Busy as a Bee

Ruthie has had quite the whirlwind lifestyle these last two weeks. She spent a week traveling around North Carolina (about 900 miles of traveling, to be exact!), visiting Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Charlotte, and Wilmington. She visited lots of Mommy's friends and grandma's friends. She visited her aunt, uncle, and cousins in Charlotte. She saw the house where Mommy grew up, saw Mommy's high school, and met her grandpa Henry. She toured Mommy's university (go 'heels!) and watched her "Aunt" Betty complete a triathlon. She joined in a wedding shower and a knitting group. She thoroughly enjoyed some key Nawth Car'lina restaurants, including Fat Daddy's, Bojangles, and Golden Corral. She smelled an array of blooming azaleas. She waved to ducks at the lake and and ate sand at the ocean. She had her first surprise party and her first cupcake. And that was just the first week!

This past week included a Passover seder, Ruthie's first birthday, her one-year check up, and her one-year birthday party. Phew! Needless to say, Ruthie is taking an extra-long nap at this very moment. She's earned it!
