{Baby}sitting my niece

One of the hard things about my sister living in another state is that I don't ever get to have Lucy to myself. I know if they lived here I would be Maren's perma-babysitter and she would be mine. That is why when she came and I actually got to tend her not once but twice I was thrilled. She is DARLING!  With out her mommy around she shows me just a little bit more sugar.  I just love her to bits and pieces and so do my kids, and even Jeron adores her. 

We had fun crawling around, toddling around, doing hair, playing dolls, eating blocks, eating fishies, and just being together.  

I hope that our kids will always be close.  Elsie already calls Lucy her best friend.  I sure hope that sticks. 
 Emma, JJ and Ellie can't get enough of her.  We all just love us some Lucy.
