The Smush

Lucy was given a new nickname recently. This one might stick.  We stopped calling her zombie baby because she stopped growling at us.  She babbles at us now.  But, I started calling her "Smushy."  I think it is clear from this picture how she got that name.  Those cheeks are sooooo SMUSHY and kissable.  Smushy sort of has the same ring to it as Lucy.  So she thinks it's a good nickname too.  She answers to it.  All the rest of the family has started calling her Smushy too.  I can see this is going to be embarrassing once she hits her teens.  I am sure it won't last past her toddler years ;-)
