Ocean Park and Pacifier Success ... sort of

Some pacifer success today - mommy could not be happier! I spent the morning repeatedly offering the pacifier to Lucy and eventually she did take it. She's been good with it off and on today, so hopefully this will give me a little rest every now and again, although if she truly is hungry, there is no mistaking that cry!


Lucy also went on a little outting today to Ocean Park. Marge and Norm went ahead of us and then we met up with them at the pandas. It was fun to get out. I think I mentioned before that we bought a year-long pass and we're hoping that Lucy will really like going there often when she gets a bit older. Even now it is a fun place to stroll around.

Tonight we are having a BBQ with Marge and Norm and our friends Bob and Jenn and their kids, which will be fun. It's nice that it is close to home in case Lucy has a meltdown. I like getting out a bit more, it makes me feel a bit more human.
Pete goes back to work tomorrow and boy are we going to miss him! I love having him home, but I guess this will give Lucy and I some time to get in a routine before Marianne, our nanny, gets here in a few weeks. I think it is going to be so weird to have a nanny, but it's nice that Lucy will have one-on-one attention. Although, it's going to be difficult to leave her regardless.
