The Latest Martin Update

Saturday Lucy was my little helper in the yard. Grandma was teaching her how to pull weeds. Lucy loved her feet being dirty and really enjoyed trying to eat the weeds. Lucy really enjoys outside but wants to be with someone. She is not happy entertaining herself yet. Toys only work for 20 minutes if I'm lucky.



Sunday we spent the day shopping for a new trailer. Grandma and Grandpa need help with selling theirs so we were checking out used trailers to trade in on. And we need one so we can go camping with Trinity and the Herrin family in September. Lucy could really care less about the whole experience and all I got was a good workout from carrying her. Last time she was weighed was with Aunt Andy and the scale read 23 pounds.
We also had a family potluck and Lucy met her new cousin Jacob for the first time. Great-grandma just can't get enough of Lucy. As soon as Lucy arrives GG has her in her arms and won't share with anyone else. Lucy is definitely special to her GG.

I just have to say that it is SOOOO nice having Grant back to work. Having that extra paycheck is such a weight off our shoulders. The biggest draw back - he's been working in LA. He doesn't really mind as long as the traffic isn't too terrible. Last week he had one night that took over 4 hours to get home; he basically came home, took a shower, had a quick bite to eat and straight to bed because the alarm clock goes off at 2:45am. Trust me - we are all thankful he has a job!!!

Grandma has been teaching Lucy how to sing "Happy Birthday". I expect her to sing her little heart out for my 30th!!!

Lucy's first tooth came in last week and the second one is pushing its way through. She has handled the pain very well. Saturday I gave her Baby Orajel twice and I was scolded by Grant saying she was becoming addicted to it. All I know is it helped her nap during the day. Next week she has her 6 month check up so I will definitely update you on her measurements; she is growing in length so hopefully her weight won't be to high. Oh well if it is - she's a happy baby!!

Ginger loves to give kisses!
