Hello and Happy New Year!

The new year was off to a snowy, wet start, so the pictures this month fall into a couple of basic categories: Fun in the Snow, and Playing Someplace Warm (like the Children's Museum). Lucy visited and played with a lot of friends this month, too. It's been fun watching her become a social critter, talking and making up games with friends. This month also saw a couple of fun firsts: Lucy's first sled ride, and, more importantly, her first turns on skis.

It's all in this month's album in the Gallery. Enjoy.

Well, in this short month, Lucy has really grown, especially in her ability to communicate. Some choice phrases issued from our daughter include:
"I want more bubbles...the truck exclaimed."
"Posey scratched me as I drifted off to sleep" (He didn't, but that's what she said).
"Oooh, a gust of wind!"
"Help me to understand..."

She "read" (from memory) two entire books for a visiting baby.

And then, there was the inevitable use of one important word: "Why?" Lots of questions this month.

The pictures may not include the words, but you'll see Lucy having fun all over the city with a variety of people, and, if you look closely, you'll even see her future brother/sister!

In addition to the normal gallery here at Tabulas, you can see the same pictures in a Flash Slideshow at this site: http://www.curtgerstonphotography.com/lucyfeb07/

Enjoy!
