sugar & spice and everything nice...

that's what little girls are made of. Thought I'd share a few recent pictures just to reiterate how completely "girl" this little girl is...



The other night I pulled out a bunch of my bracelets for Ruby to play with...and she ended up adorning her entire arm with them!





Lately she's demonstrated a complete infatuation with any sort of lipstick or gloss. She has learned how to get into my makeup drawer (if she stands on her tip toes), and usually feels around until she's found the tubular container of shimmery lip gloss. She then will hold it up to me and ask (and sometimes even beg) for pretties? After I've applied it, she instinctively begins smacking her lips together. It's a total crack up.
Last night she spotted aunt Julie putting on some chap stick, and without delay, she outstretched her arms while supplicating, pretties?...pretties? Off and on (but mostly on), throughout the night she'd run back to Julie and ask mo pretties? mo pretties? Finally Julie just ended up giving it to her! Can you tell how proud she is, and how pretty she looks, upon receiving her very own chap stick?


By the end of the night, the tube was completely hollowed out. Half of it smeared all over her face...the other half inching it's way through her gastrointestinal tract. Gross. I know.
