funny kid at 20 months

You can tell her eyes are a bit off...we aren't sure if she's fighting a cold (for the last month) or if she has allergies like her mama (it is pollen season down here).Sitting still is not one of her specialities...Reading Go Dog Go for the millionth time...

Sweet as ever, sharing her "baa" with Bear!

I love this kid!

In case you didn't know, our Luce is a pretty funny kid. I love seeing her sense of humor & personality evolve. She laughs now at the funny parts of books (even if it is the 100th time that day) and cracks herself up quite regularly...she tries to share her paci with the cats and then laughs. She shares the paci with Bea & laughs. She throws Bea down the slide & then laughs. She makes Bea pretend cry & then actually says hug (huuuhhhh) while hugging her...and then laughs. She tries to put the shape in the wrong spot and says, "noooo" while laughing. She's kind of a goofball!

She also makes a lot of associations that crack us up. Today for example...

scene: church, organ music in the background

Mom & Dad: standing facing forward with one eye on Luci

Luce: muahh, aaah, ahh, haaa (channeling The Count from Sesame Street)

Mom & Dad: confusion...then

Mom: she's being The Count!

Mom & Dad: stifled laughter

She also said her first little phrase yesterday in church...at the end of the service my arms were tired...holding 26lbs of squirmin Luce for 1.5 hours is exhausting...and I tried to hand her over to Clay...to which she responded, "more Mama, okay?! okay." Of course how could I hand her over after that?
