Travel, Christmas, New Friends, and Still Not Crawling

This past month, our little family of three has endured much traveling. Our little Lucy, thankfully, does pretty well in the car. We first traveled back home to Illinois. Then on to St. Louis for Christmas. After Christmas we went to the Campus Crusade Christmas Conference, and then home again. A few days later, we started out for Georgia again, and this time, we stopped at a hotel halfway to break up the 12+ hour trip. Do you blame us? :) We have decided we are not leaving Georgia until our support raising is finished and we're praying that will be sometime in February.

Here is what Lucy does more than half the time we are on the road:

Lucy had a good time playing with her toys at home:

Here she is making some new friends at Christmas Conference. Lucy loved the other babies. It was cute to see her interact with and "talk" with them.

Lucy had her 9 month check up earlier this month and weighed 17 pounds and was 26 and a half inches tall. Also, we went swimming for the first time with her at the hotel and she loved it. She still doesn't crawl but rolls everywhere and LOVES to walk with somebody holding her hands.
