sheepshearing festival revisited

We went to the Sheepshearing festival at Gore Place again this year. This time we rolled w/a much larger crew. Lucy met up with her cousins, Genna, and Vivi; as well as Max and Sebastian [and all their parents too]



Lucy really enjoyed watching the sheep shearing demonstrations, patting the bunnies, and she loved the big horses. She spent a bit of time listening to the the folk band that was playing some good ole Irish tunes. [Sebastian is still her favorite dance partner.]

Even though all the stuff was fun, I think everyone's favorite part was the kettle corn.

Happy Birthday, Sebastian!!

big sister practice

Lucy is going to be a big sister in October, so she has been practicing.

First, she "watched" Max while the adults were eating dinner. Then, she showed him the ropes around the microwave and puzzles.

A few days later, she went to visit baby Hannah while she was still brand new and in the hospital. She was very gentle with her and loved holding and feeding her.

I know Lucy will make a great big sister!

lucy and sebastian [bffs]

Lucy and Sebastian have had a lot of playtime together lately. First at Sebastian's house, then at Lucy's [where he stayed while his parents were out]. They were both showing off their dimples [though, Lucy's are not quite as obvious as Sebastian's].

If the pictures aren't cute enough, here's a little video of them in action [They had a great time playing with Lucy's vacuum cleaner and other toys while looping around the first floor, each at his/her own pace . . .
