Here’s the fifth in an ongoing series where I put together a compilation picture showing how Lucy has changed over the last six months.
Here are the previous pics. Click on a pic to view the original post. A super-duper size compilation of all 30 months is here.

What a difference a few months make. The kid has really embraced her “learning how to talk” phase. She’s learning new words and phrases every day, her vocabulary changing, expanding at an incredible rate.
Because of this, I thought I’d jot down some of her favorite sayings. I find them very sweet. Unfortunately, these current “go to” phrases have very short lifespans. I’ve no doubt they’ll be discarded and replaced as the kid’s linguistic legerdemain continues to grow…
“Daddy, SIT…RIGHT THERE.”
(picture Lucy pointing at a very precise spot on the carpet, usually at the center of what looks like a doll convention.)
“Yay, Poo!”
(self-explanatory)
“Wubie, NO!”
(Poor Wubie, he doesn’t get away w/ nearly as much stuff w/ our new 2 year old beat cop around.)
“New Pants!”
(The other day I wore some new lounge pants I’d never worn before. As soon as Lucy saw ‘em, she shouted “New Pants!” pointed at my latest clearance rack find, and gave me a big smile, along w/ a knowing “I wear pants too!” look. I felt like the two of us were part of a special club.)
“My Knee!”
(This is Lucy repeating her mom’s favorite phrase. We all hear it on a daily basis, usually whenever mom tries to stand up. You know you’re in bad shape when Wubie the “Joint-Juice” Cat makes fun of you.)
Thanks to Auntie Laura for this post’s pic.

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!)

Every six months or so, I put together a compilation pic showing how Lucy has changed over the previous half year. This is the third in the series.

Here’s a video showing the kid doing a bit of walking. It’s quite amazing how fast she’s now developing. I mean, it was just last month that the kid figured out how to stand without assistance (and that was only for a second or two!) Yep, the baby milestones are being hurdled at an increasingly rapid rate. Wow.

Since we’re nearing the end of the year, I thought I’d post another batch of photos to illustrate how the kid has grown and changed over the last twelve months.
The first six pics (Jan – Jun) were originally published in a post entitled, Oy, They Grow Up Fast from June 8th, 2007.

Whenever i flip through our pics in iPhoto, I get a kick out of how much the kid has changed in the nearly five months she’s been loitering around the condo.
She’s literally more than double the size of the seven pounder we brought back from the hospital way back in January. She’s also a lot more vocal now, practicing her “UmmmUmmmUmmmUmmmUmmms” constantly, especially when her parents are trying to concentrate on something of utmost importance, like watching Battlestar Galactica.
My theory regarding her desire to talk? Through her daily observations she’s come to the realization that the sooner she gets this “talking stuff” down the sooner she’ll be able to send Daddy out to the supermarket for anything her heart desires—just like Mommy does. Oy, they grow up fast!
