Feast

Happy Thanksgiving, faithful blog readers!


Now that we've all enjoyed the traditional culinary banquet, here is a feast of Lucy pix and videos, starting with a few pictures from our trip to Philly earlier in November.

Our little mountain goat. She climbed up onto the suitcase but couldn't get back down.

Like father, like daughter.

Having fun at the hotel. As I recall, we were rocking out singing ABBA's "Super Trooper" at this point.Another picture of our smiley one.
And just so you see that she does have other expressions...

She's quite an eager crawler these days, and can really pick up speed.

We noticed that whenever we brushed our teeth Lucy would climb over and pull up on us, trying to get the toothbrush. So I got her a little toothbrush, which she loves. As soon as we give it to her she puts it right in her mouth and chomps away.

I love this sweater my mom got for Lucy.

And now here are a few videos. Sometimes Lucy has fun making different noises- one of her favorites is the raspberry, which she'll do for a long time, as you can see in this one.

Lucy also plays her version of soccer, pushing something ahead of her and then chasing after it (in this case, a tupperware).

Just this past week Lucy has started climbing stairs (with our close supervision, of course). She also has become even more talkative- lots of "ba, ba, ba's" and "da, da, da's".

Keeping up with Lucy

At least, that's what we've been trying to do, now that she's crawling (or should I say, speeding) around. She can move at quite a good clip, and is keeping us on her toes. She is also now loves pulling herself up onto her knees and feet using any available furniture or surface. I captured one of her first attempts a few weeks ago.

She's much more adept now, and is quite good at balancing and even leaning over to try and touch the floor. She hasn't quite mastered the sitting back down part, though.

Many more pictures to come, once I get them off my camera, including some fun shots from our hotel room in Philly (we were there the week before last for my work conference).
