For our grannie

My dearest mother, and anyone else who looks at this...
these are the latest and greatest.
This one is my favorite.
Lucy discovered she could also fit into this chair, and when we put Charlie in, 
she wouldn't let us take him out!
I think her little arm started going to sleep, so I tried to move it, 
but she was insistent to keep it there, around Charlie!
She has been SO sweet with him and we are just adoring them BOTH!!!

This is the hospital hat that Lucy had, but that Charlie now uses.
She loves to tote it around the house, and if her head were anymore above 
the 95% for circumference, this would not fit.
(Funny side note...as Charlie was in for his 2 week check, the doc. looked at his 
head measurements and asked if big heads ran in the family? I just chuckled! 
Jeffs "big head" seems to be filled with knowledge, and mine, so far, well, who knows!)
Have I said Lucy LOVES bananas? 
That really was her first word, "nana"! 
(notice her toes in the picture. you can tell she is really trying!) 
This is her latest favorite book. She truly can look at books all day, and I think 
is getting the concept of reading, as she often makes sounds when she flips through them. 
She has been such a great girl this last week. 
It really took some adjusting those first few weeks, but we are slowly getting the hang of things.
AND truly loving our new little family!!!
