My Little Rascal


My Little Lucy Turned 2 in early June (6/5)... crazy that my baby is a two-two already!  Lucy has my heart.... and she is all of the following things:

1- a major rascal.  My Lucy is the very definition of a "terrible two".  She has temper tantrums on a dime, she bites, she hits, she runs away from me in public places, her favorite place to play is in the middle of the street, she has no fear factor, she jumps into the deep end of the pool, she sneaks drinks of my diet cokes whenever she sees an opportunity, and the list goes on!

2- a lover.  Lucy knows just how far to push her mommy. She will push and push and push and right before I explode, she will give me the sweetest little kiss on the lips and say "I love you mommy"... and then i become mush and dont explode afterall.  Its like she has this sixth sense about how far to push me...... i Love this girl!

3- a cuddle Bug- Unlike her big sister Dixie, Lucy is a lover and LOVES to cuddle.  She wakes up in the wee early morning hours almost daily and comes in bed with her mama to snuggle.  She snuggles me when watching TV, and she will often come for a quick cuddle during her play. She often will adorn me with several kisses all at once.. I'm a lucky mommy that's for sure!

4- a fashionista- Lucy is a total girly girl when it comes to clothing. The girls LOVES to accessorize. She is always prancing around the house with various sunglasses, necklaces, purses and brackets adorning her toddler body.  Her favorite all time accessory is the tutu, of which she has many.  She wears them over pants, over pajamas, and solo on a regular basis.  Bedtime really isn't bedtime without a tutu over her jammies.

Lucy LOVES her big sister dixie... she always asks me, "where is didee" is when shes not around, she always wants exactly what dixie has, and dixie is such a peacemaker that she usually gives in to Lucy's demands.

Lucy loves the color pink and Dixie likes all things blue.  All sippys, plates, balloons, ect are dived up by these color selections.

We had a two year old birthday party for Lucy on her actual birthday and it was SO much Fun!  We went to a fun park, rented a pavillon area with 4 picnic tables and lots of shade.  Her auntie patience and cousin Jude were in town for the event, she had lots of toddlers friends in attendance and everyone had a blast.  It must be said though that Lucy wanted nothing to do with the usual birthday traditions. She didnt want to blow out her candles, did not want anything to do with opening her presents (Dixie opened them all, lucky big sister!), and she didnt even want to hit the pinata or pick up the candy.  However she DID have a great time running around the park like crazy and doing her own rascally things.  All the kids and mommys did have a great time though.. probably my best birthday party yet!  One note though is the toddlers do not necessarily need a real baseball bat to hit the pinata with... it was a little scary!

Auntie poo poo & judy pants came to visit for 2 weeks during her birthday and it was SO Great to have them here.  We did lots of fund stuff and got to play with Jude...and  hes a toddler now!!!!!! I did my auntie duties and gave him lots of chocolate, sugar, and chicken nuggets :)  He went gaga over the nutella too... takes after his mommy!  I wish we lived close.  I love all of my nieces, nephews, sisters and brother dearly and its so sad we are all live so far apart.......
