The Babe with the Power

Luci and I are on a date.

We just left my appointment and are taking a brief pit stop before we head to her appointment. I'm in the library, nursing a sick baby as I type with one hand, shielding the view from the two elderly men with whom I'm sharing a computer room. What a date!

So, the millions of pictures, pale and listless in the long wait to be posted, will have to continue waiting, as will the three of you who are reading this.

Because I promised a baby picture, here is one picture for each of you, even though I don't think any of these look much like the real Luci, except for the last one.


Three weeks old and wearing her baptism gown...

Curious and frightened:



Frightened and curious:



Three weeks old and going for a swim in newborn clothes...



Oh, we love her!

p.s. She's over 5 weeks old now...and HUGE!!!!!!!!

There's 8 of us now who are gleeful to see a few photos of your beautiful littlest one. So that means you owe us at least five more photos! So sorry she's sick!

lady-you are in denial....

feeling so lucky to oogle your dear one every week.

For some reason~ the second one reminds me of the bird, just a bit.

The third one is great though-her hat is so stinkin' HUGE. Her HAT, btw, NOT her.

Luci is absolutely beautiful and looks just like her mama! Thank you for the update and photos. I check your blog many times a week and when I saw the update I felt that I had found the "pot of gold" on St. Patrick's Day. Many prayers for her good health and for all in your family.

Much love!

What is that stuff that looks like a swarm of gnats around the baby's head in the second phone? No wonder she's frightened.
Oh, and congratulations, too.

Jamie said...

I believe you officially owe us 22 pictures...not 3! ;)
Thanks for posting some pics of her...I've been checking faithfully, waiting and waiting...having to remind myself that caring for the newborn IS more important than my NEED to see a picture of her!! ;)
Congrats again...she's beautiful!

Michelle said...

I am so happy to have been able to see you and wee Luci at Elizabeth's get together! :) My only regret is I didn't ask to hold her. Rats.

She has gotten so big, even compared to these photos!

Oh, and the gnat comment made me laugh. :)

abby...this morning I was looking at the "doodle" you sent us, hanging over Asher's crib, and so I of course thought of you! Just wanted to say I miss you...you're on of my favs, and I hope you and your beautiful family are well and that you can come back to blogland soon! God bless!
