I can't believe that my little firecracker, for that is truly what she is most times, is two! Lucy is a very smart, stubborn, independent, happy, loving two year old!
Some fun facts about our Lucy:
She gets so excited when she sees Brandon come home! She runs and gives him hugs. Lucy also loves to get a kiss from Brandon and shouts "I luv you!" when Brandon is heading off to work.
It is always a race amongst Lucy's older siblings to see who can get ready first to have the privilege of getting Lucy out of her crib.
Lucy is a climber and quite often gets stuck and needs "help." She was pretty proud of the fact that she climbed the fence, but she soon realized she didn't like being up there and wanted me to get her down. She was bugged I stopped to take a picture before helping her.
Lucy's facial expressions crack me up. Her expressions with her eyebrows have been known to get a few laughs!
Lucy LOVES books! Her favorite books are about animals and babies! She loves the book
Brown Bear, Brown Bear as well as
The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry and the Big Hungry Bear. Lucy also likes a book called
Babies. Lucy could read books forever! After we read a book, Lucy tells me more or again if she would like the book to be read again. I love how she walks backwards to sit in anyone's lap who would read to her. We spend much time reading together.
Lucy loves to be outside and play; especially if the big kids are out there. Lucy enjoys her cozy coupe car and riding the other bikes. Lucy is also a big fan of sidewalk chalk. I have had many pretty pictures that Emmy and Lucy have drawn together.
Just recently she has finally let me put her on a swing at the park and do small pushes.
Lucy is fearless...she loves going down the HUGE slides. Lucy also tries to catch other people going down the slides. She will squat and hold her arms together ready to catch the next child. It is pretty funny!
