Lucy is about to turn 15 months old. Miki likes to tell everyone, "Lucy is 1!" It's so cute. She is a happy, bright and hilarious bundle of energy. She loves to climb on things like couches, chairs, boxes and toys. It's crazy to think that if she were like miki she STILL wouldn't be walking! Haha. I don't know how I did that. I couldn't imagine her not walking at this point. She is so adorable it should be illegal. Here are some words that she says: mama, dada, more, thank you, puppy, baby, doggy, ball, yeah and many more that I can't think of right now. She also signs eat, please, all done, more and milk. She can point to almost all body parts on command and she knows who everyone is. She follows directions amazingly. She will put toys away, put her milk cup on the table, bring me a diaper or wipes and all sorts of other things when asked. She absolutely loves to read. By the end of the day our house is covered in books. She will bring me one after the other all day long. I love it. She also adores animals. She knows all the sounds they make and will point to correct ones in pictures when asked. Her favorite toy right now is a baby doll. Any baby doll. She gives them hugs and loves and kisses. She says "baby!" While she carries them around the house. She can sit at the table and feed herself just about any food. She never has been a baby food fan so she has been eating table food since she was about 6 months old. She loves to eat but also still enjoys nursing with mommy. (We are planning on finishing up with that in the next month or so. She doesn't know that yet though, haha.) She is a snuggle bug and loves to sit on our laps and just sigh. She will just chill with you while we read or watch a movie. She likes Dora the explorer and even says Dora's name. She has about 18 teeth. She actually likes to brush them. She also likes to wash hands and clean up. She certainly just loves anything she sees Miki do at this point. She also loves baths and hates when they are over. She has started saying "No!" When I do something she doesn't like or tell her to do something she doesn't want to do. Ah the sassiness. She is also a little aggressive with miki sometimes. She will pull Miki's hair or pound her on the back and Miki will just sit there and say, "stop Lucy!" Over and over again. I am trying to teach miki to just walk away or say no and then remove herself but she usually just sits there. Lucy thinks it's funny. So she is starting to get in more trouble and have to be disciplined. *sigh* Why can't they stay sweet and innocent forever? Nah, that wouldn't make life as interesting as it can be. Lucy just adores Michaela. They love to play together. They color and draw and run around and dance. They giggle and jump and give each other hugs and kisses. I am so happy they both have a sister. They will always have someone besides us to be there for them. I am so grateful. Lucy is so sweet natured. Other kids are drawn to her. Even in public at the play place kids will come up and give her hugs and play with her hair. I think it's her big beautiful eyes. They make her look so sweet and innocent. She also gets upset when she gets in trouble. Her feelings get hurt easier than Miki's. She is more emotional like mommy is.
She is a perfect addition to our family. I am so happy that she is still a bit of a mommy's girl. She is the best and we are so blessed to have her.
