Lately

I can't believe I haven't posted these yet, but Lucy got her ears pierced for her birthday (I know her birthday isn't for a few more weeks but she has literally been begging since she turned 2, so last Sunday Mark and I caved and took her. Atleast it was her birthday month...)

I told her it was going to hurt, so she knew this ahead of time.

After the after:

Aren't they cute?? But can we say DRAMA??! She's pretty tough so I'm surprised she cried that much. After the initial shock of it wore off she was fine and she absolutely loves them now.

We spent most of the week with our favorite cousins. Mostly we swam, played, and ate. And ate some more. We so enjoy spending time with family. The kids turned into little fishies with all the swimming. I can't believe how far Lucy has come this summer.

Babies lounging in the pool...

Here's a video of Lucy jumping off the diving board by herself. She later jumped in without the noodle, but I made her use the noodle since I wasn't in the pool with her. She's gotten so brave!

And just because she's so stinkin sweet...

This summer is flying by! Lucy's 4th birthday is right around the corner, and we are only 13 weeks away from meeting our third baby girl. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? P.S. we still need a crib, and need to completely move Annie into Lucy's room. If anyone has the energy to do those things for me I'll reward you with....well....a pat on the back. And maybe a yummy dinner if I'm not puking that day and am able to cook. Any takers?? No???
