Lucy turned 2 (in May)

I have not posted any pictures of Lucy's birthday yet because I don't have any pictures of the other party. They are all on my mom's camera. One day I will get them.

Lucy woke up to a birthday candle in her cereal. Then she got to go to Toys 'r us and pick out a toy. She picked a princess lawn chair (the girl is obsessed with chairs!). We hit Rumbi's with dad for lunch where he surprised her with balloons and more goodies. We took naps and woke up when daddy came home. Then we played with some new toys until her grandparents showed up. It was really nice and relaxing to have just her grandparents here on her birthday. She had full attention and LOVED it. I think we will be doing this every year. We had pizza and cake and played the night being entertained by Lu.

The big party was a few days later and hopefully I will post pictures of that soon. Happy Birthday Lucy, we love you to pieces.

Baby Sophia

We are sure loving having another cousin around. I was lucky enough to witness this little girl enter the world. It was an amazing experience and I am thankful I was able to be a part of it. So far she has been a dream baby. She is so beautiful and has Melissa's lips...lucky girl. Congrats to Melissa and Kelly. I love the bottom picture of Lucy showing off her belly button to Sophia. One day Sophia may actually interact with Lucy. I know Lucy can't wait.

White

This summer Lucy's hair has turned White. Crazy thing is mine was even a brighter white when I was her age. Isn't she the cutest?

14

The number of articles of clothing lucy had on her body. WOW girl. When I said go get your shirt on, you really got it on!

Big Girl Bed

Last week Lucy got a big girl bed. She LOVES it. We transitioned her crib to a toddler bed a few months ago - that transition was HORRIBLE. This week was a breath of fresh air and we are all sleeping a little bit better. Lucy even slept until 7:15 this morning. Wahoo! It is wierd to think we are almost done with the major transitions with this girl. The next battle will be potty training. I guess we'll see how it goes!

Ladybug!

Lucy watched over her ladybug for over an hour. It was a dream come true to have her own bug. She really does love bugs.

i love to see the temple...

...and so does lucy.

Bloody Nose

This is what daddy does when he has a bloody nose. Well, I have caught Lucy many times stuffing tissue up her nose. So far we have been able to get it all out!

'Bobbies'

Lucy is obsessed with her 'bobbies'. She takes one (or two) with us every where we go. Sorry if we offend anyone by carrying naked barbies around, but that is just how she likes them! Thanks to my mom for keeping all of mine to use. Not sure we can afford this habit yet - the good ones are expensive.

Presents in bed.

This is Father's Day. We always get to open our presents in bed. Lucy loves when it is a special day and we get to take presents to bed to open.

Babysitting

Lucy told me she was 'sitting'. I don't ever remember wearing red sunglasses when I was babysitting.

Sprinklers!

Lucy can't get enough of the summer play. We are slippin' and slidin', swimming, running, riding, exploring new parks, camping, going to the lake, having picnics, and eating lots of Otter Pops. This is the first summer I think I have enjoyed this much for a long time. I love watching Lucy soak it all in. She is just like her mama - a summer girl!
