Almost Crawling

Lincoln has really started moving around. He

can pretty much get where he wants. He is

going to be crawling before we know it. We sure

love him and are excited for all the new things he is doing.

Updates!

Well we finally got moved out of our house, and

got moved into my parents basement. We

definately couldn't have done it without the help

of Liz and Andy who came from Oregon and

my family. We are so thankful for all that we

have and for the wonderful families we have.
While Liz and Andy were here we had the

opportunity to go to the polar express in Lindon

it was a lot of fun.

Here we are on the train.

It is a cozy little train.

It was a lot of fun.

The train ride dropped us off at the North

Pole and we got to see Santa and sing Christmas

Carols. Our little family with Santa.

Lincoln with Santa. He seemed okay with him.

He didn't even cry he just kind of looked at Santa

like "who is this guy". Isn't his snow suit cute

Grandma Michelle got it for him.

Liz and Andy with Santa.

After the Polar Express ride we went to Pizza

Factory for Dinner. We had a lot of fun. What

a nice Christmas Activity.

Help!

I need help. I am having the hardest time getting Lincoln to take any sort of a nap during the day. If any one has an advice on how to get him to take naps and would like to give me any pointers that would be great!

7 Months

Our little Lincoln is 7 months old and isn't he cute.

He has grown up so much. He has the best little

smile and is so happy to see mommy and daddy.

He loves his toys and his blankets.

He is finally starting to get more hair so I

decided to give him a little mowhawk. He also

has the cutest little expressions he has so many

different faces. I am sure he gets that from his dad.

Lincoln is also starting to sit up on his own. He

would much rather stand but when we can get him

on the floor he sits pretty good. I should have

taken a picture right after this because he fell

over and wasn't so happy. He isn't very good at

balancing yet. He is also rolling now and he is all

over the place and is so curious about the things

around him.

Let the packing begin!

We've started packing up our stuff. We have invested in plastic totes, just for this reason. As you can see, we already have a lot of stuff packed. We feel like it's a drop in the bucket though. Wish us luck! I guess we should add that we are not moving far but that Craig is probably going to start back to school up at the University of Utah next fall so we want to move a little closer to Salt Lake so he doesn't have to drive so far. For now we are going to move in with my parents and look for a house in Northern Utah County.

Dinner

Lincoln loves eating food. He was so messy yesterday

eating his dinner. For some reason he had to have his

hands in his mouth after each bite. He has been kind of fussy

lately so we are wondering if he is starting to get some teeth,

I guess we will see.

Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving this year. We stayed

here in Utah which hasn't happened for a really

long time. It was nice to just be home and relax.

It was just the six adults and Lincoln. Megan

and Tyler went to California we sure missed them,

but we are glad they had a good time.

We had lots of great food, more than we could

ever eat, but that is part of Thanksgiving right!

Our little family. I am so grateful for Craig and Lincoln

and all of our extended family.

This was Lincoln's first Thanksgiving he loved it.
We got him the cute Turkey bib and I fed him lots
of different food so that he wouldn't feel left out.

I got this cute Turkey idea from Hillary so I

decided to make them for my family.

They loved them and aren't they cute.

Outside!

We have recently been at my mom's house

helping her paint and one day Alex decided to

take Lincoln for a walk. We didn't have any

of our warm clothes there so we borrowed some.

Doesn't he look cute.

All bundled up. Lincoln loves walks.
Thanks Uncle Al your the best.
