Our night owl

Since the first night we brought her home, Lucia has been the funniest and most engaging from about 9 or 10 to 11:30 or so. Last night she stayed up with sach & I and between nursing on the couch (wedged between us, legs up on Sacha) she... Helped Sacha finish a bowl of noodles with chopsticks, played peek a boo from behind the couch, took out and put back countless toys from the cradle we have by the couch, escaped to indias room to try to wake her, played wahwahwah with me and then with sach ( we put our mouths together and one person sort of hums and the other opens and closes their lips making a funny wahwah sound- she cracks up and then kisses us), tickled her papa, attacked both of us, nursed more, sat up and laughed instead of falling asleep, got her diaper changed AGAIN, talked and sang, threw her head back so we would both tickle her chin, laughed, pressed her cheek to sacha's chest while she hugged him... Finally nursed & fell asleep for the whole night.

hand holding



they walk around the house holding hands and laughing/yelling

yay!!!


This was when she really started standing on her own without holding on to anything. India kept yelling, "look!!!!" every time so we would not miss it.

tiniest princess leia




it really turned out great, especially the buns/hat but she REFUSED to wear it. We even tried to bribe with ice cream, no luck.

Walking!

Yesterday she really started to walk alot- not just a few steps but walking all the way across a room & you can see how delighted she is with herself. It's great. India was cheering for her & clapping, lucia was grinning and squealing. It was pretty great.

Lucia Imelda & India Maryjane

we got the names all wrong. Who knew they would both L O V E shoes so very very much. Lucia is constantly trying to put our shoes on. I need to get some pictures. You should have seen her in India's patent leather hot pink mary janes. Sach put them on her, she was SO happy

Seriously

There's not a whole lot of time until Halloween. India is planning on dressing as Minnie mouse (!) but WHAT should Lucia be? Last year she was sashimi. It will be hard to top. Suggestions?

Baby

In a few days our baby will ne one year old! I can't believe how much she changes every week. She was playing last night after India went to sleep - jumping, trying to crawl over to indias bed, laughing & yelling. She climbed onto Sach & bit his belly several times & would look up at him to see him laugh. She has a great sense of humor. I love it. We love her so much. When India sings patty cAke Lucia claps! She loves to walk holding onto her bike or a baby stroller OR her highchair. She pushed it all the way to the front door. The other night she climbed up onto the couch next to India and laid back and crossed her legs. She knew it was funny. She is such a sweetheart.

Maude & Lucia, bff






they were having so much fun today! Maude was feeding her cheerios. It's the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Obviously.

bookworm


she loves this book, I think Claire bought it. He's an amazing artist.
