Part of Lucy's World

Lucy's latest talent is singing.  She sings in the car, while we walk, in the splish-splash bath, in her bed, while we rock her before bed--pretty much ALL THE TIME.  I love it!  She's getting pretty good at singing Teach Me to Walk in the Light, Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, and Ariel's Part of Your World from "The Little Mermaid."  I was finally able to get a video of her singing last week.  I know you can't hear it very well, but she does get a little louder toward the end.  Look out, Taylor Swift!  You've got some competition!!

(NOTE:  Before you watch this video, you'll have to scroll down to the music player and pause it or stop it, otherwise you won't be able to hear Lucy singing.)

Make-uh-Bum Dance Party

Once upon a time, when Riley was a lot younger, I was changing his bum and he got away from me before I could put his new diaper on him.  I said something like, "Hey!  Naked-bum-boy, come back here!"  Lucy must have thought I said, "Make-uh-Bum" because ever since then, she's referred to wearing nothing but a diaper as a "Make-uh-Bum."  Lucy and Riley's absolute favorite activity now is to run around as "Make-uh-Bums"--wearing nothing but their diapers and sometimes their socks.  Sometimes they just run around like crazy; most of the time, they LOVE having make-uh-bum dance parties!  This particular video is of a make-uh-bum dance party they had just before Christmas 2012.
