Mother's Day Tea with Clayton

This was probably one of my favorite Mother's Days (so far) because of Clayton's preschool. They do amazing things with the kids for every major holiday and we have enjoyed being a part of their school.
First, the kids sang songs to us ... and they were so cute with hand motions and everything!

Then I got a flower in a flower pot with thumbprint flowers on it (and the flower is still alive!), a paper flower, and a questionnaire about mom. According to Clayton, my favorite food is chocolate chip cookies (guilty!), I clean the house all day, and the activity we do the most together is putting together dinosaur puzzles. It was the sweetest day!

Two Months with Lucie

May 22nd marked 2 months for Miss Lucie. And her newness has not worn off yet!

At 2 months, Lucie....
*Weighs 10 pounds (the little peanut!)
*Is 22 inches long
*Smiles at you, especially with a full belly and freshly woken up from a nap
*Likes to sit in her chair and kick her feet
*Has her Dad and little brother wrapped around her finger (Clayton still want to show her off to EVERYONE we meet, EVERYWHERE we go!
*Loves to sit in Maecie's lap (or at least Maecie like for her to!)
*Sleeps 5-7 hours straight at night, and then falls right back to sleep after eating (and mommy thanks her for that, making life bearable!)
*Is such a joy to our family!

Maecie Sings the Hits!

The next STAR!! (But I might be biased!)

6 Weeks and Growing!

I think there must be something about the 6th week. In the first 5 weeks, Lucie ate, slept, and loaded up some diapers. There weren't many times that she was put down unless she was sleeping. However, during this 6th week, she has been awake more and I'm loving it!

She is now able to lay on the floor and kick her feet without crying. Her features change almost daily and I have to take pictures when I can.

Clayton and Maecie are still in love with her. Clayton, especially, likes to make sure every person we encounter (stranger or not) takes a look at Lucie. "Hey! Would you like to see my baby sister? She is sooo cute! You have to be soft when you touch her though. She is still little.", he says!
He loves laying next to her and talking to her!

Look at that sweet face!!

Gotta show off those adorable toes!!

Yep, we are definitely in love with this little one!!
