Has it really been 7 months?

Lucy Jo is 7 months old!!?? Our sweet little baby is crawling (albeit a pretty scrappy flopping the legs and pulling forward with the arms crawl) and starting to make da da da sounds. She even crawled her way over to the couch and looked like she was trying to figure out if she could pull herself up on it. This one is not content to be the only family member sitting in one spot. Why miss all the fun?
Lucy's favorite playthings are tags. She will completely ignore the toy and go for the tag on the toy. She even ignores the pretty tags on her taggie book and goes right for the product tags.
A surefire way to get Lucy to smile and maybe even laugh is to have her sisters run back and forth. She thinks this is the best entertainment ever. Peek a boo is a close second.
Lucy Jo is our little bit. She is tall but pretty skinny for her age. This creates a clothing problem for me. She is mostly still wearing 3-6 month clothing but even some of those pants fall off of her waist. She will often crawl right out of her pants. For them to really stay on, they has to be 0-3 months but then they are certainly not long enough. I have a feeling this will be a problem for her for the rest of her life.
Lucy has a few nicknames around the house: Lu Lu, Jo Jo, Lucy Belle, Lucy Lu, Belle, this girl is probably really confused about what her real name is.... even then we really never call her Lucille Joann! :-)

Lucy is lucky to have great jeans from you and Lance! Tall and skinny is not a curse. :)
