Adventures of our Crazy Life is right. We've been a little crazy and silly lately so I haven't posted in a while but here's a few pictures to recap what's been going on lately. Lincoln is now 8 months old, wowzer, what a big boy. He is sitting up on his own, spending over 5 minutes playing with one toy, eating all sorts of food, taking regular naps during the day, and we think trying to break so more teeth through. He's been uber fussy this last weekend so hopefully they just come out and he can relax again. The top three pictures are from March 3rd. In the first one he looks so much like Daddy, and in the third one he looks a lot like Dylan. I love seeing his personality come out! Last night we but together Lincoln's crib. He's still sleeping in the pack 'n play in our room during the night, but we put the crib together so he can start napping in there and hopefully transition when he is fully sleeping through the night. So of course I had to grab the camera and snap a picture of his first nap. I think he likes to be able to stretch out more, esp. since he is so roll-y now.
My oldest son just turned 7 and since we are watching every cent going out I tried to be as creative as possible when coming up with the birthday of a life time (until next year). Do: Make Them Feel Important Without Spending Money Waffles with chocolate syrup for breakfast are ok on a special day like this! (I love using a pizza cutter to slice waffles and pancakes for the little guys, especially Lincoln who is still learning to feed himself with a fork) Measuring on the wall of fame, we only write on it once a year now to make it exciting. Dylan grew about 3.25 inches in one year! This momma gets tired quicker than ever being 30+ weeks pregnant and chasing after a rowdy toddler so I didn't do the fanciest cakes (remember the volcano cake from birthday 4 or the mint chocolate chip cupcakes from last year) but I did find some cute stickers that have been in the house for years, put a matching one on both sides of a flat tooth pick and voila, cupcakes to compete with the best ...
What a great little baby boy. Well, maybe soon I'll be able to see him and the rest of you more.
