First smiley pictures

After a weekend of staying indoors and nursing her first nasty cold, Lucy and I decided to spend some time in the backyard today.  Okay, the decision was really mine, but she seemed okay with it. 

I was able to coax the smiles from Lucy with alternating moos and meows.  She loves those animal sounds.  I don't think our neighbors were as amused with my sound effects as she was.  Her favorite sound, though, seems to be Andy's beat-boxing.  

 Sorry for all the pictures.  I just couldn't decide which was my favorite.  

Busy little five-week-old

Yesterday was a busy day for Lucy.  Below is a photo journal of her day.

Andy put together this lovely Mother's Day table centerpiece.

Lounging at Griffith Park.  This was Lucy's first trip to the park.  She was disappointed that we didn't have any coyote sitings.

Lucy's first trip to the Sunset Strip.  We had Thai and she had milk.
