Ruby Tuby (like Tooby)

Written by Shannon Leigh

When I started hanging around Matt's family many years ago I was super excited that they liked to go boating. I grew up boating and I always thoroughly enjoyed it.

However, I was informed very early on that the Anderson family (all boys mind you) doesn't go "boating" they go "skiing." My bad. They take their skiing very seriously.

They didn't even OWN a tube!

That is until now...

There's something about this little girl of ours that get's her pop to do crazy things.

And just to prove how h-o-t my lover was back in 2004...

Love of Her Life

Written by Shannon Leigh

A few nights ago Matt and I had the following conversation about Ruby.

Matt- "I think I'm the love of her life. I mean I think she loves and needs you but I think she REALLY loves me."

Me- "hmmm, you think so huh?"

Matt- "Yeah, I think she has a crush on me."

Me- "Yeah I think she does, but I think you have a crush on her too."

Matt- "Yeah, I think you're right. I hope I am the kind of Dad that she wants to marry. You know, I hope she wants to marry someone like me someday."

Me- "Yeah, I have a feeling she will."

My husband is HEAD OVER HEALS in love with his little girl, especially since she says "Hi, Dada" every 30 seconds.

I mean who would have thought a 30 inch brown-eyed blonde with rolls would steal his heart?

You know, it somehow makes me love both of them even more.
