Lucy, this week’s picture was pretty difficult to decide on. This is why I should’t take so many pictures. I had a hard time deciding between you in your high chair, your big head and belly, a super happy girl (who loves pulling hair), or the final shot below. So hard to pick! At any rate, you are sitting by yourself on the floor very well these days, with the passing dog or an occasionally over-affectionate sibling being the only real threats to your stability. You’re also doing your darndest to get to stuff on the floor, but you find yourself frustratingly going backwards instead of towards your current object of interest. Once you figure out the whole backwards/forwards thing, you’re going to be a terror.
