Day 2: We are still cool but she's starting to think we are mean.

 We went to church today and it was interesting to have a 2 year old with us. I wondered did I my Mom have to feed me that many snacks to keep me quiet. Rubi is one busy girl! She loved the old lady sitting next to us, kept loving on her and smiling at her..only to try to get into her purse! We kept her pretty well calm and quiet through most of the first hour, but Uncle Quon (Evs) had to take her out for a beating when she wouldn't calm down. She was screaming so loud outside the chapel that an old man said, "that little baby doesn't seem too happy. She sure does scream loud." Haha!  She wanted the "Hymn Book" that "accidently" fell on the floor when she dropped it, but really she wanted to be running all throughout the pew getting into whatever she could find or touch. I don't blame her she is almost 2. She did better than I thought she would though. Kudos to her parents they are doing a good job!She was happy to be out of the chapel and able to run around. In fact when we did put her down she ran in the direction of the nursery room like she had been there before. It was hilarious! She loved all her new friends.We came home had some lunch, that Rubi refused to eat and threw on the floor, gave her two chances to try and eat it again, she didn't, so off to bed she went. We played games and watched shows and even played dress up. Ru liked to just find clothes in my closet and put them on and all my jewelry too! So we (I) dressed her up and "put on her makeup" and she had a little fashion show. So much fun! She slept through the entire night and woke up around 7, but went back to bed until 8am. When Rubi watches a show she doesnt seem to watch it she roams. So for "her" benefit of staying in one place we strapped her in her stroller and she thought it was so cool. 
For dinner, Ru did a really good job eating all her food. She ate all her chicken, mashed potatoes and asparagus. She was being such a good girl that I let her watch a show right at the table. She was loving that! She got a lollipop for being good!
 Due to a nap incident where Rubi took off her pants and diaper, we took precautions and used electrical tape to secure that the diaper would stay on all night. I wasn't too interested to flying poop and pee all over my room..but of course purely to keep Ru comfortable and warm!
