Lucy- 28 months

Lucy is full of energy. She bounces around the house all day. She loves to dance , jump, climb, and run.

Lucy is a helper. She insists upon helping to load and unlaod the washer/dryer, pour food out for Marty, and "clean" house. When she sees me performing such tasks she looked at me and says and signs "I help".

My girl loves to feel like a "big girl". She begs to put on chap stick and wants Momma to dust her face with makeup brushes because it tickles and because she watches Momma.

Lucy's preferred toys are baby dolls and dolls from her dollhouse. She loves to push her baby in the stroller or shopping cart we have. She loves to be outside, finger paint, and follow Mommy/Daddy around the house. She learns by watching and doing.

Lucy's hair is getting so long. The longer it gets, the more momma learns about caring for her hair. We recently bought a sleep cap (which she pridefully wears) to help protect her hair at night. Lucy is learning to sit still for "hair day" while watching a show and eating snacks as Momma styles her hair once a week.

Lucy loves to say "cheese" and take pictures on my phone as long as she can see herself while I am taking them.

Lucy is obsessed with Fiesta Time (our favorite restaurant) and church. She requests to go to both places regularly. She also has a couple of friends and cousins she talks about a lot.

In the month of February Lucy started getting herself undressed in the mornings after she woke up. I found her like this many times. One time she was without the diaper as well :/ Thankfully this has stopped.

As silly as Lucy is at home, she is exactly the opposite in public. She is so bashful. Rarely making eye contact or speaking. Usually just as we leave from a store or talking with someone she will say "bye bye" when no one else can hear her but me. Lucy is sensitive too. She is easily upset if she is told no or that she needs to make a better choice. But, she can also be very stubborn, especially at meal times.

Lucy reminds me so much of myself as a little girl. Silly at home, bashful in front of others, dramatic when things dont go her way, and eager to learn and help. Im so thankful God blessed me with my Lucy Jane.
