Funny little Lu

A few funny things Lucy is doing these days:

• Lucy is the queen of throwing all out fits. I am afraid the terrible 2's have already begun.
• If I tell her to go to time out, she will walk herself to the time out area and sit down.
• She doesn't like to sit in the high chair anymore. She sits on our bar stools (don't worry they have high backs), one wedged on either side of her so she doesn't fall off (she is very closely supervised). She eats much better that way.
• She has an unnatural love for Dora the Explorer.
• She thinks she needs every single blanket she has in her bed when she naps (i have to hide blankets so she doesn't realize we have so many).
• She loves to put "toys" on the Christmas Tree (aka ornaments).
• She loves to color, and sings "color color color" the entire time she does.
• Lucy has watched me multi-task too much. Instead of holding the phone to her ear and saying "hello", she wedges it between her ear and shoulder like I do. Except she can't put her arm down. She when she talks on the phone she walks around with one arm sticking straight up. :)
• It depends on the day, but usually when we ask Lucy if she wants a new baby at her house, she sweetly says "noooo".
• I taught Lucy that whenever something awesome happens, she should go "ka-ching!" and raise her arm up. She now does it whenever she's excited about something.
• Lucy is really good at her animal sounds. I'll have to post a video for this one. But I've taught her some good ones. :)
• Lucy is afraid of scarecrows and Santa. She wont go into Grandma Johnson's house until all the decorations from the doorway to the kitchen have been moved.
• Lucy starts to fake cry whenever I tell her her cousin Capri moved far away.
• The other day I was driving home from school and on the phone with Kyle. I was telling him how concerned I was that if the new baby is anything like Lucy I didn't think I would be able to handle it. "She's a nut case!" I said. Then Kyle started laughing. Right when I said that, as if on cue, Lucy (who was in her bedroom with the door shut, supposed to be sleeping) started loudly "whoooooo"ing like an owl. Gah!
• She loves to call Gran (my mom). As soon as my mom answers, Lucy says "Hello. Don Don?" She loves her uncle John.
• Lucy gets really mad when we put her in her car seat, because she wants to be squished into the rear-facer again.
• She's gotten into the naked stage. Anytime she is getting changed and especially before she gets into the tub, she tries to run for the hills. I love seeing that little naked bum running around. I think it's really funny.
• Lucy loves nursery now. She has to take her baby and her bink, but she's always so proud of herself when we pick her up at the end.
