Matching Uggs Photo Shoot

Thanks Granny for letting me have the furry boots you don't need anymore because you will be in Florida! And thanks to Granny Lauren for Lucy's adorable pink booties!!

Dipping Fun

I presented Lucy with a bowl of ketchup (thanks for the tip Tara!) and she dipped and munched her mini tofu-corn dogs down happily. It was so fun to watch her eating them. 

Fun in the Frozen Tundra

Erie was beyond freezing this past weekend. We are excited to be going to Florida in a few weeks! Great fun seeing the cousins. I posted a bunch of pics on Facebook too. Busy week and weekend ahead as we press on toward Christmas...

MMM, Pretzels

Lucy loves these honey whole wheat pretzels from TJ's. She also frequently walks up to the gate and points at the tree, her new favorite thing in the house. She's trying to say "tree" but it's more like "eeehhhyy". I guess you need more teeth to make the "T" sound :) She also hangs out by the gate when it's time to take a nap or go to bed for the night. She sees her crib as the land of milk and honey AKA 6 pacis for the taking. She is so good about napping and night time--Jud and I often pinch ourselves that there's no drama. Hooray!

Trimming the Tree

Lucy "helped" decorate the Christmas tree. She is skilled at taking the ornaments off the tree. 

Christmas is Coming

I can already tell it's going to be a battle to keep any ornaments/lights/garland etc. on the tree or decorated anywhere around the house. Lucy found herself an ornament and it was love at first sight. Ditto with the nativity set. We just hope the 1960s retro set is not handpainted with lead paint since she was gnawing on Joseph's head at one point. She loves looking at babies, whether it's pictures of her as a baby or the baby Jesus, she says "BAYYYYY" when she sees them. It's like she hit 13 months and a few real words started coming out. Yay Lucy!

Linus

Lucy was very interested in meeting him and seeing how he liked her carseat!
