Big sister moments:
- Every day Lucy asks to hold Charlie. She calmly tries to soothe him when he cries...but when that doesn't work, she says "ok, your turn". You better be ready to catch Charlie because she's outta there!
- First thing in the morning she'll ask to see Charlie, and she includes him when listing things about our family (so at least she's not trying to run him out of town).
- She very sweetly asked me during his diaper change: "Should I step on him?" Mom tried to remain calm.
New skills and activities:
- We are thrilled that the trails are dried out and ready for hiking. Lucy loves going on hikes in the "mini-mountains". She notices every single little detail, which is cute at first, until she's collected her 20th pine cone.
- The day I feared has arrived: she knows when I take a shortcut on her Berenstain Bear books. We're talking the minutest of details.
- Lucy has really gotten into singing songs and listening to music. She will make up new verses to her favorite songs. Our new favorite verse is "have you ever seen a Dad, drinking his beer, down by the bay!"
- Socially Lucy really enjoys playing with her friends. Everyone is a friend and she wants to know everyone's names. Most of her friends are little boys, and they all respond really well to her. Their rowdiness seems to meet her calm/silly nature half way.
- Self play-This has always been a strong point for Lucy but she continues to do very well (too well in fact) with reading books for hours on end. At times she tells us to leave her in her bed after her naps because she's still busy reading.
