Here's the writing now:

Lucy is just adorable. I will just put that completely unbiased statement out there. She is starting to put two words together. This morning she has already starting saying the cutest things. I was in the bathroom and so I had put Molly in the jumper next to where Lucy was playing. After about a minute, Lucy came and grabbed my finger "Mom...pull (she was pulling my finger, and then she brought me over to Molly) "Molly...sad!" Aww. She is looking out for her little sister.

Then she was walking with her bowl of dry cereal in the hallway upstairs and she spilled a little and as she bent down to pick it up she spilled the whole bowl. "Uh-oh!" then She proceeds to sing the clean up song "Clean up! Clean Up! Everybody, everywhere! Clean Up! Clean Up! Everybody do your share!"

And as I was eating my bowl of cereal, she came up and tagged me! "Tag!" she said with a smile and started to back away.

And since I am bragging about my child's developments I will go ahead and say that she loves to count. She is pretty good, mostly in order at counting to 10. She counts everything, the crayons she is coloring with, the shapes she is sorting and the steps as she goes up and down. It's really cute. She will even interupt me when I am singing the alphabet song and start to count. Seems like she has Jon's genes for math in her, I alwayss preferred English in school. Time will tell if Molly has my genes.

We did mani/pedis! Lucy LOVES getting her nails done. I bought the 50 second express finish maybelline nailpolish for her stocking gift at christmas and it's been fun because it dries so quick we have (generally) been able to get her nails to dry before her little fingers close into her fist with excitement.

I am also posting the start of our Valentine celebrations. We melted down some of Lucy's scraggly crayons and made heart crayons! I think I liked them better than she did.

Also, I have been making bibs (a 5 minutes project turned 2 weeks). But I am finally done! I finished while the girls were taking a nap so my good husband modeled for me. :)

:) And as usual life is good.
