Muffler pop

Grandparents Manley came to visit this weekend. Grandpa Jim helped Jon replace the muffler, header and oil pan gasket on the Probe. They were successful at fixing what was broken.
Today we walked to the park. I decided it would be a good idea to push Lucy in the stroller since we took the dogs. Lucy had other ideas, she played just a little bit at the park and then decided it was time to go for a walk. She did pretty good for a while, but then she tripped over her own feet and bit her top lip on the way down. Daddy got us a Popsicle to help with the swelling.
No fat lip here.
Mmmm yummy.
I'm ok.

...and Jelly!!

Lucy and I had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch today. We sang the peanut butter and jelly song while I was fixing them to keep Lucy entertained. Then, Lucy kept singing "and Jelly" as she proceeded to take her sandwich apart and lick off all the jelly.

Guess What?

A new baby Brown will be joining the family on November 4, 2008. We had our first doctor's appointment yesterday. Everything is progressing as it should and Lucy had a great time pointing at all the pictures in the Doctor's office and saying, "Baby!" Our next appointment is 5/16, which will be just a routine appointment.

Toddler

Lucy toddled her way all the way to the park today (holding Mommy's hand to cross the street). We played on the swings and slide and then toddled back home.

A Tooty Ta

After a busy morning, Lucy went down for her nap easy today. We went to the library this morning to get a book for Daddy about trees. He wants to plant a few in the yard and he wants to make sure they will work for out climate. Anyway we picked out lots of books, but forgot to look for Daddy's tree book. Right when we were getting ready to go to the adult books, the librarian came around collecting kids for story hour. We decided to go and it was great fun. Lucy's favorite part was the "A Tooty Ta" song. She loves to dance and sing. When I searched for the song on the web I found lots of YouTube videos. Follow the link to watch some strangers acting silly. I expect everyone to learn the dance by the 4th of July so you can do it with Lucy.

Hi Guys

Lucy is going through a phase where she says hi to everyone and everything.

Staying at home is fun

Lucy and I have had lots of fun staying at home. Unfortunately she doesn't like it when I use the computer (she wants to push the buttons herself) so I haven't gotten a chance to post lately.
