We're still here!

It's been very busy around here with the regular every day stuff. Lucy is into everything! She's very hard to put down at night because she WILL NOT stay in bed. Half the time, if you ask her if she wants a spanking, she says, "Yeah." If you give her one after a reply like this, she often laughs and runs away or acts like nothing happened. Needless to say, spankings aren't often effective with this kid. She is so hard to discipline and we are trying to figure out what works. She doesn't really understand timeouts either. Part of the problem is she is so stinking cute that we are trying not to laugh our heads off when we are getting after her. If anybody has any advice, feel free to share it.
Dale has been trying to get Lucy to say her first and last name together and she answers the same way her cousin, Bodie, used to answer, "Lucy Grandma Rogers." It sounds more like, "Wuzy Gamma Wogers."
I put sponge curlers in her hair for the first time last Saturday and she was so cute for church! I'll post pictures soon.
I'm 29 weeks (6 1/2 months) prego now and starting to get big. I wonder how big this kiddo is going to be. Dale got me a gift certificate for a pregnancy massage that I fully plan on using, probably soon. I'm excited!
Home prices are finally starting to drop here, making it more affordable for us to either buy or build a home. We've noticed the economy delays its effect on our small town and when gas went up and down, we went up and down a few weeks to months after the big cities did. So far, Dale's job is pretty secure, and hopefully we'll be in a home a year from now.
