Happy Friday guys! It was so fun meeting some of you last night at the West Elm party! It was my first fancy night out in two months since Ruby was born. Time has flown by like crazy, and I can't believe she's two months already. Her smile makes my day complete, and her rolls are better than the ones you'd get at a French bakery. Inspired by Nicole, I've been tracking her growth monthly, and can't wait to see them all together in a year. Some of you have been asking…and I swear {swear} I'm gonna post photos of her room after the holidays…the break will give me a chance to finally take some photos of it! Hope you all have an amazing last-weekend-before-Christmas! — Joy

i like how she kicks back. 🙂 adorable!
What a little cutie 🙂 And I love the hot pink flower pin!
Adorable! Will Ruby be adding a pom-pom for every month? 😉
Leah,
Yes! It may get a little crazy by 6 months, but well see! ;P
Joy
the dress in the first photo is amazing, but, of course, she is more!:) so, so cute…
That would be so cute though, because you could put little pom-poms on her shoes and make a pom-pom headband…
How stylish is she? Adorable pictures and it’s always fun documenting the growth of your babies : )
She is so beautiful!
Ruby is so cute!!!
AHH! your comments on her rolls. Sometimes that’s the best part about babies…their chubby little bodies! She’s a doll.
I’m so glad you’re doing this! You’ll love having the pictures to look back at. One of my favorite things to do is to look at all the photos together each month, and now I like to look at August’s vs. Eleanor’s at the same age.
And the pom poms are such a cute addition!
she’s so gorgeous 🙂
So stinking cute!
How cute, Ruby is beautiful!!!!!!!!! What a great idea to make a picture each month, what a pity, I have a little boy who is now 1 year old and hadn’t had this great idea… Have a great weekend!!!!
Hi Joy,
We met last night at the West Elm event with my friend Emily, you were so sweet to take a picture with us. That event was actually really fun! Ruby is SUPER adorable, congrats!
Thanks,

Ruby has the most adorable hair do! Huge change from the one week pic. Wow!
Nicole,
Thanks for the inspiration! Im not the crafty type so I got too lazy to make those fun numbers, so I figured shell just get a new pom pom each month till shes covered in them!
xo,
Joy
Hi Amanda,

That is one cute baby girl! I like how laid-back she used to be when she was a week old.
P.S. Have you seen what this crafty couple did with their baby girl? http://www.younghouselove.com/photo-gallery-2/claras-weekly-photo-project/
Even I get sentimental when I look back on how she’s grown in a year and a half…and I’m just one of their readers!
Thats amazing! And weekly?
