A day in the life of Lucy...

Lucy is a VERY busy baby. In the course of an ordinary day, Lucy has the events that she simply must attend to - such as naps, diaper changes, sippy cups, snacks, and bath time. But, even though her schedule is very full, she finds lots of time for mischief in all of its various forms.

If all you ever looked at was this picture, you would think Lucy was the most sweet and innocent baby in the world - sugar and spice and everything nice! But....

...just when you're sitting there thinking about how cute and sweet she is, totally lost in your own thoughts and not expecting anything terrible to happen, she would stand up on the ottoman, shriek with delight, and launch herself directly at you, whether you are ready to catch her or not. Repeat 400+ times per day.


Sometimes, Lucy starts to feel a touch of cabin fever. Why let artificial boundaries like doors and locks separate you from the big world outside, full of awesome things like rocks, bugs, sticks, strangers, asphalt, speeding cars, rabid dogs? You guys - there could be FIRE out there! Or poison! YOUR HUMAN LOCKS WILL NOT CONTAIN ME!

If you'd like to join the Free Lucy campaign, she's taking donations through Paypal.


After an hour or so of wrangling with the locked door and finally giving up (or so we think)...Lucy turns to wreaking havoc with her indoor toys. In this picture, you can see Lucy trying desperately to shove a plastic rolling pin into the frunk on her plastic car. Thank the good lord above for plastic...the only substance on earth that is (so far) immune to Lucy's destructive powers.


After a full day of Lucy the Baby Destroyer fun-filled activities, Lucy reverts back to her MOST favorite activity - climbing up and down on the couch, laughing her head off the whole time. The only thing that could make this better is if the couch was on fire.
