Lucy loves to count

Lucy has really become really good at counting from 1-10 and she will be playing and we'll hear her just start counting to herself. It's hard sometimes to get her to do it on cue, but here are some cute videos of her demonstrating her math skills!!!

Eagle Crest






This past weekend, Lucy, Chris, Daisy & I headed down to Central Oregon, near Bend to the Eagle Crest resort. This resort is awesome! There is something for everyone. Two beautiful 18-hole golf courses, 3 large swimming areas, indoor and outdoor with kiddie pools, lots of playgrounds, tons of great paved bike trails, nearby hiking trails, the Deschutes river, and some great restaurants in Bend. We had fun swimming with Lucy, and we rented bikes and biked all around the resort. Lucy thought being on the bike was great, she was behind me saying "Woo Hoo!" We also had some great food...we visited the Deschutes Brewery in Bend, OR and had baby back ribs, so tender that just fell right off the bone and some really really tasty "sweet & spicy mac and cheese." So yummy. We also found a great breakfast spot called McKay Cottage in Bend, and we enjoyed Eggs Benedict with fresh lobster, shrimp and crab and Chris ordered the croissant stuffed French toast with marscapone cheese and strawberries. Unbelievable! All in all, it was a wonderfully fun and relaxing weekend! If any of you get the chance to visit Bend, I would highly recommend staying at Eagle Crest, there are lots of condos you can rent too for families.

Oregon State Fair






Lucy, Chris & I had a wonderful time at the Oregon State Fair. The petting zoo was probably the highlight. They had deer, a little pig, goats and lots of other cute animals. Lucy loves animals!!
