1 month old

Beatrice turned one month old today.
Yes, I am carrying on with the t-shirt pictures.

cousins' visit

We had a fun visit with Vivi and Henry yesterday [Genna opted to stay home and rake leaves with Daddy]. Lucy was a very gracious host and shared her baby sister with her cousins.

The last time they visited Lucy was very protective and would not let them near Beatrice. She went into karate mode stiff arming and kicking them away.

Thank you, Kristen, for the big girl outfit.

slide, slide, slide

We have been trying to get Lucy to go down the slide all summer long. For whatever reason, she had no interest in it. Until . . . this week.

Maybe she was waiting for the right time? Maybe she was showing off for her little sister? Who knows. Anyhoo, she finally went down the slide and LOVED it! She went down every slide in the playground - big and small.

Grampy took her a few days later and she was just as interested in the slide. Grampy had his new camera and got lots of cute pictures of Lucy and her new found love.

big sister

Lucy finally met her little sister, Trixie.

She loves to hold her, kiss her, and help out as much as she can.

Lucy is a great big sister!!
