Happy two months, Lucy!

Today Lucy is two months old.  It's been a busy day that has flown by, as my days seem to do. Lucy has a congested nose and that apparently is kind of scary to a 2-month-old.  I looked through old pictures to see how much she's grown.  Parenthood sure is a timewarp, isn't it?

I am a smiley girl! 

I don't recommend this diet!  I'm supposed to be getting BIGGER!  :)  Mean old 3-month jeans!

Lucy's first real snow.  Thanks to Ellie for letting me borrow this cool hat.



Halloween and other sweets

Pardon the delay in posting, I've had difficulties with the blogspot website, it hasn't allowed me to add pictures or video.  I've tried numerous times and waited and waited and waited without it working.

Anyway...

We had a great Halloween with our little burrito.  Jared was a retired ninja, Lucy a burrito, and I was the burrito cook.  :)   Her costume was first imagined at the hospital while talking with our friend Sara about the fact that swaddles make babies into "baby burritos."  I said it would be funny to wrap her in foil, and voila - this year's costume.  I cut out vegetable shapes from felt and glued them into her hat and seriously just wrapped her, already-swaddled, in foil.  She was a good sport and didn't even fuss.  She loves costumes already.  :)

Lucy is staying awake more during the day and sleeping longer at night.  Hooray!  Just as it's supposed to be.
