A playdate with pals...plus some playing in bed!

I stuck Lucy in the swing at one point for a few minutes...and both babies also wanted to give it a try!  Lauren especially loved it, saying "wheeee!" as she swung back and forth!
Lucy and EJ had fun playing with her ball popper!
Lucy really enjoys playing in her bed...we play in her room every night while I pick out her clothes for the next day and get out her pajamas...sometimes I want to get my clothes ready for the next day, too, so I put her in her crib while I got across the hall to iron and she loves it!  I sit her down but she pulls herself up to standing and walks around and sometimes jumps, which is her new favorite thing to do.  She loves the mobile and the "tv" as daddy calls it - the little underwater scene that plays music and lights up and is attached to the side of the crib.  It has three buttons on it to play different songs and she enjoys "channel surfing!"

There have been a few times over the past several weeks where Lucy has stood or walked a few steps on her own without realizing it.  We have two little ottomans in the middle of the living room for her to play on and walk around and she's walked from them to the couch without holding onto anything...but last Tuesday, when I got home from work, she walked several steps from her daddy to me!  Dave and I are so proud of her, but she might be even more proud of herself!

She hasn't learned any new signs but continues to use the ones she does know frequently.  She still says "duck" and she says "dog" and if we ask her where her belly is, she pats her belly!  If we ask her where her foot is she lifts her leg...too funny!

Lucy has a busy weekend coming up...a visit from her godmother, Aunt Amy, and birthday dinner for Grandma Terry on Saturday then A's birthday party on Sunday!
Next Saturday she starts swim lessons at Silverlake!!
