We've been delightfully busy since we moved back to Moscow, and I haven't had the chance to take as many pictures as usual. But I looked through my phone and found several photos that give you an idea of what we've been up to.
Lucy still takes amazingly long naps in the afternoon, and since Clara does not take amazingly long naps, we've been able to have a lot of mama-baby bonding time. So first is a selfie, not nearly as newsworthy as the pope's, but still cute.
Lucy has discovered her artsy side. She spends a good portion of each day coloring, etch-a-sketching, and drawing with chalk. Here is Sketty, my all-time favorite drawing of hers:
We've reconnected with our friends the Points here in Moscow. They have a daughter also named Lucy who is just a few months younger than ours. They are fast friends, and Morgan and I love listening to our two daughters interact and play together.
Here are the two Lucys exploring Palouse together.
I'm not sure how Lucy caught the back-to-school bug considering she has no older siblings, but a few days ago she marched up to me with her backpack on and announced that she was going to school. And every day since then she has either donned her backpack to go to school, or gathered up her belongings in a purse and gone off to a "meeting". Both times I have been left to listen on the monitor for her pet penguin in case he wakes up screaming (which he inevitably does).
Lucy and Clara are starting to interact more as well, and Lucy was thrilled to discover that her sister could sit in a baby swing at the park and they could swing together. We frequently catch Lucy saying things like: "Look at her cute fat baby legs!"
They even managed to complain in unison when I suggested a photo shoot:
And lastly, I have proof of Clara's cute, fat baby legs. We love this chunky stage!
