I have been hassled by many because I have not put up pictures/updates for a while about Lucie. I apologize...I have been just spending all of my free time with her and not online posting info about her. Not a good enough excuse, I know, but hopefully you will not be to upset with me.
So, since you last heard...of course, a lot has changed. Lucie is walking and babbling constantly. Words she says are dada, uh-oh, and duck (this word just popped up on Sunday in the bathtub). We adore her and she gets cuter everyday. She likes to laugh with her mouth wide open and likes to be really silly. She has lots of teeth, which makes for an adorable smile, too. Her birthday was on Halloween, so we had fun with that. She dressed up as a ladybug and opened a couple of presents. She had a birthday that following Saturday and didn't know what to think about the cake...but enjoyed all of her presents when we got them out to play with them.
For Thanksgiving, we went to Minnesota to see John's family. It was nice...and of course, she looked quite a bit different, since the last time they saw her, she was 3 weeks old. She enjoyed turkey and really liked the sweet potatoes. She played with her cousins, Carter and Levi quite a bit. They are as sweet as can be, too, by the way.
We are getting ready for Christmas and are excited to see Lucie enjoy it. I think she will mostly like the paper, but we will still spoil her with gifts. We possibly have our lamest Christmas tree...we chose a pretty small one...5 feet (so I can actually touch the top)...due to lack of space. We also decorated only half of it to keep the ornaments away from Lucie and there was a big hole in the top, so we tied a ribbon in the middle of the tree. It will be a tree to remember, that's for sure.
Here are some pictures of Lucie...enjoy!
