The most exciting thing to report regarding growth is that there are 4 teeth in Lucy's mouth now. Her bottom two teeth came in 2 weeks apart in December and her top two teeth slowly emerged one week apart in January. The top two are still growing. We think she weighs about 16.5 pounds now.
Lucy is quite vocal. Currently, her most common words are: ma-ma, la-la, ba-ba, ya-ya. We are working on da-da, I think she almost has it!
Lucy has some fun games she likes to play. She raises her arms up above her head, then we do it, then she does it, etc, etc. Typically this occurs at the dinner table and we go in waves, it is pretty funny. She is always pleased with our participation. Lucy always loves to share. Everything she puts in her mouth when I am holding her, she then offers to me. I take a nibble, she smiles, pulls it away and then quickly puts it back toward my mouth again. This goes on and on. She loves to share with dada and Canute in this manner as well. Lucy also growls on demand now, it's hilarious. We growl back and forth. She plays peek-a-boo, she initiates it! She also likes to play "follow each other around the coffee table while crawling" with dada. It goes on for quite awhile. She gets more and more wonderful every month!
We are so thankful to have such a healthy and happy baby. Lucy's only ever had one little supposed stomach bug that lasted a few hours when she was 7 months old and one fever that reached 102.8 degrees and lasted overnight about a month ago. I still suspect I ate something that disagreed with her that caused her to "be sick" with the stomach bug.
