Monkey See, Monkey Do!

You guys. I LOVE my little family. So Ruth has really been noticing the little things Brenner and I do and trying them out for herself. For instance, ya know how when you bend over you tend to sigh or let out some sort of grunt? Well anytime Ruth bends down to get a book or toy she grunts like a little old lady and it's such a crack up. 

Ruth update: She gives slobbery kisses, she blows kisses, dances, is trying to walk (and is SO darn close!), waves while actually saying hi-- this kills me because she's such a little person and she is trying to get the hang of this language thing-- she does a fake laugh and a fake cough for attention and thinks she is the funniest little thing since Bill Cosby.. uh poor reference?

Anyway, on a side note, I've just been very impressed by how well Heavenly Father knows us individually. I was having this conversation with a good friend about how ironic life is. There are a couple people in my life right now who I honestly didn't think I'd ever see again after high school and at the time was glad for it. But then BAM they are placed right in my life and now I've grown to respect them and see such a different side of them that I thought didn't exist. But guess what? It DOES! And Heavenly Father knows that and I'm so sad I didn't know it sooner. 

 Also, it's been so fun hanging out with people in our same stage of life and Rachel and Jacob make such great friends! I can't wait for Penny and Ruth to run around together, hopefully not getting into too many shenanigans.

Sorry for the novel!
