Almost nine months old...

She's a funny little lady. I really didn't expect her to be so dang funny. I knew she'd be delightful (because c'mon, her parents are delightful, am I right?) and I knew she'd be a genius (heh), but I am so surprised at how often she makes me laugh. Sometimes, she gives me this look where her head is pointing down and her eyes are cast upward and then she smiles a little. She has a wry smile. Is that even possible? Probably not. But I'll just live in that illusion for a bit...
I'm just going to put up a bunch of pictures we've taken recently. It's been too long since I've done that.

Lucy & Peter Cottontail

Happy Easter, everybody!

We took Lucy to the Media Center Mall with Lindsay & Iz and had some glamor shots done with the King of Spring, the Easter Bunny.

I feel like you can see a change in Lucy with this shot, from infant to little girl. Bless her tiny heart, every time I look at a picture of her I go back and start at the beginning and look at all of them. She's eight-months-old today and I feel like she was born yesterday. Awwwww, look at that kid! She's delightful. I'm so grateful to have her and her mom in my life. What a lucky guy I am.

The Swimsuit Competition

She sure is a looker, ain't she?

Lucy's sporting the latest in fruit-time swimwear. She took a dip in a friend's pool (thanks M+P) and did great. Hopefully that's foreshadowing because she starts swimming lessons next week. That's crazy, right? She can't walk or talk but she can do the butterfly stroke? I never thought of myself as a "crazy, California type" but perhaps I am. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to print up more of my "Go Green" hemp-ink bumper stickers (for bikes).

Lucy Speaks!

We're about to meet the Easter Bunny when Lucy has a few quiet "Bahs" to share.
