Lucy This Week

I thought we would give you a little glimpse of Lucy's personality these days...

Lucy has always loved her tongue. Now she is really enjoying the different sounds she can make! Watch Lucy's tongue tricks here:

I love this trick. I go around mimicking Lucy all day and am really starting to feel like, just a silly big kid!That is one of my favorite parts of being a parent... you definitely get all that built up silliness out!

With David for a Daddy, Lucy is pretty much always having a blast! If you need some new ideas for play with your baby watch Lucy and her Dad here:


Babies are definitely born with their own personality! Neither David nor I have ever really been thrilled by Mariachi music, but apparently Lucy has a little Latin Sass from somewhere! While flipping through the stations, trying to distract Lucy, we found that none of the stations really did anything, except the Spanish station. She just started moving! For your enjoyment we caught a little clip:



This is pretty much what Lucy is like these days. She also started crawling backward, although I am pretty sure she is trying to crawl forward. The other day she was trying to get closer to me and just kept getting farther. Every time she moved she got a little more upset until she was far away and starting to cry. It was a very funny scene, despite the fact that our daughter was very sad.

We are watching her personality emerge everyday. As much as I thought I liked being a Mom before, I am finding that it is really starting to become an absolute joy! I have moments everyday where I am just tickled by the new skill Lucy Masters or a cute smile she gives me (sometimes I just enjoy it and then other times I run for the camera as you can see). I can't help giving her little hugs and kissing her head all day long! I even wrote a poem about her at 2 a.m. a few nights ago! What a Crazy Mom! Hey when you get the inspiration you gotta do it! And watching your little baby sleep definitely puts me in a "Life is Beautiful" kind of inspirational mood! I am also currently working on a children's story about Lucy. I don't really know how to get published, but after reading Lucy some rather dull stories in my opinion, I thought "I could write one of these!" It is turning out really sweet (maybe I will put a sneak peak up on my blog one of these days) and I am really excited! If any of you are artists and think you could help me out, please let me know! I seriously lack art skills! There are probably 3rd graders who are better than me! Of course, I have seen some pretty bad art in some of these books as well! Anyway, for now...all is well in the Pendergrass Home!
