Trying to Crawl?

Lucy appears to be making her first motions toward crawling. From a sitting position she tries to lunge forward. She doesn't quite have swinging her legs under her mastered. So, she's not getting very far, but it's still pretty darn cute. Here is a video:

Saturday Morning Team

Great news for our family: Andy has switched his work schedule and we get weekends together! Here is a picture of the team assembled this morning. It's a rare sighting for Paco (the cat) and Mainerd (the dog) to gather peacefully:

Also, here's some videos of Lucy playing:

Lucy's first trip in a shopping cart!

About a week and a half ago, Lucy had her first trip in a shopping cart.  Here she is perusing Target's finest:

Grammy!

Last week we had a wonderful visit with Andy's mom, known as Grammy.  We had such a great time and Grammy must have brought the sunshine to Portland! We went for a walk through the rhododendron gardens, drove around and looked at houses,  and enjoyed some fun dinners out together.

Best of all, it was so fun to see Lucy with her Grammy! Lucy's become very energetic and likes to bounce and climb whoever is holding her, Grammy included.  Here are the two ladies taking a quiet respite from playtime:

Happy Mother's Day!

I am having a great first Mother's Day.  I thought Andy was going to work, but after leaving he surprised me by coming back with flowers having taken the day off.  After the flower delivery, he took me and Lucy to brunch. I hope the other mom's out there are also having a happy day!

They See Me Rollin'...Part 2

With no second roll for many months, Lucy amazed me yesterday by remembering her old trick!  Lucy is now able to roll off her tummy when she pleases, which is pretty much whenever we put her down that way.  Here she is...the one, the only, the amazing Lucy!:

Cousins!

Last weekend Nana came to visit and we took a roadtrip to Redmond.  Lucy got to meet her new cousin Reese and see her cousin and old buddy Henry.  Reese is such a sweet little love of a baby and Henry is so much fun! We had a great time with him as our band leader playing toy instruments and watching him be a fireman "saving people and cats".  The kids got their picture taken at JC Penny's to commemorate the weekend...priceless!

Also, Lucy and the other grandkids loved playing with Nana.  Here is a picture of Nana reading Lucy her bedtime story
