Funny Girl

Lucy, my goose girl; your crazy! That is who you are, just one crazy personality. You are by far the funniest person I have ever met. You make us laugh so much, your funny. Dexter says it everyday. I say you are crazy and he says no, she is funny. You are so mature and older than your one year old age. So at times, it is hard because you can't talk but you can do everything else. I can't wait for you to talk more, because it will be hilarious but it may help with the loud frustrations when we don't understand you. You are the happiest person, sometimes you get angry and very loud. You have a high volume, but you have never thrown one fit. You are so good at communicating with us, and we just have to figure it out.
You are the funniest craziest girl. You are so tough, so tough, but so girly. Your the girliest tomboy. when you were born, Jarom made me promise that you would grow up girly. Because I didn't. I promised and I have tried. I put the bows in your hair and you yank them right out. You love dresses, nailpolish, skirts, makeup, dolls, dirt, running, jumping, growling, getting dirty and never looking back. You are in constant go mode.
You are the most loving soft girl mixed with your crazy. You are so motherly and I have been so amazed how you have been with Phoebe, from day one you loved her instantly and you have never once been jealous or upset with her. Instant sister love. You love Gee Gee!
Your starting to talk so much more and it is so fun to see what you got. so soft and sweet to so loud, growly.
Your words as of now
Gee Gee is Phoebe
Yellow is all color
BaBa: bottle or milk

You are hilarious, you have become a mommas girl. You are my little buddy, I think we get each other. I love you so much, your the funnest best daughter. I just love you too much, I never thought I would get a girl and now I have 2 of you and I have loved every moment of it. It was been so fun and I am so excited to have this in my life because I felt like I missed out on a lot bonding and tender girl moments and I would rather have it this way and be able to share it with you and experience that bond with you. You are the relationship that I always dreamed of.

19 months

Lucy;
First off, you have definately got to be the funniest person I have ever met. You are so funny and just full of characther. We can't stop laughing around you, your facial expressions and reactions to everything is classic. These past few months you have become my own little bud. I think you are me, just in tiny form. My mother and grandma say that when I was your age, I acted the exact same as you.
But we have become so close and I have felt so connected to you. You are the sweetest girl. You love and adore Dexter. He is your idol. You love Phoebe so much, you are so sweet and funny with her.
You love Jarom, Grandpa Craigy. You are always teasing them.
You are so fun and make me so happy.

Crazy soft thing

Lucy

I haven't wrote much to you as of yet, I don't know why. I think I just always feel so connected to you and you are so much like me that I think you just get it. That made sense right. You have always just been ready to go so I think that is how I look at the rest of your life, you are just ready to go. You have way to much energy and want to experience life. You have been amazing in your first year. We all got hid with the best surprise when we got Phoebe and you just quickly pre-grew up for it and you were ready. I think you knew more of what was going on and was ready for it. You are best friends with Dexter and Phoebe equally. You love Dexter so much and you always have to know where Phoebe is and take care of her.
You are so independent and kind of crazy. You do your own thing at your quick pace, It is so sweet when we see your shy attached side which we forget is there at times because of your go attitude. Lately you have been so into dolls and nurturing. I have watched you in nursery and I am so shocked with your soft nurture gentle ways. It really is amazing to watch how much you have learned from watching me and with Phoebe. You are so hiddenly attached to us, you love too much. You are so funny and the best little thing to have around. You love so many people in your life and interact and express your love to them all the time.
We love and adore you and I really do see so much of myself in you. You are me and I feel so connected and a part of you.
You make us laugh so much, I will often find myself laughing out loud at something you just did. Your crazy fun. You keep going and just be you.

Lucy, you are one of the best part of my days. Each day I get home from work I can't wait to see you. I love just watching you, you do the funniest things, have the funniest character and are just all out crazy. You are so creative and so silly funny. Your a tough cookie, not much phases you, you have no attention span, you are always on to the next best thing. You are a funny girl, so loving, so funny and the best.
I love you goose girl.

Lucy, so much has changed for you in the past month. You kind of got ripped off being the youngest for such a short amount of time. Dexter got to enjoy 3 years and you only got one year. You went off formula, changed car seats and have been walking for a good 4 months now. Since we have gotten Phoebe you have had to grow up, although you don't notice one bit. You were amazing with the addition of your sister. Just so natural and you had that instant love also. From the moment you met her you have been so excited. Every time you see her you are so soft and so funny. You give her about 20 kisses a day. You have not had one moment of jealousy.

I have even held other babies and you are not ok with that. But with Phoebe, you know her, you know your sister. Grandma Lorraine said you and her were best friends in heaven and could not be apart and that is why you are so close in age and how Phoebe came so quickly.

I never had a sister and that is the one thing in my life I wish I had. How much nicer it would have been to grow up with a constant best friend. I really did feel alone alot growing up with 4 brothers and great parents that didn't understand girls. I am so happy and thankful that you will get that special bond throughout your life.

I am amazed at you Lucy, you love life, you are so funny, you just entertain yourself and are happy as long as you can see us. You are never grumpy, just the happiest person in the world. You have been amazing with all your changes, you just take what is thrown at you. You are a strong person and full of so much love. You adore your sister, you loved her instantly and I really think you were prepared for this better than we were. You knew what was going on, your little spirit is still so close to heaven that you remember. I am so glad you got your little friend, your sister to help you through life. I love that you will have that bond that I didn't get. You two planned this out perfectly.

You a amazing with this transition, you make me so happy and you always make us laugh.

It's safe to swallow

Dexter it the poster child of commercials. He remembers everything he sees. One day he kept telling me about how Lucy needs a toothbrush even though she is little. He kept telling me that it is safe to swallow. Of course he saw this on a commericial. He kept bothering me about it. I told him he could get it for Lucy for her birthday. Right after that, what commercial is on TV, the baby toothbrush and toothpaste. I assure him we will get it later for Lucy's birthday. Dexter says, "Good idea." Later that night Dexter and I went to Walgreens and what is the first thing he sees, the toothbrush and toothpaste. Dexter begs for it, we get his sister his gift 3 weeks early. I love that Dexter always thinks of others. Most kids would only find things that they would want, but Dexter is always thinking of other. I thought it was so cute that he wanted to get this for his sister Lucy. When we got home, he wanted his and Lucy's pajamas on so they could brush their teeth. Dexter taught Lucy how to brush here teeth, and every few nights he always remembers to brush her teeth.

Love

You are the happiest kid in the world. Nothing makes you mad. You do let us know when you need something, but you rarely cry. From day one the only thing that you have needed is a love. The first time that Daddy was getting up with you in the night. He could not get you comfortable and to stop crying. He said he changed you twice and fed you, he came to me in desperation for help. I said all that you needed was a love. He wrapped you up and cuddled you and you went right to sleep. That is how you have been from day one.
Your a mobile kid, not that needy of us from the looks of it. You just have to know we are there, the second we are out of sight, you are mad. As long as you have us; you are so happy. But throughout your playing and running around, every few minutes you run to one of us and give us a hug, love, kiss constantly. You even hit up Dexter a few times throughout the day. He loves it. He said you are his best sister ever. Last night I came home from work and I got about 20 hugs from you. I started crying because I really did feel the love you have for me. You are such a sweet girl and have so much personality. You are so loving to everyone. Except Jarom, you kind of tease; pick on him. Very funny.
