New Tooth, New House!

It's been an exciting week in Lucy land. Last Tuesday, Matt was giving her his finger to suck on when she was crying and we discovered something sharp- Lucy's first tooth! It's the bottom front right tooth. Funnily enough, Lucy's cousin Sam got his first tooth when he was almost exactly the same age (apparently the timing for teething runs in families). Since then, Lucy has been munching on her fingers and drooling copiously, but doesn't seem too bothered by her teeth unless she's sleepy.

And now onto the second part of the blog title- we're moving! We're moving about 25 minutes outside of the city, to a new townhouse (there's a great story of God's provision behind this- email me if you want the full scoop). It has 2 bedrooms (Lucy will finally graduate from a nook to a real room!), a finished 3rd floor that we'll use for our office space, and a back deck that looks out over woods. It's also just 10 minutes away from my grandparents. We feel a bit sad about leaving behind the excitement of city life, but are looking forward to being out in nature and to having more space. The move is planned for the end of July- we'll aim to send out our new contact info around then.

Now onto our usual picture fest. Lucy is so much fun- she's been discovering new things every day; most recently she's found her feet. She now grabs on to them and rolls back and forth. She also likes to reach out and touch our faces. Here she is having her first ride in the baby swing.


Lucy in the Johnny Jumper (or Lucy Leaper) that we've set up. She likes standing up in it, and getting to constantly turn around and see new things.


Here she is making her new pterodactyl screech as we like to call it. Very cute- I'll try to get a video of it sometime.


We got to visit my aunt Lee in Concord, NH recently- so nice to see her after a few months, and for Lucy to spend more time with the great-aunt who played such a big role in bringing her into the world!



One more picture of our beautiful little miss sunshine.


And here's another video of Lucy giggling. This time it was me going "Hee, hee, hee" that she found hilarious. :)
