long napper...

Sun in face...oops. Gettin' ready to go on a walk!

1st Colts game with Daddy!

Sportin' the Abe Lincoln onesie from Aunt Sindi!


I know, I know...2 posts in one day!? I'm crazy! But since I've got the house all picked up and the little man is STILL napping (going on 2 hours now) here are a few more pics to put a smile on your face! We just love this precious little guy! Love to you all!

catching up

I always feel like I'm catching up. ha! So this blog thing has become harder than I expected. I thought it would be easy to snag a few minutes to blog at least weekly...well that's not been possible here lately! Lots of stuff going on and I've been bad about taking pictures of it all too. I'm going to work on that though!

Summer is now winding down and our baby boy is now 4 months old! Where has the time gone? Lincoln is just growing so fast. He's learning new things everyday and Lucas and I are just completely amazed. We are starting to see more of his personality. So far he seems to be fairly reserved. He's not too loud...although he can be at times. But he simply likes to just sit back and take everything in. He's gotten very good at rolling over from his belly to his back and he's so close to going from his back to the belly which makes changing his diaper harder everyday! :) He can sit supported on our glider or the couch. He loves his exersaucer (has since about 3 months). Lucas and I say it's his "job" because he takes it very seriously! He's very good at smacking the right buttons to here noises!

At his 4 month check-up on September 1st he weighed 15 pounds and 6 ounces and was 25 1/2 inches long! He is right on track!

Lincoln also really enjoys stroller rides. We go on walks around town almost daily. He loves to just kick his feet up on the tray and relax and watch the world go by! Most of the time he is just a happy, content, little man! He still likes to stick his tongue out a lot, especially when he smiles. When people talk to him he smiles really big and then turns and burries his head as if he is shy...it's pretty cute! :) And another one of his favorite things to do right now is sit and watch Lucas play. He will sit and focus on Luc's hands playing the bass. He already loves music and likes to "sing" along! :)

New things we are going to try this week include taking 4 month picture (since he's now almost 4 1/2 months! sheesh). Also we are going to let him explore his "Johnny Jumy Up!" We think he will love it. And the doctor says he can now try food so we might try that later this week. He still nurses quite a bit, but I think adding in some extra and learning to eat with a spoon will be good for him! We will try and see if he's ready.

Because I am so behind on photos... here are the pics I took at 1, 2, and 3 months...4 month pics to come! Hopefully I will also get some other ones up too!
