Lucy is quite the chatterbox these days. She’s acquired a multitude of new words over the past few weeks and many of her phrases are incredibly cute. Here are a few things coming out of her mouth: fun (and ‘it’s fun’), airplane (replacing ‘plane’), beach, see ya later, sorry, owwie, chicken, hot dog, see it, egg!, down me (i.e. ‘put me down’), no boobie (said to Daddy after some chest groping), alright, thumb, and Idon’twantnostinkingriceandbeansDaddygivemeastrawberrygranolabarnow (interpreted by G).

In other Lucy-news, she continues her streak as a serious carnivore. She can eat an entire sausage/hot dog and regularly prefers meat to most other food. She was a wonderful traveler, all things considered, and took very well to all of my family members. She is VERY into drawing and will make her artwork on paper, people and other objects indiscriminately. Lucy continues to love dogs, and spent last week cuddling incessantly with my mother’s extremely stinky pooch with no evidence that she was off-put by the smell. Perhaps most heart-wrenching is her propensity for cuddling and kisses. I ADORE it when she throws her arms around my neck and pulls me in for a hug. And those kisses. So sweet. Please don’t ever let her grow out of this.

For those of you wondering about the smackeroo reference. Here’s Lucy and Sol a few days before. Lucy seems to like the younger man, so watch out Henry.

Styling
Danika said there would be more photos. And here they are. Although it’s late and I feel like this.

Lucy. Liked. Camping. Dirty for 48 hours. Strange place. Lots to do. New words – “stick”, “tent”, “beer”. Corn on the cob. Didn’t like long hikes so much.
