happy fall!

front page news!

Lucy lost a front tooth!  Number 3, and boy is her smile cute.

Please, no, Google!

You recall that Lucy was asking Google EVERYTHING?

Well, things almost went horrifically wrong last weekend.

She had rare use of the phone in the car on a long trip.  I heard her in the back seat, saying, "Okay, Google, show me Lucy Ricardo Balls."  No problem, funny slip on the name.

Then... "Okay, Google, show me Ricky Ricardo BALLS."  Yikes!  I grappled with her for the phone, horrified, but it just showed Ricky Ricardo.  (And not his balls, thank you Jesus.)

Swoon.

Lucy's Library

We love Kindergarten!

I took down a picture that I loved and put up some maps and spaces for Lucy's work and our calendar.  Now, I love this, too!  It's good to have a place to put her bag/coat when she comes home and it's made mornings easier.

We made an un-used play baby bed into Lucy's Library.  She LOVES this, and asked for a close-up of it :)

I like how she can flip through them and pick what she wants.

We have a spot to hang her good work.  I'm sure we'll see lots of that this year!

a love note on my "little tushy"

I've been putting little notes on napkins in Lucy's lunch.  Love notes.

This morning, she asked if I'd put a note in her lunchbox.  I told her I had, and then she started scurrying around the kitchen while I cooked our eggs.

She came around the corner and told me she had a little surprise for me.  

But... I don't have a lunch box, so I she clipped it to me as I stood at the stove.

"I put a note for you--on your little tushy!" 

Oh, how I love this sweet, funny girl!!

Lucy goes to Kindergarten

And --oh, oh, oh! --the fun's begun.

I peeked at recess!  This is right outside of my window.

You can hardly see, but she's beside the girl in the pink shirt under the playground equipment.
You can see her leg and her purple shoe.  I just love how they seem to be "chatting.".

The blank stare took over this evening.  She's tired!

Very thankful for a happy girl tonight!  We're ready to go back tomorrow!
