what's going on here?

Poor Ruby.
This little person is quite the mystery to her.

She's struggling to understand what exactly is

happening and what her role with this new creature is going to be.

She struggling to understand why suddenly

she's not allowed on the couch as often or why we don't

play with her quite as often as we used to.

Thankfully, Brett is fabulous at spending time

with the dog every night.

Thankfully, Ruby hasn't been aggressive or

acted jealous towards the baby.

She's just desperate for attention from anyone that

walks through the front door.

I can tell she's curious about Charlotte.

Anytime Charlotte cries Ruby

paces back and forth as if to say,

"Do you hear that? What's that sound?"

And Ruby smells Charlotte and her things

(blankets, baby swing, etc) constantly.

Hopefully we can make her see that

Charlotte's just another person here to love Ruby-Roo...

although I have a feeling it will be easier to convince

Ruby of that once Charlotte's out of the

tail-pulling stage in a few years!
