Siblings

One of the images where Lucy is not trying to carry the baby or put him into his swing (yikes). So far Judson is the exact opposite of Lucy. He would nurse all day and all night if I'd allow it...it kind of feels like I am doing that now, especially the all night part! He can sleep about 3-4 hours at a time but most of those times seem to be during the day of course. I know it won't last forever! Off to Lucy's 2 year checkup, and then I can post her stats and pics from her birthday party last weekend.

Polo Outfit

Here's Judson modeling his new outfit from Aunt Laura. He was not feeling too photogenic during the shoot. Hilarious!

Whistle While you Work

We have so many hardwood floors in the new house, the Swiffer is becoming our new best friend. I'm trying to con Lucy into thinking that cleaning is fun.

All Rules Are Gone When Baby 2 Arrives

Lucy gets to eat ice cream for dinner. With chopsticks.

Eyes Open!

Thanks for taking such a cute pic aunt Stacey Pfarr!

Getting Acclimated

Lucy has done surprisingly well given the multitude of changes!! She finally escaped from her crib this week and we just put the toddler bed into her room and it was no issue whatsoever. In fact, this morning she slept until 7:30 which may be a new record. Judson has also been doing well since we came home from the hospital on Monday. He is a champion nurser--if he had his choice he would eat all day and all night long! He's been spitting up a bit however and we are hoping he grows out of that soon and learns when to say when :) We are going to attempt to put him into his crib tonight for the first time after 2 nights in our bed--don't want to get into that habit as an every night thing. First doc appointment went well today. He is gaining weight on target and is about 50%th percentiles on his stats.

Welcome Judson Thomas!

Judson Thomas Allen arrived on Oct. 10 at 1:06 pm! So, during the past week, we have packed our townhouse, moved out of it on Friday and into our new house, had the baby and Lucy has moved into her big girl bed! It has been nonstop to say the least. Thanks to everyone for your good wishes and apologies if we've not gotten back to you--we will--come by the new house whenever. I am not going anywhere for the rest of 2009!

Ready for Sibling

Lucy has become entranced with all the baby items I've dug out. She loves sitting in the Moses basket and infant car seat. I just hope she doesn't sit on the baby when he or she is in there!! You can also see her "boo-boo" covered legs. Lucy is fearless at all parks, places where she can swing, you name it. Just about every night she points out a new boo boo to me.

Hotel Fun

This was taken when we spent a night in Va Beach at the Hilton before our Nag's Head trip. Lucy LOVES hotels. Running down the halls, big beds, TVs everywhere. Here she is lounging in the big bed nude ("newt" as she calls it) watching Sprout.
