"Baby clothes? Baby clothes?" Lucy said rummaging through the Brown's attic as the baby crawled around in awe. "Now where would that blockhead put the baby clothes?" she asked, turning towards the baby.
The baby clapped her hands happily and pointed at one of the untouched boxes. "Over here? Thanks, Lulu" Lucy smiled, opening it out. "I found the motherlode!" the fussbudget exclaimed.
"Momma?" 'Lulu' asked as Lucy turned towards the baby and picked her up.
"Lulu! You said 'Momma'! Your first word! I'm so very proud of you, my little Lulu! You'll grow up to be a wonderful girl, oh yes you will" Lucy cooed, tickling the baby's tummy.
"Momma! Momma! Momma!" 'Lulu' said happily, grabbing Lucy's nose and squeezing it.
"Lucy, what're you doing?" Sally asked, climbing into the attic to grab her diary, only to find Lucy talking to a baby girl.
"Sally, meet Lulu; Lulu, that's your Auntie Sally" the fussbudget introduced.
"Momma!" 'Lulu' called out, still soaking wet, but very happy.
"Auntie Sally? Lucy did you flip?" Sally asked, grabbing her diary and heading downstairs again.
"Maybe, but you spoke, Lulu! Lulu, you said 'Momma'! Your very first word! I'm touched! What a smart baby you are!" Lucy praised without noticing Charlie Brown walking into the attic with the ball.
"Charlie Brown, Lulu spoke! She said 'Momma'!" the fussbudget shrieked happily, placing the baby back on the ground.
"She did? Amazing" the lovable loser smiled as the baby pulled his strand of hair.
"You should've heard her. She's quite smart for a baby," Lucy explained.
"I noticed, strong too" Charlie Brown chuckled as 'Lulu' yanked off his curl of hair.
"Bbbllll" she giggled, falling onto her back.
"I found the baby clothes, Charlie Brown…she's gonna get cold in those wet things" Lucy explained, pulling out a small, red t-shirt and a pair of overalls with a zigzag across it.
"Good point, Lucy…I'll get her into those dry clothes," Charlie answered with a smile; but the baby fused a little.
"Come here, Lulu" the lovable loser called out as the baby girl crawled away.
After a small fuse and a fight, Charlie Brown managed to catch 'Lulu' and get her in the dry baby clothes. She fidgeted with the buckle of the overalls and giggled. "Momma!" she called out to Charlie.
"Pfft…'Momma'? I'm not a momma; I'm Charlie Brown" Charlie Brown chuckled as the door opened.
"Hey Chuck" a husky voice called out, alarming both Charlie Brown and 'Lulu'. "We have to talk"
"Hey Peppermint Patty, meet 'Lulu'…Lucy and I found her in the fountain at the park" explained Charlie Brown.
"Chuck, she's so adorable" examined the tomboy.
"Thanks, Patricia" replied Lucy as she walked towards the tomboy in the open toe sandals.
"What do you wanna talk about?" asked Charlie Brown.
"Have you two seen Marcie?" the freckled girl questioned.
"No, Patricia" responded Lucy.
"Sorry" replied Charlie Brown.
"You two were no help at all…how 'bout you, 'Lulu'…do you know where my friend Marcie is?" the tomboy desperately asked the baby.
"Bbbllll…Sir" exclaimed 'Lulu', alarming Patty a little.
"Lucille, I think I've gone mad but did that baby just call me Sir?" the freckled girl confessed to the fussbudget.
"No one's gone mad…I heard it too" added Charlie Brown as Lucy nodded her head in agreement.
"Probably nothing to worry about, Patricia" Lucy suggested. "She probably heard it from somewhere" she added.
"But…where?" asked the tomboy and round headed kid.
"Sounds like a mystery for the world Famous Detective" replied Snoopy.
"Wait! Where's Woodstock?" questioned the fussbudget.
"I put him in Sally's doll bed" Charlie Brown explained.
"Sir" 'Lulu' smiled to Patty, who sighed.
"Listen, I ALREADY have one kid calling me 'Sir', I don't need you to start either" Peppermint Patty sighed to herself.
