Lucy Life...random (cute) photos

YOUR BABY IS 77 WEEKS OLD

Your toddler is probably starting to refer to herself by name - and she’s also starting to understand the concept of “now” (though not other time frames, such as “10 minutes” or “next year”). She’s still busy learning labels for items, which she loves because it gives her an all-important sense of self-control. And her memory has probably matured such that she can tell you about a scene she saw.

Well she cannot say her name but she does point to herself a lot...does that count?  She points out when it's her turn, specifically but if we're doing laundry together and I hold something up and ask her whose it is, she can say and sign "Daddy," she can say "Mama" or she can smile and point to herself...
She does seem to love learning new things and what they are...
As far as telling me about a scene she saw - this one confuses me...does this mean she should be able to speak in sentences?  Because she cannot do that...but when we pick her up from the babysitter's house and ask her what she did she says, "Pooper" to tell us that she played with Cooper or "baby" and "dog" when she's at Tammy's house, where she sees baby Talia and Roxy dog...



She's getting SO good at using utensils!



She's so funny in the tub...often, she likes to wash the baby's hair right after I wash Lucy's hair

The other night I went upstairs to get something from the spare bedroom
so I checked on Lucy while I was up there.
She was laying the wrong way in her bed and her feet were hanging out the rails!
It cracked me up and I risked waking her up to get the photo (she didn't budge).

Sneak peek at one of her Halloween costumes...last year she had 3 and so far this year, she has 2.

This is NOT the one she will be wearing to Uncle Jeff & Auntie Em's Halloween party...

and it probably isn't the one she will trick-r-treat in...

But she'll wear it to Hallzooween and maybe around the house...

Cutest pirate girl I ever saw!

(Got this costume super cheap at Once Upon a Child)

Who wants a pancake?

Last night she was laying on the couch - relaxing and watching Signing Time...

I was in the kitchen getting her things ready for the next day but peeked in and saw this...

I cracked up and grabbed my camera and tried to sneak in but she spotted me...

and yelled "Cheeeeeeese!"
