IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!

So much has happen in just a few short weeks since I last wrote. Linc is on the move and is seeking to master his walking abilities. It all started with that durn lion with wheels his Nanna gave him for Christmas. He loves that Lion and sometimes gets upset if we pull him away from it or if anything gets in his way including a wall (he is getting good at throwing little temper tantrums which Trisha insists comes from my side). After mastering pushing that Lion all over the house (well not actually master because he hasn't figured out how to turn it) he would start to let go and stand there. He would stand only when he was distracted by something. As soon as he realized that he standing by himself he would drop right to the floor. We were fortunate enough to both be at the house watching him when he took his first 3 steps. He has greatly progressed from there but mostly we walks around the couches so he has something to grab onto. When he does brave his way from the couch his head gets his head to far forward after a few steps and goes tumbling to floor with a smile on his face. There are a few times when he is going slow enough that he can stay standing after taking 3-4 steps. He is always proud of himself after walking even if he has fallen.

We have had to buy a new trash can with a lid because he was getting into it (as with anything else that isn't tied down). Trisha found him one day with the trash tip over and he was licking the old lids to his baby food. I guess we will make sure to feed him more.

I have been trying to get some pictures of him walking but the camera is a little slow, so hopefully I will have some to post here over the next few weeks, or I will try and figure out the whole posting video thing. I am a called a nerd by some, so I should be able to figure it out.

More photos

Just more photos of everyone's favorite boy

We have been AWAL

So we have been neglectful of our blogger but I have repented and promise to be more diligent about keeping everyone updated. So much has happened since our last post. Mostly everyone is interested in Lincoln so I will give update on him.

Lincoln is growing so fast it crazy. He goes from not being able to sit up to sitting on his own to army crawling all over the place it seems in a matter of a few weeks. It hard to imagine that he was ever weighed 8 pounds and had to be held for everything.

Linc now has a 5 teeth. Trisha discovered the his first tooth on our way home from Darin's and Holly's house. He has been a happy baby through it all no major fussing with his teething. He is a funny kid he only wants to chew on his hand, mom or dad's hand or his blanket. He absolutely has no interest in any teething ring or his binky anymore.

He started off with an army crawl which was the funniest thing. His legs kick and flail as he using his arm to get to exactly where he wants to be. He use to only pull himself to the tv remote or a cell phone but now it it looks slightly interesting he moving towards it. And know that he has figured out how to crawl there is no stopping him. Linc loudly lets us know if we pull him away from something he thinks he needs. The dishwasher is his favorite. He protests every time we close it.

Christmas in Casper was was awesome with all 26 of us in Mom and Dad's house. The trip there and back left something to be desired (not the company we were with but the length of the drive we love you Josh and Terra). It was great being home and hang out with the family and I just enjoy everyone company. Linc was more interested in the wrapping paper than he was with any of his presents, but that is how it goes the simple things in life are the greatest. Lincoln is such a joy to watch and a really happy baby.
That is about it with us. I am working hard on trying to get the clinic busier. Trisha is at work right now and enjoying the nursing program (as much as you can enjoy studying between work, school, Linc and trying to get enough sleep).I will be posting once a week now either Saturday or Sunday. Looking forward to keeping everyone updated. I know I left a ton out but we'll be better promise. Here are a few pics to bring everyone up to speed.
