We’ve been to Filoli three times since it reopened in February. We went on Grandmommy’s birthday with the family, as has become our tradition.

Looking back through our photos I am reminded how happy Grandmommy was there, despite her illness. (The first photo below is Lucy now…the one next to it is Grandmommy in the same space 3 years ago. )

July - Dec, 2008

Every six months I try to put together a compilation pic showing how Lucy has changed over the previous half year. This is the fourth in the series, aka “#4, the hair and teeth cometh”.

It’s very strange; when I look at these pics it really hits me that this kid’s only been hanging around for 23 months. Sheesh, she wasn’t even around for the third season of Lost!” It seems like she’s been around forever (in a good way of course!)

Colorful Chair Sitter

Here are a couple of pics of the kid sitting in her mom’s chair. The top one is from March, 2007. The bottom one is from about 15 minutes ago.

I find these type of comparisons really fascinating. Can ya believe the kid has grown so much in just ten short months?! Even her fashion-sense has changed drastically.

"Oh, Daddy. Onesies are so 2007!"

She’s all about color now (her mom lets her pick out what she wants to wear each morning.) Her colorful getups always make me of think of stuff like H.R. Pufnstuf, Ganguro fashion, Puffy Amiyumi, and the early nineties pop band, Jellyfish.
