Lucy's New Favorite Word is...

Da-Da! Though her mommy is a bit jealous, she's excited to hear her little one's rapidly expanding vocabulary. In addition to A-Ba (Lucy's favorite word for weeks and weeks), we now say Da-Dad-Da-Da over and over again. And even though it's probably wishful thinking on her mommy's part, she thought she heard a "ma-ma" as well. Jamie and Jennifer are quite confident that they have a future linguist on their hands. If not a linguist, then perhaps a reporter. Lucy's definitely a nosey, talkative little girl!

In other exciting news on the baby front, Lucy had her 6 month check-up last week. She's now in the 98th percentile for height (28 inches!) and in the 66th percentile for weight (16.97 lbs.). She's quickly outgrowing her clothing. Jennifer sees a future of high-waters for poor little Lucy. Overall, she's a happy baby girl who never meets a stranger. Right now, her favorite activity is jumping in her rainforest jumperoo. She LOVES this contraption, and begins jumping the minute her parents put her in it. Jamie and Jennifer wake up and go to bed with the sounds of laughing monkeys, a wailing elephant, and a catchy little keyboard tune playing over and over again. Good times!
