ELEVEN months!!

I seriously can't take this any longer!  This baby is almost ONE!  Why does the time fly by so fast!?  Our little Lincoln is such a sweet baby and we love him to PIECES!!!  This is what I can tell you about my Linky-doo at eleven months:

*He crawls fast! 

*He stands up and cruises on everything...even your legs if your just standing there!

*He goes up and down stairs really well.

*He is starting to "talk" more with cute little baby sounds.  mamama, dadada, blah, blah, blah.

*He LOVES it when you get down on the floor with him.  He immediately smiles and crawls over to you and climbs all over you.  He loves climbing all over his family!

*He loves to squawk and then have Carson and Bryn imitate him.  He'll repeat this forever!

*He still doesn't have ANY teeth!  Maybe he'll walk before he gets his first tooth...we'll see!

*He can eat whatever, but doesn't necessarily like everything.

*He loves to play in the kitchen cabinets, which led to some cabinet locks put on, except for a few kid-friendly ones.

*He is soo happy!!!

And here he is at his eleven month photo shoot on the couch!

  This is what it really looks like when we're trying to take pictures of the kids :)

And of course, the other kiddos at eleven months:

10 months!

No matter what I tell him, Lincoln just keeps on growing!  And pictures are getting more and more difficult!  We had Carson help this time. 

And here's what Lincoln is doing at 10 months:

-doing a "real" crawl and getting FAST!

-climbing up stairs and now climbing down them too!

-eating lots of table food...pretty much everything...and with not a single tooth!

-so fun and playful!

And a few comparison pictures of the other kiddos.

Halloween 2011

Halloween is still one of our all time favorite times of year around our house!  This year we had a vampire....

And a princess....

Little Lincoln was suppose to be a garden gnome, but we never had a chance to dress him up.  We had a few families from the neighborhood come over for dinner and then trick-or-treating...it was great!

Nine Months!!!

This is what pictures look like when you try to get an active nine month old to cooperate!  Lincoln is getting more active by the minute!  He is still a sweet and happy baby and we love him more every day!

Here's what he can do at NINE months:

-army crawls everywhere!

-climb up a couple of stairs

-pull up on everything...and start to cruise too!

-say mama and blah-blah...he doesn't know what he's saying, of course

-eat any kind of food!

-use a sippy cup

-laugh at his brother and sister!

i hate taking family pictures...but I LOVE these!!!!

When I think of taking family pictures, I just cringe!  I don't know why, it's just so difficult to do with children...let alone three of them!  But I knew I had to have my awesome friend Jen take some and put my worries aside.  And boy am I glad I did!  She helped me pick out our outfits and accessories and my other friend Jessica did my hair (and plucked my eyebrows for the first time ever!).  Jen NAILED it!!!  I couldn't be happier with our photos!  She is so layed back to work with and great with the kiddos!  So, if you come over to my house and the walls are plastered with photos of my family it's because I'm SOOO excited about them and can't wait to show them off!!!  If you live in VA and need a photographer, check out Jen!  Just look how great these are!

We love Hershey Park!!!

We had another awesome time at our annual trip to Hershey Park!  Unfortunately this year, nobody could come with us.  But, we still had a blast!!  The kids love Hershey Park and so do we!!!
