Can you tell I was getting a little tired of having to hold my baby all the time to keep her from crying, since it came up in two consecutive posts? I guess that's what I get for not rereading something I posted 9 days earlier.
Ruth is playing happily on the floor as we speak, so my arms and back are enjoying a much needed rest. Hopefully I can move on to more interesting topics soon. On the down side, that baby is getting a little too mobile for her own good. She's not officially crawling, but if you take her socks off and roll up her pants so the legs don't trip her up, she makes a solid effort at it. And with a combination of army-crawling on her tummy and shoving her upper body forward into a face plant from a crawling position, she makes some very real distance. I'm going to have to get out the fence thing we used to contain Marianne at that age soon.

Actually, that new one is uglier. It used to be cuter when we were kids, but still ugly...
Being a parent is hard! I've heard that from people I've worked with.
C'mon, Staci, it really wasn't that bad! I'm jealous though that I wasn't among the non-parents to be able to hold Ruth for an extended period of time. I think Sam and Andrew tied for that honor.
Glad you made it home safe and sound. renee
