Alias: LaLa and Peaches

We have had a fairly lazy Saturday here so far, John drove up to manchester airport this morning to pick up Uncle Alex, who met the Lucy for the first time. Mom and Dad also came up for a little while to visit, and brought us a swing, which Dad took it upon himself to put together. The goal with the swing is to help put Lucy to sleep when John and I can't. We'll see how that works. John has taken it upon himself to decide that Dad (David)'s grandfather name is going to be Peaches ... for reasons that none of us truly understand. But as John said, he has made few decisions he really put his food down about concerning the baby thus far, so this one he's holding firm on. We'll see. It would make my parents "LaLa and Peaches", and Frank and Genie "Grandpa and Grandma". We'll see how that goes. 

Lucy had an amazing night last night, had to be awoken for all of her feedings because she slept so soundly otherwise. Which of course meant that all three of us got a great amount of sleep - a really nice change from the night before. 

Tonight at 8pm, Grandpa Frank's plane gets in from Europe, which means that either when he gets home tonight or first thing in the morning, he will meet his granddaughter for the first time. Frank is thrilled about this - I'm not sure Lucy notices much other than how she's slept and when breakfast/snack/lunch/snack/dinner/snacktime is, but oh well. So tomorrow I will definitely get some photos of Lucy and Frank meeting, for now I have shots of my family and their encounters with the LucyBear for today.
