There's nothing quite like the taste of snow

Merry Christmas!

2011-01-11T14:03:00.003-06:00

A White Christmas!
Here I am with two of my favorite gifts, Minnie Mouse and my stroller!

Galatoire's: My new favorite restaurant ...

2010-09-17T10:17:00.002-05:00

Here I am with Daddy enjoying a fork-full of butter, which seemed like the right thing to do after digesting two loaves of french bread. I also sampled some of Daddy's crabmeat maison and grilled pompano. I washed it all down with a Shirley Temple and a hump of vanilla ice cream. All in all, a perfect meal -- and a perfect weekend with Paps and Mammy -- in my first visit to the Crescent City.

My Great-Uncle Jimmy took some fun pictures of me on Memorial Day at their house on Bear Creek in Alabama! We had a great time with our friends the Paines. We have lots of pictures to post, so stay tuned!

Springtime in Oxford

Daddy says this used to be his hat

As you can see, food doesn't always make it into my mouth ...

2010-05-16T19:33:00.002-05:00

I love Popsicles!

2010-05-16T19:21:00.002-05:00

Happy Easter!!

Better Late Than Never

Hey dedicated readers! Lucy here. I know it's been a while. I have a good excuse though. We took all these adorable St Patty's Day pictures but we never posted them because we ALL had the terrible stomach bug. For a whole week! It was gross. Anyway, I wish you all the luck of the Irish and I hope you ate your fill of corned beef and cabbage. We didn't get a chance. But we did drink some green Gatorade! Cheers!

Spring Has Sprung!

2010-03-08T21:50:00.003-06:00

The long cold winter is finally over (we hope) and I am glad to be able to break out my warm-weather duds. Lately Daddy and Mama and Scout and I have been playing in the backyard a lot, swinging, mowing the grass, and even kicking a soccer ball around (Gotta get in shape! Soccer starts in two years!). My hair sure is looking red, don't y'all think?

I loved Mardi Gras in the Puerto!!

2010-02-17T17:26:00.003-06:00

Happy Valentine's Day!!

2010-01-07T15:39:00.000-06:00

Check out my teeth!

2010-01-07T15:32:00.000-06:00

As you can tell, I like to eat ...

2010-01-04T17:04:00.000-06:00

I did a lot of exploring at Mammie and Paps' house

2010-01-04T16:31:00.001-06:00

He's making a list and checking it twice ...

2009-12-14T17:53:00.001-06:00

I had a great Thanksgiving in Lexington with the other Lyons.

2009-12-04T17:03:00.004-06:00

My cousins seemed to enjoy making the gingerbread house more than I did.

As you can see, I love to ascend and descend stairs.

I don't understand why they won't let me play on the stairs all the time ...

2009-12-04T17:00:00.002-06:00

Here I am with my friend, Katherine Paine

2009-12-04T16:54:00.002-06:00

October Fun!

2009-11-07T12:11:00.001-06:00

Trick or Treat!

2009-11-01T12:22:00.002-06:00

Chocolate melts on your face, not on your hands ...

Every little bee needs two great beekeepers.

This is Mommy and Daddy's friend, Minnie Pearl (aka Marjon, who came all the way from Kansas to see me).

I loved hangin' out in the St. Peter's pumpkin patch!

2009-11-01T12:14:00.001-06:00

I'm One Year Old!!

2009-10-22T10:23:00.003-05:00

Yea, Sewanee's Right!

2009-10-18T23:19:00.004-05:00

Ah, the Sewanee fog. Apparently there was a football game being played somewhere in there.

Sewanee, Class of 2030ish.

I got to meet lots of my parents' classmates. Here I am with Andrew, my Daddy's fraternity brother. Thanks to Dennis for the pictures.

Godfather Dennis was participating in some sort of pageant this evening.

2009-10-18T23:18:00.003-05:00

Mommy and Daddy took me to Shenanigans, their favorite restaurant.

