Lucie's New Home

I've moved!

Please find me at "Lucie's House"

All mail will be forwarded from my old address.

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween from our little bumblebee! Ben did put on the beekeeper suit in the back yard, but I don't think he'd appreciate me making those photos public!

Happy 1st Birthday Lucie!

We can't believe where the year has gone! We celebrated Lucie's birthday with KuKu, Medzbaba, Aunties, friends, and a surprise visit from Grandma & Grandpa Revette!

Here is the doggie cupcake before Lucie got to it...

Lucie at the Fellsway

We walked around the Fells last weekend before Ben went mountain biking. Here is Lucie checking out the geese!

11 Months Old!

It is hard to believe that our little girl is 11 months old already! These days Lucie is into everything and anything. She is extremely verbal, even though we're not always sure exactly what she is trying to tell us. She sometimes takes on a lecturing tone and waves her arms around trying to explain to us. She adores dogs and says "dog" (de de de) and "woof" (f f f) whenever we see one. She especially likes reading to us and even better if there is a dog in the book! Lucie also loves giving hugs and kisses...to mom and dad if we're lucky...and often to stuffed animals, photos, books, and just yesterday...a measuring cup!

Happy Easter!

March Birthday Parties!

In March we celebrated lots of friend's birthdays! We got to travel to Syracuse for Iggy's second birthday and to Portland for Wes' first birthday. So much fun!

Iggy blowing out his candles...2 years old!
Lucie playing with her new friend in Iggy's new car!

DeRuyter!

We had a great visit last month in DeRuyter! Lucie learned all kinds of things like "bad cough" how to play the kazoo. Lucie also got to go on her first wagon ride. She especially like it when her grandma rode with her!
Lucie with her friend Meghan...

Walking!!!

Lucie has been taking steps for a few weeks now, but we think this makes it official!

Newburyport Play Date

We got to have lunch at Mary's house in Newburyport.  Here is Lucie with her friends Seamus and Evelyn. 

9 Month Stats

Lucie weighed in at 21 pounds even and 28.5 inches long...hanging strong in the 90th percentile in both height and weight.  At least she is well proportioned! 

Lucie is very busy these days making all kinds of new sounds, pointing, waving, eating blueberries (her new favorite), and taking lots of steps.  Six steps in a row is her maximum without holding onto something so far.  She usually gets really excited and out of control by the third or fourth step...very entertaining!  

Here are a few pictures we had taken today at BRU.  We were selected for a "free" photo session since they were practicing a new line of photos they are marketing called "faces."  Ben wants to know why they "cut off her head" in every picture.  

Lots of Firsts This February

Lucie's first Superbowl...who was playing again?

Lucie's first time snowshoeing...slept the whole time. It was a fun weekend in NH...thanks Besses!

Lucie's first time swimming...she loved it!

Lucie's first time on an airplane to visit GG and all the family in Alabama...
She loved her GG...
And her second cousin Matthew!

So much fun and so glad to be home!

Baby Racing

Lucie and Wes hit it off as usual when we visited the Merrills this weekend.  The moms and dads had lots of fun too...

Meeting Maggie

We were lucky enough to get to meet Maggie Tilden on Friday night. What a little cutie she is!

Lucie and Richard kept busy playing with the "beer box" while the rest of us admired sweet little Maggie!

Crawling is BOR-ING!

Lucie is still doing the "army crawl" but it looks like she wants to move on to bigger and better things!

Happy Birthday Anna!

Just a few shots from Anna's 25th birthday ugly sweater (turned ugly clothing) kegger. Surprisingly...this was NOT Lucie's first kegger or ugly sweater party!

Happy New Year 2009!

Lucie welcomed in the new year with Grandma KuKu and Medzbaba in Cambridge while mom and dad had their first overnight trip for Kirby's wedding! Lucie also pulled herself up for the very first time on New Year's Eve!
