Lucy is getting to be such a big girl! Although, sometimes she tends to act older than her 19 months. I think she's trying to catch up to Mommy! She really enjoys trying to walk around in those heels.
She's also a girl who knows what she wants RIGHT NOW! As illustrated below she knows she wants french fries and she knows right where to go to get them.
Lucy just won't settle for being the "baby" or the youngest. She's got to do what Tyler does all the time. It drives him insane, I'm sure. Here she is trying to play t-ball...because Bobo got to do it too.
Lucy really is growing up so fast. She speaks in pretty full sentences, she comprehends EVERYTHING (except maybe NO!) and she acts like a terrible two year old some of the time. Lately she has been learning the art of manipulation. If she gets in trouble for something and we say, "No Lucy!", she will look at you and smile and say, "Hi Mommy" or "Mommy's eyes" and try and detract from the trouble she was getting in. Oy!
The sweetest thing that lil' Miss Goose does is say thank you all the time. She's very polite and thanks you for everything...when you clean her diaper, when you wipe her nose, and when you hand her milk. She always says, "Thank you Mommy" and then sometimes follows with "welcome" too. But then the not so sweet thing...she interprets the song Skip To My Lou My Darling to be Poo, Poo Darling. :( And wouldn't you know...Tyler encourages her to say that.
Tonight we wish we had the video camera on. Lucy wasn't really diggin' on Mom's spaghetti and she thew it all over the floor. Zach got upset and told her to stop throwing her food on the floor or she would have to clean it up. She said, "NO!" and he asked who would clean it up then? She said, "Mommy"...with a smile. I guess she knows how it goes around our house...
