one month, new camera and lots of pictures

Lincoln was one month old on September 15th! At one month he weighed 6lbs 1oz. I did the best we could with a little photo shoot on daddy at the hospital!

Lincoln finally came home last Wednesday the 21st. Words can’t express how happy we are to all be home together. We got a new camera and have enjoyed taking gobs of pictures!


Today he had a checkup. I was nervous to take him all by myself. AJ stuck around to help get us out the door. Everything went pretty smooth!

a few firsts

Wednesday August 24th was Lincoln’s first bath in the sink. AJ was holding him before and we decided to just undress him while still being held.


Here are some pictures as we began this fun process!

Now right after this I attempted to take off his diaper… and this became the first time we got peed on! It was a straight shot to daddy Smile I covered him and then opened his diaper figuring he was done. Nope.. I think this happened 3 times! I have learned my lesson now!


Lincoln really liked his bath and was content the whole time.

On Monday August 29, Lincoln moved up to a big boy bed – an open crib!! This just makes everything a little easier!

I have also now started nursing him twice a day. We are still in the beginning stages and can’t wait until that light just turns on and he gets it all the time!! This morning was actually the best so far. Dr. keeps saying we are working on quality not quantity right now Smile He is continuing to gain weight and is 5lbs 1oz !
