A day with Ruby

I have a new job. It's just temporary, but I think I'm gonna like it!



I will be watching Ruby on Tuesday's til my bro and sis-in-law find a regular sitter. Yesterday was my first day. I haven't really gotten to spend much time with her the first 5 weeks of her life, so I wasn't positive how she would take to me. Thankfully, she's been held by a lot of different people and probably thinks we are all the same one and didn't seem to mind.
She started crying while her parents were getting ready to leave. She was very tired and fights going to sleep like crazy. By the time they left she was ready to eat and take a nap.

We had a great day! No major problems. Just the normal eat, sleep, change diaper, etc. She's so sweet!! I'm sure all aunt's think this of their newest niece.

I'm still coming to grips with the fact that my brother is a dad. For some reason this is harder than my sister's being mom's! Maybe it's because he's the youngest. Or maybe it's cause he looks like Howdy Doody. Or maybe it's just because I'd conviced myself it wasn't ever gonna happen to them. Anyway, when I see them with her I'm so happy for them, and for all of us!

And then I get to go home and get a good nights sleep! I love being an AUNT!!!!!!