2009-10-18T23:10:00.007-05:00

Yes, that wall behind me seems to be made of burlap sack material. And if I look a bit alarmed, it's only because I seem to be the only one concerned that the building is leaning considerably and looks like it might fall over at any moment.

Hanging out with Mommy and Daddy's friends on the Mountain ...

2009-10-18T22:44:00.007-05:00

I loved my first visit to Sewanee, but sometimes I had to entertain myself.

I always manage to find a swing somewhere.

Daddy tried to feed me ground duck, but I demanded the usual beans and applesauce.

Thanks to McNeill and Quentin for the pictures. More to come, including video.

When Daddy's Away....

2009-10-06T20:36:00.002-05:00

Eat beans!

Daddy and his friends went to see U2 in Atlanta so my mama and godmother Elizabeth and baby Katherine went to eat Mexican. As you can probably tell, refried beans are my fave. I even had them in my EARS! Me encanta frijoles!

New Video!

2009-09-13T18:28:00.001-05:00

I love hanging out on the porch!

2009-09-13T17:57:00.001-05:00

Here I am Red Flyer-ing with Cousin Courtney, driven by Papa.

2009-09-13T17:30:00.003-05:00

Doesn't Daddy look dapper?

I celebrated Fall with my overall hand-me-downs (thanks to Emma and Margaret!)

2009-09-13T17:17:00.003-05:00

Here I am taking a break from the outside heat, and from crawling, which I started to do this week. Daddy will post some pictures of that later.

2009-08-29T16:06:00.003-05:00

It's been a while. . . .

2009-08-10T16:31:00.006-05:00

I sure have had a fun summer! I couldn't believe how nice the weather was during July! Mommy and Daddy took me to swing at the St. Peter's playground almost every day, we cooked outside, and Scout was her usual silly self. Last weekend we took a quick trip over to Corinth and Pickwick to see Mommy's family who had come all the way from Florida and Virginia!

In the first two pictures, I am lounging on my Great Aunt Rosemary's quilt. That quilt was pieced together by my great, great, great-grandmother, Nelle Elizabeth Nelms McIntyre. She lived to be 93. Isn't that something?

On Saturday, Great Uncle Jimmy took us out for a ride on the boat. I look pretty snazzy in my life jacket, don't you think? My favorite picture is of my daddy and me. We had a great day.

Last but not least are a couple pictures of my older sister, Scout. Big dog in a little bed!

I had a great time during first trip to Pungo!

2009-07-07T10:39:00.003-05:00

I spent a lot of time swinging on the front porch hammock.

Here we are at Belhaven's July 4th celebration

2009-07-07T10:30:00.006-05:00

Sometimes it got a bit too loud for Margaret

I preferred the shady comforts of my stroller.

From left to right: Courtney, Me, Walker, Margaret, and Emma.

I saw the Atlantic Ocean for the first time, though I think I'm a bit partial to the Gulf of Mexico.

2009-07-07T10:14:00.004-05:00

Happy Father's Day, Daddy!!

2009-06-25T16:09:00.001-05:00

I was thrilled to meet my new best friend, Katherine Alexandra Paine!

2009-06-15T16:38:00.002-05:00

Here's what I've been up to lately ...

2009-06-15T16:14:00.003-05:00

This is where I like to hang out with my friends puppyman, piano, lil dog, and clocky.

On this particular day, we made soup of cucumber and shallot.

MMMMM! Delish!

Here I am in my new Tarheels shirt shootin' the breeze with Smurf, Lion, and Turtle Rattle.

Oh Baby It's High Chair Time!

2009-06-01T15:55:00.001-05:00

I loved spending time with Paps and Mamie!!

2009-05-23T18:00:00.003-05:00

Look how well I'm sitting up!

Here I am enjoying my first swim!!

2009-05-23T17:50:00.002-05:00

Cool Baby ...

