September and October Updates

Life has been going well for us in September and October. It has been full of diaper changes, eating, sleeping (for Lucy, not so much for us :-) and her newest, smiling. At Lucy's one month check-up, the Doctor's first comment when he entered the room was, "So, I see we like to eat." Thankfully, he was talking about Lucy and not either one of us! Lucy weighed in at just under 12 pounds. Yes, for Lucy, the buffet line is all you can eat. Here are some pictures from the last few months. We hope you enjoy them!

A visit with the Wilsons

One of Eva's Spanish Professors from Point Loma, Jerry Wilson, and his wife Brenda came to meet little Lucy.

Morning Aerobics

Every morning when Lucy is taken out of her swaddling blanket she goes through the process of waking up (which can last up to 30 minutes). Her little routine of stretching, grunting and moaning has become known as Lucy's morning aerobics.

Lucy's first hike--Tipsoo Lake, Mt. Rainier National Park

Loving Daddy!

Tax Deduction

Of course the real reason we decided to have children....

Husker fan?

Lucy's Uncle Aaron is the editor of Husker magazine and so sent Lucy this onesie. Andy is a little concerned that the only Husky stuff she has won't fit until she is 9 months and the brainwashing might already be complete by then.

Sleeping time

Our first family pic

Obviously Lucy is thrilled to be a part of our family.

Meeting Great Grandpa Babcock

Great Grandpa Babcock loved meeting Lucy. He kept smoothing out her dress and asking if she likes to have baths.

Auntie Valerie's Visit

In September, Auntie Valerie came to visit us! She was a great help and it was so fun for Lucy to meet her auntie.

Lucy's Faces

Lucy has lots of different expressions. Here are just a few to give you a taste.
