Photo perfect...

I love this kid...no other way to say it...she is so full of presonality already...Clint and I often worry about we are in store with her when she learns to speak.

I love the roles.....

The perfect mommy/Ruby weekend...

Ruby just had her 4 month check up...and as suspected she is perfect :) She is in the 97th percentile for height and is weighing in at 15 lbs. 3 oz. That would explain the constant back ache...This is her practicing her sitting...She hates the camera...so bare with me :)

Doc said to start her on solids twice a day...well yeah she is not a big fan....

It has been so nice outside lately that we decided to go shopping and accessorise with some affordable but adorable summer sandals....very versatile don't you think?

We managed to get in some tummy time...

This is my all time favorite...I know a responsible mother would discourage there 4 month old from loving the tv but this is how I look at it...it is quality time with daddy...and she is watching food network :)

Finally we would go for walks as a family after dinner...and it all so was nice that the stroller put the little angel into slumber-ville....

Completely adorable...or at least that is what every mom tells her self when there 4 month old is telling her off....

Ruby is blessed...

Oh Ruby...I hope you know how much we love you and how grateful we are for you to be in our family. My eyes filled with tears on this day as I watched your father lay his hands on you and give you a name and a blessing. The sweet words that were spoken were straight from our heavenly father and meant for you!

Sometimes I wake up and wonder how did I get so lucky to have these two in my life!! I am so grateful for a worthy preisthood holder in my home that was able to bless our daughter.

Any one that knows my husband knows a picture with him smiling is priceless...I was behind the camera threatening him...and how cute is Rube's with her monkey...have I mentioned that I totally love her...

And the day would not have been complete with out mentioning Ruby's beautiful auntie that made the dress without a pattern...She spent countless hours on it...each rossettes took 20 minutes and there was 75...did I mention that we love YOU aunt Chony!! And Grandma Green stepped up to the plate and made a beautiful blanket that compliments the dress...Thank you G-ma....we know we ask a lot of you...You always deliver the goods!!

The weekend was truly amazing...we were surrounded by family that traveled long ways to be there and support us and Ruby on her big day...I will update with more pic's when I get them...FAMILY WE LOVE YOU!!

IT's bunny time!!

In preparation for the arrival of the Easter Bunny and all his coolness....Marshall ate...to build strength...
The girls colored eggs...I think the grown ups actually had more fun coloring eggs than the children...

Of course the girls wanted nothing to do with the Easter Bunny and wanted him to stay a safe distance away...oh brother is all I really have to say about that...

Marshall still has this hate/hate feelings toward Ruby...he was quite dismayed when the bunny was holding her...

Getting all these kiddo's to smile is near impossible...

If your wondering who the good sport in the bunny suit is...well in his spare time Uncle Big Al ( my brother) moonlights as the Easter Bunny! He was great with the kids...We love you so much Uncle Big AL!!

My favorite toy...hands off mom....its mine!

Little angel loves her giraffe...IT totally melts my heart when she gets so excited when she sees it and wants it...oh I love her!!

St. Patrick's lucky charm...

Well the luck of the Irish rang true in our home this past St. Patrick's Day!! Ruby has been our lucky charm since day one! She loves her photo shoots!! Hope you enjoy!

One year down....

On Sunday I opened my eyes to see my husband sleeping peacefully with our little angel in between us. Ruby was lovingly punching her daddy in the face. This is way of saying that she has reached her limit on beauty sleep and would like attention! It was a year ago that day that I stood before family and friends and married my best friend. The last year has been a blur! Some days it feels that we have been married for years...But then I get beamed back to reality and realize I have only had my sweetheart in my life a little over a year. I am going on record saying that I am the luckiest woman...Although our life might not appear perfect to those peering in I would have to disagree....I would not change one thing about where we are right now. I am more in love with my husband today than I was yesterday. I can't imagine where I would be today without his constant guidance and love!! Ruby is my little cherry on the top. Although a wee bit of a surprise...she is my little slice of heaven on earth. When bad days happen all it takes is for me to see her smile and realize that life is really not so bad. I love my family with everything in me!! So a year ago I was having the most glamorous night of my life...a year later...some one looking in might think that it is just another day in the life of the Colby's but for me it is another day of perfection!! Happy Anniversary babe!! I can't wait for another great year....
