Well, I thought I'd give this blog thing a shot and see how it goes. Hopefuly We'll keep this thing updated with pics and such. Wish me luck!
Lucy is ONE! I can hardly believe it. We had a party for her on Sunday. I think she is still recovering! She had a great time complete with piñata, tres leches, pineapple upside down cake, super cute bday cupcakes made using my Mom's famous chocolate cake recipe,(thanks Auntie Yanne!) molasses and Neiman Marcus cookies.
Grandma Kern has cut Lucy's bangs at least FOUR times since we've been home. She is currently working on tooth #7 and #8. She signs Mama, Dada, milk, drink, more, food. She also says Mama and Dada. And just for the record, she signed and said Mama first:) Lucy is now walking holding just one of my fingers. She also loves this new push, walking toy thingie I picked up for her at a garage sale.
But I can't help feeling indebted to this woman in Colombia, Lucy's birth mom, for giving us such a tremendous gift. Did she feel sad on Lucy's birthday?? How could she not feel sad??? I know I felt sad, sad and grateful. Grateful that we have this wonderful, smart, beautiful, inquisitive, funny and determined little girl of ours. So, THANK YOU Lucy's birthmom.
Happy birthday Lucy!
