Lucky

Ruby is ready for a summer picnic!
Just thinking about how lucky I am to spend all this time with Ruby. She is 4 months today.  She is very chatty and growing like a weed.  She rolls over and loves to smile, chat and interact with you (struggling a bit with the fact that she does not want to be put down to play on her own but, I'm ok with spoiling her with attention for the moment). We are healthy- (except for a bit of cradle cap) and super happy.  Summer is here which consists of 70 degree days and rain here and there. I have made friends with the ladies from buggyfit and it really gives me something to look forward to.  We also went to Bookbug this week in a fancy mall with an atrium (houses Jo Malone and other posh shops) - we sang nursery rhymes, heard a story and after had lunch with our friends Kim and her little man Finlay (below) -  Here are some pics from the past week... ;-)

Grandma Suzie and Ruby share bathtime - Grandma Suzie left this past Tuesday. :-(  Thank you for sharing all the lovely times with us this past month - beautiful bathtime, storytime, walks in the park, bedtime and poops.
A day out at Loch Lomand (40 min direct train from our flat) - BEAUTIFUL! and peaceful.




Ruby wears the latest fashion from Boston - the baby Lobster hat!
Last Sunday, we participated in the Race for Life with our Buggyfit friends! :-)  There were over 30 mummies and buggies - we walked at the end of the 10,000 participants and raised money for cancer. The walk went straight through downtown to Glasgow Green park.
Also, last Sunday kicked off the Glasgow West End Festival. Our beautiful Kelvingrove Park was turned into a carnival. I could not resist the pink dolphin balloon.
This week, my friend Claire from London is coming up for a visit. YAY! Can't wait.. I'm hoping we can hit up Jamie Olivers Italian restaurant again (I can't get enough!).
