Lucy is just the cutest, funniest, and smartest 5 year old we know! She continues to be the child who questions and analyzes everything Kenny and I say! You can't get away with anything around Lucy! She is so inquisitive and observant! If Kenny and I can't remember something, there is a good chance Lucy will! She does attempt to assert her independence at every chance she gets. We've been told it's a middle child thing?!?! She has to choose her clothes/lunch for the day, I can't just lay things out for her or make her any kind of sandwich. She gets upset when she doesn't have a say. She is very strong-willed, and that will pay off later in life for her, I just know it! She and Delaney still get along well, about 50% of the time! They are butting heads lately, especially since Lucy can do most of what Delaney does at this point! It's hard to separate the two of them and realize they are 17 months apart! Lucy is trying to read lately and knows all of her phonics. She can count to 100 and her handwriting is so good! She is going to VPK 5 days a week now at The Children's Workshop and LOVES it there, especially her little friends! We have a fun LaLaLoopsie-themed birthday party planned in December for all her girlfriends from school! We went to her 5 year well-child checkup the other day and she weighed 41 lb and was 43 3/4" tall (75th percentile for both). She is wearing size 5 clothes now and size 11 shoes. She loves wearing skinny jeans, boots, and tutu's. She loves singing, especially all the current pop music hits! Her best friend is Lily from school, she continues to LOVE macaroni and cheese, and wants to be a nurse when she grows up!
Happy 5th Birthday Dear Lucy! You light up our lives!
