FIRST DAY OF FALL ???

Although it started out like a fall day, as all days do now, it ended up hot and sticky like the end of summer. Lucy started her day off yesterday with her first trip to Wee Disciples play group at our church and she had a ball. She was the youngest of the 10 kids there but you wouldn't have known it. She sang her ABC's as loud as anyone and did her crafts and numbers just as well. I have to say even I was impressed with her behavior. She listened to each story and lesson very well.

The evening was spent playing in the yard with a beach ball and bat, and if she wasn't hitting the ball around the yard (like a golfer rather than a baseball player) she was trying to wack somebody with the bat. She thought it was hilarious and we DID fuss at her and make her stop, but even my mother-in-law would tell you that it was hilarious when Lucy nailed her right in the rear end . . . and hard . . . with the bat. She also spent a lot of time on the swingset with one of her many "Baby Tella's" (Baby Stella's . . . her name for nearly every baby doll in the house, named after her big cousin Stella who she doesn't get to see too often but she still talks about all the time)Then Grandpa Steve came out to visit and he and Lucy got all dolled up in her 'earrings' (which are really little plastic bracelets) and pranced about the house. Too funny.


" I pretty Mommy?"


The next Tiger Woods of goofy golf.



Running races between our house and Pop & Momma Jo's . . . one of her favorite outdoor activities.



"Mommy watch me and Baby 'Tella"

(Don't worry Emily, she doesn't name them after who they resemble, every baby is Stella, Mack, or Jackson. If we were naming this one after who she resembled it'd be Baby Albert Einstein.)
