Lucy has been growing so amazingly fast- it seems like it was a couple of months ago that she would lay on the ground and stare at the ceiling, or toys or whatever until she got hungry or I missed her heaviness. She just cut two teeth this week- her third on the top right and on the right bottom- and follows directions so beautifully.
I say stop, she stops. Bowden was never so obedient as a baby.
I ask her for a kiss, and she'll give one, usually followed by a little, "Aaaah..." because that's what we do when she or Bowden kiss each other or us. She climbs on everything...there is a little rocking chair at work that she got onto today because she saw Bowden do it, and she was very pleased with her accomplishment. She'll show me things, like ping-pong balls, and she loves to hide under everything and peep out. I am very glad to have such a sweet and loving baby.
Bowden was mild and easy-going, and Lucy is not so much. She's prone to dramatics- when she falls, even on something soft, even if it's on her plushy bottom, she'll cry like it was a traumatic experience. She yells when she gets frustrated, whereas Bowden would just truck on through. I can't wait to see their other differences.
I like being a mother right now, but not just a mother. I like being a mother to my children.

It is fun to see the differences and the emerging personalities. Bowden's resiliency is amazing. Lucy's dramatics are fun. She is just EMOTIONAL. I understand that! But the good side is that she loves the kissing and the hugging and the laughing and waving. What a sweetie she is.
Bowsie is "tool" and my best boy, as always!
Golly Gee, I miss them...
