Lucy is 4!

There's so much to catch up on!  Especially when I remember that this blog serves as our photo book and our family journal.  I'm missing a lot! 
Let's start with Lucy's birthday.  She turned 4 on December 10!  It really does seem like we were just bringing her home from the hospital and settling in for a cold, snowy winter.  She sure has turned out to be a spunky one!  She has a quick smile and a wonderful ability to play all on her own or to keep up with the big kids.  She's good with "girly" things or trucks and nerf guns.  She sings a lot and keeps us all laughing. 
As is usually the case, her birthday was "extended."  She had ice cream sundaes with her Ohio cousins and went to the movies.  Then she had a little party at my parents' house before heading to Washington, DC for a mini-vacation.  Her birthday cereal of choice was just like everyone else's has been- Lucky Charms.
Happy Birthday, sweet Lucy!  We love you!
