Summer Days

Lincoln and I have been busy during these summer days!  We have been going to the park, the bounce place (once b/c it was pure craziness), the local aquatic center, the mall, and playing outside in the yard.  I have failed to take any pictures of those events because chasing a toddler keeps me 100% busy and I have no time to be taking pictures.  I did shoot these pictures the other day while lounging around our house in our PJ's.



By far his favorite book right now...From Head to Toe by Eric Carle



I think he is trying to do the itsy-bitsy spider or call the hogs...it all looks the same!

He loves for me to put a cape on him so he can run around like a super-hero

Sweetest.face.ever.

One blessed momma.

It is no secret that I am one blessed momma.  I am blessed with the incredible opportunity to be Lincoln's mom.  I still find myself watching him and thinking, "Does he really belong to me?"  Crazy!  He is such a fearless ball of energy whose philosophy is "the bigger the crowd the better."  Cory and I are convinced he is a combination of our brothers with his extroverted personality.  Not only am I blessed to a momma but I also have the privilege of having a wonderful mother myself.  She has helped me tremendously in guiding me in my new role as a mom.  And it is no secret that I give her a hard time but as I told her this weekend I was put in her life to keep her humble :)  Although, a piece of humble pie is the last thing my mother needs!  She has a true servant's heart and contrary to Lincoln's philosophy she believes the smaller the crowd the better!

Excited to show off my new snazzy watch

I heart this little man!

{We are also blessed to have a great Mother/MIL (for me) who takes great care of us and keeps us in line!  We love you Mimi!  See you soon!}
