a little late posting!

I forgot I still haven’t showed some of Lincoln’s 6th month pictures daddy took (yes two months ago!). He did a great job! Now I still need to get these printed for our house.. hopefully before he turns 1 :)

my 8th month old!

Here we go, another month has come and gone! I swear in the last week Lincoln has changed so much! For a long time now he has always favored looking towards his right and we had constantly been working on him looking the other way. Then he would look more left but had his head still tilted. Now all of a sudden his head is normal like a big boy! They said once he gets more mobile this would fix itself and it finally did. Whew! Here is a list of things Lincoln is doing and loves these days:

-LOVES to eat!! There hasn’t been one thing he doesn’t like yet!

-Absolutely loves to be tickled and cracks up laughing

-He adores his dogs and puts his hands out now for them. He opens his mouth up when Abby comes up to him to kiss him (we need to put an end to that one!)

-Rolling back and forth all the time, reaching for everything, always ending up in a different spot. This week in his crib he now rolls over and sleeps on his tummy. I love walking in on him with his toosh all scrunched up in the air :)

-Getting better and closer at sitting up. He does it for longer periods of time now before tumbling over.

-He loves to be outside! If he is fussy inside and I walk outside with him, he automatically is calmed down. So we do this often:)

-Completely loves riding in daddy’s jeep

-His fussiness is better but still has quite the little attitude!

-He got put back on medicine this month for acid reflux so that has been a little better.

-Lincoln has two bottom teeth and his two top teeth are coming out!

-This boy loves to sleep! He is a super night time sleeper. He goes to bed between 8:00/8:30 and sleeps till 7:00/7:30. Naps fluctuate a little between an hour to sometimes even 3 hour nap for the morning and usually 1 1/2 hour nap in the afternoon.

-This boy has hair again!!

Life is good :)

Spring Break

The weekend started off celebrating miss Lily’s first birthday party! It was one cute party! Monday and Tuesday I got some things accomplished around the house and then got ready for our little trip to Lake of the Ozarks. We left around 5:30 Tuesday evening and picked up Neal and Josiah for the trip. We were then off to visit Dale and Becky Geerdes. We hadn’t seen them since July, and Lincoln was very excited to meet them! We came back on Sunday. Lincoln did great in the car and the whole week. We had a lot of fun relaxing, boating and lots of shopping!
