie is One Year Old

Rubie turned one year old on 8 August 2008. She is 20 lbs. 2 oz. and 30.5 inches tall. She has such a cute personality. She loves animals. She loves to identify all birds, dogs, cats, trees, butterflies, and the moon that she sees with her hand signs. She also loves to look at books and identify animals and other objects in the pictures. She identifies facial parts on her doll by pointing and then identifies the same part on herself. She is also trying to make animal noises. She tries to moo, oink, bark, and meow. She also makes vehicle noises. She is getting better at being able to play with Eric. Eric still is working on sharing with Rubie, but Rubie is becoming possessive of certain objects as well. The item she is most possessive of is her little doll she is holding in the above picture. But if Eric happens to take from her something she is playing with, she sure lets me know. She has quite a scream. Rubie loves playing outside, going to the park, she loves the swings, she likes to climb up to the highest slide and then we slide down together. She loves to play with other kids. We love Rubie, she is such a joy and so sweet.


We had two birthday parties. One with the Jeppson family and one with the Wilson family. Rubie was fascinated by the candle on her cake, but didn't want to have anything to do with the birthday cake. Although she discovered she likes ice-cream.

Grandma Jeppson had lots of presents for Rubie to open.

Rubie lost interest in opening the presents really fast, but Eric was there to help her out.

She loved all the attention and cute clothes that Grandma Jeppson got for her.

Grandma Wilson had a doll with a pacifier for Rubie. She likes to identify its eyes and mouth.