2009-05-12T18:13:00.002-05:00

Happy Mother's Day, Mommy!!!

Quality time with the Godfather ...

2009-05-12T17:50:00.001-05:00

Hotty Toddy! This picture was a special request. Paps, I hope you like it! Special thanks to Chancellor Khayat and Jennifer Southall.

I'm all Double Deckered out ...

2009-04-26T21:06:00.002-05:00

I had fun at the Oxford Double Decker Festival ... maybe too much fun.

A Break at the Lake

2009-04-26T20:37:00.002-05:00

I had a really great time with Mammie and my Great-Aunt Rosy and Great-Uncle Jimmy. As you can see, I spent a lot of time in the swing. My mama and daddy sure did miss me!

Happy Easter!!

2009-04-12T19:59:00.002-05:00

How many years until I'm eligible for the Olympics?

Take Me Out to the Ballgame!!

2009-03-22T20:29:00.000-05:00

I loved my first visit to Kentucky!! (except for the ride back) I got to spend some time with Kaki and Poppa and met my parents' friends.

2009-03-19T21:51:00.004-05:00

Open your mouth and say ahh, Daddy

2009-03-19T21:46:00.000-05:00

So they wash me here AND the dishes??

2009-03-19T21:39:00.001-05:00

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

2009-03-18T08:18:00.000-05:00

I'm starting to get the hang of it ...

2009-03-13T18:30:00.001-05:00

I love it when Paps and Mamie come see me!

2009-03-13T18:20:00.001-05:00

I loved the Great Snowstorm of the 2009

2009-03-04T11:35:00.001-06:00

Is this a little corny?

2009-03-04T07:17:00.001-06:00

Nothing like a nice warm day on the porch with Mama and Daddy

2009-02-26T23:46:00.001-06:00

2009-02-26T23:35:00.000-06:00

I want my passy!
I want my passy!!

Thank you.

Say cheese!

Andy Warhol's Bouncy Chair Phase

2009-02-05T17:16:00.003-06:00

I guess you can tell I've been doing some experimenting with Mommy's new Macbook camera. And, yes, the passy is back. But give me break! I'm only three months old!

So long passy, you've been replaced ...

2009-01-31T22:13:00.000-06:00

Is it just me, or does Mac seem to be inhabiting all of my favorite places?

2009-01-31T22:09:00.001-06:00

Fine Dining

2009-01-15T17:27:00.002-06:00

I have to say, solid food is pretty much the greatest thing ever. My friends Mac and Gus in Sewanee gave me the new bib. I think it could fit Mommy!

It's been a busy week....

2009-01-15T17:22:00.001-06:00

First, I sat in my new Bumbo chair. Then I sat in it some more. Then I smiled. Whew.

Check out my mad bottle skillz.

2009-01-15T17:18:00.002-06:00

I promise, folks, this is the real deal. Me Holding My Bottle.

My two favorite activities: swinging and chewing.

2009-01-15T17:14:00.000-06:00

Here are some pre-Christening photos. Mommy and Godmother Elizabeth are getting me ready.

2009-01-13T18:23:00.002-06:00

Mommy thinks I look like Daddy in this picture, if Daddy wore a dress.

Here are some pictures of the post-Christening brunch.

2009-01-12T14:38:00.002-06:00

Here I am with Kaki and Poppa.

This is (from left to right) Jennifer, Great Aunt Rosemary, Great Uncle Jimmy, Uncles Tom and Chris, Poppa, and Josh.

Here's Paps and Godfather Dennis. My Dennis, how prosperous you look!

I was well fed at the post-Christening celebration. That's Olivia Thompson and Great Aunt Rosemary with me.

2009-01-12T08:49:00.002-06:00

I loved seeing my friend Jack. He's going for the drooling world record.

2009-01-12T08:37:00.002-06:00

I'm working on my push-ups.

2009-01-12T08:33:00.000-06:00
