Home alone

Lucy and I are flying solo this week while David is at a conference. I'm so blessed to have a wonderful husband to help me raise this little girl. I give big props to those single parents out there. I don't know how you do it without going a little crazy!

This past week has been quite busy and not without incident. I locked Lucy and I out of the house last Friday and at the same time I forgot to let Ries back in, so she spent a lovely day outside while I was at work. Luckily David hid a key awhile back so we were able to get into the house without having to break in, although, my mom did give me a few tips on breaking in just in case I needed them. :)

Lucy's grandma and her cousin Peyton came down on Saturday to entertain Lucy while I went to a wedding. It was nice to have a little bit of a break. I love Lucy, don't get me wrong, but sometimes we need our space!

I will try to post a new picture soon, although it will have to wait until David returns from his trip! He took both cameras with him!!

Baby in a Basket!

A picture's worth a thousand words! :)

Crazy!

Lucy is having a crazy hair day today, so I thought I would share!

Mooooove over before I trick you!

Here's Lucy dressed as a cow for her first Halloween.

Nature Lover!

We took Lucy to Nashville and the Brown County state park this weekend. It was fun to spend some time outside on such a beautiful weekend. Lucy really seemed to enjoy being outside. She was so busy looking at everything and everyone around her!

There is a lake in the park with a trail that goes around it. Granny and Daddy took turns watching Lucy sleep while Mommy walked around the lake with Papaw and Daddy and then Granny and Papaw. Once Lucy woke up, Papaw decided it would be fun to let Lucy put her feet in the lake, but he was too chicken to do it himself, so Mommy did it. As you can see from the picture below, Mommy accidentally dropped Lucy in the lake. Lucy doesn't seem to mind too much!

We talked Granny and Papaw into taking a family picture of us!

We also took a picture of Lucy with her Granny and Papaw! It was a fabulous day!

Flower Child

Lucy looked pretty cute this morning in her flower child apparel, so I couldn't resist taking a pic and sharing it with all of you!

Weekend for Firsts

Lucy visited her grandma and grandpa this past weekend as well as her aunt Jen and uncle Ralph and her beautiful cousins Myra, Peyton and Kendel. She experienced a lot of firsts that we documented on camera, so here they are:

Lucy's First Bus Ride!

Update: Some of you have asked 'Where was Lucy going on her bus ride?' Well, she was going to visit the dairy farm! If you haven't been, you really should go! It's quite interesting. Here is a link to their web site: http://www.fofarms.com/ .
