First family photo, and a laugh while we are at it.

Well tonight marks the first and last of a few things. It is officially Joanna's last night before school starts. Yep the kids come tomorrow and the craziness begins. It is hard to believe that school is back in full swing and Joanna is heading back to work. So since now that Ruth is at the sitters house during the day, that means Joanna and I fight over Ruth at night. We are on a pretty good schedule considering that Ruth eats between 7:30-8:00pm and then is in bed within the hour and sleeps till around 7am.

We also finally got a family photo, yes it has been 3 months and this is the first family photo that we have had taken.


We also got some good ones of just Ruth.


Of course my favorite photo that we got was just one with Joanna and Ruth. I loved this one!!
My Girls!!

  Of course you cannot forget about Blitz!!

All in all it was a good Sunday. I will have to say it is funny how things work out. Joanna was filling out Ruth's baby book the other night and one of the spots was for her first laugh. We sat and thought about it but we could not pin point when she first laughed. Then the more we thought about it, the more we realized she had not yet had her first laugh. Well that all changed tonight. 

I was playing with her in my arms and bouncing around when lo and behold she started to crack up!! Without missing a beat Joanna and I looked at each other and said "Now that was her first laugh!!" Then Joanna quickly ran and grabbed the camera to see if we could capture it again. Below is what we got.


I will say the video is not as good as the first actual laugh but we did decide that Ruth is going to love going on roller coasters with her father!! It has been a fast three months and we are looking forward to what she does next!
