Good progress this week in the mobility department - Lucy is now able to use her walker very well, zooming all over the house. Grandma's walker doesn't work quite as well, but we suspect it's because it's 30 years old. Still no crawling.
Lucy loves to spend time with her Grandma, loves to cuddle, walk, and take walks, but really loves the extra special love she gets every time they're together.
From Waterville we took a short jaunt to Portland, to spend time with our friend Katy. There we went shopping for the husky-girl car seat that goes up to 32 lbs (with eventual success). Lucy also took her first trip to the ocean! We went to the Portland head light - foggy, foggy, foggy - and to Two Lights State Park which is a great place to see high surf when there's a storm. Lucy slept through a good portion of the trip but woke up at the end to get her first glimpse of a stormy sea.
We finished our time off with our special friends, Crystal and Angie and their kids Kara, Dayton, and Dawson. Here are Lucy and Dawson sharing a toy, and no, the camera is not playing tricks on your eye. Lucy is that much bigger than Dawson right now (about 5.5 lbs). I thought for sure Lucy would be the agressor but while playing in the playpen, Dawson grabbed Lucy by the hair, pulled her over, and crawled on top of her. Lucy didn't seem to mind at all.
All in all a great START to the week that didn't end so well. I came home with a vicious stomach flu (that my doctor thought was appendicitis) and was so sick that Grandma came to Old Town to take care of me. Ah well, summer's right around the corner and there will be plenty of time for washing windows and dusting the corners of the house, right?
