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!

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!

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...
