Some Updates


Lacy is now 24 weeks! My how the time has flown. She is doing wonderful and is still such a happy and smiley baby. Last week she made it through her first plane ride, unscathed, and no worse for the wear. She did GREAT! We really had no problems with ears as we fed her on landing (she slept both times through take off). I think her parents realize that travel is not nearly as easy or as cheap as it used to be. With all the new baggage costs and overweight bag costs, Lacy's parents added almost $200 extra to their tickets. As some of you may know, travelling with kids requires MUCH more baggage. Regardless, it was (as always) a nice yearly visit up to the cottage.

Lacy got to know her G'ma and Aunt Steph and there was so many new things to see and do. Lacy had her first boat ride, watched her first water ski show, met her great grandmother and great aunt, swung in her first hammock, caught her first fish (kind of), had her first foray with sand and splashed in the lake. It was an all around good trip. While we were there Lacy started to sit up on her own (for seconds at a time), but still that spine is getting stronger every day. Lacy also (while sharing a room with mom and dad) found that she could grab both her feet in the middle of the night, and let me tell you, once she figured that out, she didn't sleep a wink. She played with her feet and babbled ALL night long.

At present, we are positive that she must have a tooth coming in. Her drool has increased, her crankiness increased and everything that she can grab a hold of goes into her mouth. We are looking forward to a visit from Ryan's parents and exploring more of the sights and sounds of our new city.

Love to all!
