First Day of Pre-School
Well, I brought Lucy to her first day of pre-school 1.5 hours ago and so far I have not gotten a call that I need to come back. I wonder how she is doing!! Well, here are some pictures from this morning.
California!!
Myra noticed that Lucy was really watching her son Nick's every move...and we realized she kinda had a crush on him! Lucy's first crush! Nick was so nice to her and didn't seem to mind all the attention.
Coloring with cousins!
Carolyn made crepes!
at J+B's piano
Reunion with Lucy's RIE class...me serving snack!
We just got back from a trip to LA... I went for 2 weeks, because I was taking a class and then Mike and Lucy came out for 1 week and a half... I was really busy with my class, but it was so great to be staying with Julie and Brian... and to get to see some of my best friends. I was so busy with my class that I didn't get to see all my friends, so that was a major bummer. But I was happy that Lucy got to spend more time with J+B and her Uncle Mike and Auntie Carolyn and cousins Nick and Lexi...although she was later saying Lexi was her sister! Here are some pictures from our trip.

Pre-XMAS!
We had a busy month... Jim and Katie came to visit mid-december, we had a cookie decorating party while they were here, and then we went to Mercer, WI to visit my family and go see Grandma Lucy who I hadn't seen since she moved into the Villa Maria in Hurley.
The final product...Glittery playdough snow man! He did not last for very long because shortly after this photo was taken Lucy's buddy Greta came over and they made other things, like glittery cookies and such.
Lucy likes to help with laundry...she'll even put clothes in and then help change them to the dryer! I think her favorite part is pouring in soap and pushing the buttons!
cookie party madness! Lucy and Greta were pouring sprinkles in cups and then drinking them!! Things got crazy!!
Greta, Olivia, and Lucy at the "toddler table"... Olivia decorated her cookies like a civilized lady while Lucy and Greta were getting totally ca-razy with the sprinkles!
XMAS!
Well, I unfortunately don't have many of pictures of the guests we had, so I'll just have to fill you in. Julie and Brian decided to take a road trip and drive from LA to Austin and were here for 5 days! We had an awesome time! Mostly just sitting around and eating and relaxing and playing with Lucy. We did all (my mom and Grady came to babysit!) get to go out to the Alamo Drafthouse one night to see Sherlock Holmes. It is the best movie theater ever! You can order beer and food and they bring it right to your movie seat! It doesn't get much better than that! And for xmas my mom and Grady also spent the night... We had a full house and a fun christmas morning. Lucy's gifts were left in a bag by the door from Santa, as per her request. She was not cool with the idea of Santa coming in the house... She kept saying "No, Santa is not going to come in the house"...and so we came to a compromise of him leaving gifts at the door! I'll have to post more pictures soon of the pre-xmas festivities and our trip to Wisconsin!

leaves...
Our yard has lots of leaves falling off a big oak tree...so there is only one thing to do, well two. First rake into a big pile...then jump!

Halloween...
Just posting some pictures to say Halloween has come and gone. Lucy actually really liked trick or treating...we were surprised, because she can be so shy with strangers. But the lure of candy broke down all mental barriers! Greta was a ballerina and when Lucy found out about this, she decided she wanted to take off her unicorn costume (which meant she was in PJs) and be a "ballerina" too. She kept saying "Sometimes, other people need to be ballerinas...sometimes". The first pictures, taken in the day, were at our neighborhood halloween block party.

GONG-GONG!
I am posting some more Lucy videos...her favorite joke is adding the word Gong-Gong as a surprise! Get ready for Lucy-video-overload!

Baa Baa Black Sheep...
Goosey Goosey Gander, whither dost thou wander, Upstairs and downstairs and in my lady's...chamber?

Ups and Downs!
Some days are so easy and wonderful to be a parent...and then there are days like...TODAY!!! I'm grumpy and I feel like Lucy was refusing to cooperate with any little thing! I just want to go sit in a corner and rock back and forth!! : ) Ha, I'm just kidding, but it can be so frustrating! Thats why I am starting to think my below post about the Unconditional Parenting book is not possible. I love the idea of having Lucy not feel like my affection is conditional, BUT you can't help how you feel. And you can try and be cool, and try and say things like "I know you want to throw pinto beans all over the floor, but I need you to come get in your jammies" until you just snap and finally pick them up and carry them to their room crying! ...Anyways, I'm to veg-out and watch Glee and So You Think You Can Dance! And once again NOT stick to my weight watcher points!! ...oh, but wait, I hear someone calling from her bedroom...
