While Ethan was in Italy . . .


I thought we would have a bunch of free time and get a ton of stuff accomplished while Ethan has been gone, but Miss Lucia sure has kept us busy on her own!  One thing we did complete was repainting the nursery (thanks Francesca!).  I figured after 5 years it needed a change.  I'll post some before/after pictures once it's all done- we went with a nice, soft yellow color- it turned out great!  Anyway- here are some pictures from the past few weeks (mostly this weekend when the weather was so nice!), while Ethan has been in Italy.  The above picture is Lucia after a nap- I love the dazed look!

The weather this weekend was finally decent- we spent a lot of time outside!

Zero after his bi-yearly bath (we really need to increase the frequency of those!).  He smelled awful before his bath- I don't know why we waited so long!  Now he smells like a normal dog!  At least I don't get whiffs of his stink when he's laying on the floor next to me- except last night when he had the most horrid gas- it was gross!

Lucia riding her tricycle, she can go backwards really well, going forwards is a work in progress!

We went for a walk downtown with Oma and Grandpa on Saturday evening.  It was nice seeing everyone out an enjoying the weather.  Lucia spotted this little dog and ran up to it. 

Miss Fabulous! 

Family Picture- minus one.  Ethan return Friday evening and we can't wait to see him and hear all about his trip!

Lucia sitting by the Request Food sign by the Devos Place.  I told her "this is where daddy's works."  I wonder if she thinks Jim goes and stands by this plaque when he's at "work."?

Oma and Lucia enjoying a moment. 

Lucia in her Easter dress, she's turning into such a proper little girl!  

But then she shoves candy in her mouth and reminds us that she is still our Lucia!

Cute pics of Lucia, and the Request Foods plaque made me laugh...I bet she does think Jim just stands there and works all day! Like when Norah thought that the dwarf planet, Pluto, was where dwarves came from! Kids are so literal!
