The "Shades"

On Saturday morning, Lucy McLean got to meet Kristin and Adam Shade for the first time. Of course, they had to buy her some cutie patootie shades! Thank you! LM couldn't keep her eyes off of Adam. We miss you guys and can't wait to see you again soon!

4 Months and Counting!

Lucy McLean is officially (well, as of 8:00 tonight) 1/3 of a year old! I can't believe it. It seems like yesterday that we were meeting her for the first time. Here are some pictures of our fun loving little girl! We went for her check-up this morning. Stats are:
Weight- 14. 4= 75%
Height- 25 3/4= 95% (we are thinking she gets that from her dad)
Head- 16.75= 90% (we think she gets her big brain from her mama)

Favorite things:
Rolling over
Having EVERYONE'S attention
chewing on everything
walking
sleeping (9 hours a night... THANK YOU LORD)
Snoop
Grandparents

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts, prayers, and support over the last 4 months. We feel truly blessed!

Love,

Ryan, Erin, Lucy McLean and Snoop

Cheap vacation ideas needed

So, Ryan and I are thinking, last minute, that we would like to go on a vacation. Our ideal vacation would be laying around and loving on LM with nothin on our to do list! There are only two catches...

1. I have been on maternity leave for 4 months = NO MOOLAH!!!

2. We would like to go like Aug. 9th ish, which is like tomorrow.



Any ideas? Bring them our way.



And even better... if you know how to get us here cheap, call ASAP!

Blogstalking Pays off..

Lucy McLean and I are so excited about what we just got Ryan for his birthday! Through a little addiction of mine, blogstalking, we found the best ever birthday present. Best part is... Daddy has to wonder what it is until August 2nd!!!

Look how big I am?

Our weekend in a nutshell

Lucy McLean continues to grow and amaze us daily. She has now decided that she likes sleeping on her back with her bottom in the air. I have to say that it makes us a little nervous, but she is too stinkin precious. Ryan tried to take pics, but it was a very weird angle.

Today we got to spend the day with Adrianne and Creighton. Adrianne and I were roomates in undergrad. Lucy McLean did pretty well considering she had a very long day. We went out for lunch, to the mall and then back to Adrianne's to hang out. She loved swinging/sleeping on the hammock with her Auntie Adrianne. Here are some pics from our day. Sorry Creighton, we forgot to get any pictures of you.

Updated pics...

Last weekend, we were blessed with the opportunity to hang out with the fabulous Livingstons. We love this family. They are too stinkin hilarious. Jen and Scott are in our Homegroup at church. Below are 4 of their 5 kids (Lyric was in bed)... Dreco, Jacoby, Jazzy and Marissa. We love you guys. Thanks for a yummy dinner and a great time!
Lucy McLean and I have been at my parents since Monday. While it was hard to be away from Ryan, we had a great time with my parents. I didn't end up taking very many pictures. Below is my dad doing "his favorite thing in the world", holding LM while she sleeps. The second picture is of LM ready to swim in her cutie patootie bikini that Aunt Crystal bought her. THANK YOU! She says she feels like a princess in it!
