Lucy at Four Months

Andrew made this post about Lucy a long time ago. Here it is:

Lucy has been growing so quickly lately that it is hard to keep up. She is no longer an infant or even a tiny baby, but has become a big strong solid girl. We are so excited to see all of the new things that she can do. Her biggest trick as of late is rolling over. She can roll from her back to her stomach, and she has been able to do it almost everyday since the first time. However, she still can't roll back to her back, and she usually gets frustrated pretty quickly when she is stuck on her tummy with her arm pinned beneath her. We had a big controversy at our house when Rose first rolled over, because only Ashley saw it the first time and Andrew didn't get to see it happen again till a few days later. But this time we were both sitting on the couch when we saw the first roll over simultaneously.
Lucy's other favorite thing to do is smiling and laughing. We think she's a little bit ticklish because she will laugh when we're changing her onesie and getting it off for arms she also laughs and smiles when Rose is around, and she seems to recognize roses voice even from across the room and get excited by it. We recently visited Andrews brother Paul's house and Lucy was held by her older cousin Rachel. Rachel has a brother just the same age as Lucy, so she was practiced in holding babies. Lucy does really well on most car rides, but sometimes she cries when she gets hungry. Whenever she cries in the car Rose cries out of sympathy. You can tell that grows really loves her little sister because she says "Lucy sad!" and cries until we make me feel better.

Lucy has a strong grip and is getting better at holding onto a toy.
She has discovered her feet and loves to suck on them.
She is a tough girl. She rarely cries when Rose throws a toy on her, or accidentally smacks her.


Here is that first roll over
And here she is after rolling over and getting stuck
Lucy is always up for an adventure. Here she is hiking the mountain with her Daddy
We thought that her cousin Daniel was so much bigger than she, but it turns out they are about exactly the same size.
