Easter

Somehow, I always manage to forget to take pictures at big events/holidays. Lucy wore her Easter hat for a whopping 2 minutes on our way into church (my old hat from when I was a kid) - but after church she refused to put it on. Then we went to brunch and thankfully I remembered a few, but she was tired and ready for a nap when we left, so that's all I got. I must remember to get a family picture on her birthday! (t-2days) :)

Also, I can't forget to tell you how much Lucy LOVES egg hunts. She doesn't even care if there is anything inside (although she does love chocolate). We have even been doing them inside the house this week, since we can't get outside with all this rain. It is her new favorite game! It's hard to even hide them before she starts running around picking them up!

As you can see, Lucy didn't like the Easter Bunny anymore than she did last year. :)

We are looking forward to her birthday party this weekend! How is she 2 years old already?

Lucy the flower girl

This weekend we attended Marcus's cousin Neil's wedding. Marcus was an usher and Lucy was the flower girl. Thankfully, Marcus was able to usher her down the aisle as she decided she didn't want to go on her own. In 20+ years, it won't be as easy for him! It was a great wedding and we had such a great time!

Another "little" Rapp

Little Lucy Mae isn't the only "little Rapp" on this blog anymore! That's right - another little Rapp is on the way - due October 1st! We are so excited and can't wait to meet him/her. Lucy is so in love with babies right now - so we are hoping it continues! She loves saying "oh no, baby ok?" every time she hears a baby cry and also loves to show us where "her" baby is by lifting up her shirt and exclaiming "baby in dere." As long as we can get the last part straightened out before October we'll be set!

Mistakes happen

Mistakes of the day...

1. Bathing her this morning
2. Putting semi good clothes on her
3. Leaving the room for a few minutes
4. Leaving a blue marker in my desk in a closed container

I swear she can find anything! Thank goodness it's washable and didn't get on anything else! :)

End of winter (hopefully)

So, it's been a month since my last update, and I honestly can say I don't know where it went! We went to Galena for a night with some friends, had the snowcalypse around here and have basically just been enjoying our sweet little girl.

She officially has changed her favorite word from "no" to "okay" - now if she just meant it! :) Her vocabulary is really expanding and has started putting two words together - for example "hi mommy," "bye-bye bear," "(where) Daddy go?", "oh uh, I okay" (after a few tumbles - it's so fun to see it all coming together.

One happy girl...

Playing in the snow with Daddy!

A few weeks late on these - but here are a few photos from Lucy's first "real" play in the snow! She loved eating the snow - of course! :)
