Thanksgiving Day!

It’s so nice having the Wednesday before Thanksgiving off work! We were having Aj’s family over on Thanksgiving day so Lincoln and I spent Wednesday cleaning the house. It was such a nice day – we even got the windows all washed! We took a break to go play with Lily for a little while:) On Thursday we were in charge of cooking the turkey so we fried it. Turned out so good!  After our Thanksgiving lunch everyone had a mini nap except for Kelli and I. We used the leftover turkey and made turkey and noodles- so good! Later the guys even got a game of bags in to continue holiday traditions. It was super windy so they ended up playing in the pole building. Lincoln had fun playing with his cousins for the day!

We put out a little table for more room. All morning Lincoln kept climbing on the chairs and trying to get on the table! Actually this whole Thanksgiving break he has been climbing on the couches and chairs and then onto the coffee table- what a stinker!

He always wants the main TV remote so we gave him an extra old one that Abby had partly chewed up. He has been in heaven playing with this thing!

Another pumpkin patch!

On October 14th we braved the little cold and went to Waverly to try out their pumpkin patch. We met Tyler, Amy, Mason and Amy’s mom. They had a lot of animals that Lincoln absolutely loved. We went on a hay ride and through the witch’s trails. It was a fun day!

my sock monkey man

This year Lincoln was a sock monkey! He never wanted to wear the hat inside (that’s how he is with all hats) but would wear it outside luckily. We went downtown and went trick-or-treating on one side. He had fun being pushed in his stroller. We went and said hi to some of the maintenance guys at their shop and Lincoln enjoyed his first sucker. It was cute watching him. He knew exactly what to do and licked it all the way gone! We made a couple stops after then Lincoln and I both were in bed at 7:30! That day just wiped me out!
