Silly Lu Girl

We just love our little Lucy to pieces and she is getting more and more fun everyday. I thought I would share some fun things about her today and of course more pictures! Here are her 6 month stats, even though she is currently 7 months old. When we took her in for her appointment she had jumped from being in the 50th percentile to the 75th percentile for all her measurements! She was 26.5 inches long and 17.4 lbs! Yowza girl! She's definitely filled out in the past few months. I just love munching on her chubby little legs and buddha belly. She doesn't really have a chubby face but her double chin does come out to play on occasion, as shown in the picture below.

Her hair is filling in a little more too. It's still very peach fuzzy but there is more fuzz to play with! I love rubbing my chin across it when she's sitting on my lap. She had her first hair cut last week! And when I say hair I literally mean 1 single hair. She had one freakishly long strand that had to be trimmed.

Her favorite things to play with/put in her mouth lately is anything paper, plastic, metal (ick!), zippers, and the drawstrings on hoodies. Whenever she is rolling around on the floor playing with all her stuffed toys, the first thing she'll go for is the tag.

Here she is chewing on the metal handle to the toaster oven

Goin' for the tag

You can kind of see her chubby belly & legs here. She's practicing her yoga moves.

She loves giving kisses. They are slobbery and open-mouthed. She'll give them to mom and dad, her stuffed animals and doll, and herself (the mirror).

Here she is going in for a kiss...

Her doll came with a binky which Lucy likes to steal and put in her own mouth.

Our friend Kate gave Lucy an Uglydoll for Christmas, isn't he awesome? His name is Poe. Lu loves to chew on his horns.

She still has her pretty blues.

She's loving her food these days. She's eating all sorts of food. Still loves the bananas the best. I fed her the Gerber macaroni and cheese dinner a few nights ago and she didn't know what to think about it. It smelled awful! Now when I go to the store I try to get the weird stuff just to see Lucy's face. Haha, I'm such a mean mom. I've learned that I can mix something she doesn't like with bananas and she'll dig on it.

We still feed her in her bebe pod chair but it's about time to get a high chair. I keep checking Craigs List because high chairs are so expensive these days! What's up with baby stuff being so expensive?? I would really like to know!

Luce is a lover of rolling, looking out the window, looking in the mirror, going for rides on mom's and dad's shoulders, and talking. She's says dadadada and mamamama and kind of mixes it up sometimes too. She loves jibberjabbering when we start talking. She definitely wants to be in on the conversations. She can get quite vocal. :)

We've been experimenting with things that make her laugh. It's quite entertaining. Trey has this little voice he talks to her in and she gets a crack out of it. She has this high pitched squeal that comes out when her and daddy wrestle. It's pretty darn cute. I'll have to post a video of it sometime.

We finally got to the point where we just lay her down and she goes to sleep! It's soooo nice! No more rocking her for like 20 minutes until she goes to sleep, yay! She's our good little napper/sleeper.

So there you have it. That's our Lucy in a nutshell as of late. She's our little ball of energy and fun.
