Best Friends

Kai and Ruby have decided that they really like each other.  They reached this realization this month, and are now pretty much inseparable.  Ruby is 16 months, and Kai is 3.5, and they are now best buddies.  It's pretty much the cutest thing ever. 

Kai loves for Ruby to "sit in his lap," which is pretty silly looking since she weighs 23 pounds and he weighs 26.  But, it's what they do.  They love playing in their play kitchen together, and can read books together for a remarkably long while for two toddlers. 

Here they are at the mall yesterday in one of the "ride-on" race cars.  I love the way that Ruby has her arm around Kai from the beginning.  And the cutest ever was when Ruby got scared because the car started tilting and shaking, and she hid her head in Kai's shoulder and gripped his shirt as hard as she could.  Don't worry...I "rescued" her right after I snapped the picture.  :)
