Lincoln is 8 months

Lincoln is now 8 months and is so much fun.  His little personality is very evident.  He makes me smile.  Here are pictures of some recent happenings:

His new high chair.  He is so proud to have his own chair like his big sister's.  Cheerios is his favorite snack and he's pretty good at picking them up and eating them.

He got his first toothbrush and does a good job.  He loves it when I brush his gums.

He loves his teacher, Ms Cheryl.  We attend Lapsit every week.

He thinks it's hilarious looking at his reflection.

Eden does a good job teaching him how to play with his toys.  He is learning how to use a hammer.

Making Memories!

I've procrastinated putting pictures up from our tree decorating party.  We had so much fun decorating our Frazier Fur, eating sugar cookies, and drinking White Chocolate Dreamer.  Eden enjoyed unwrapping all the ornaments and laying them out.  She even chose one spot on the tree to put a cluster of ornaments, which I later spread out.

Ben helped Eden put her 1st Christmas ornament on the tree and Abby helped Lincoln put his on.

 

We look forward every year to the smell of evergreen and it's just fun to have a real tree.

Couldn't resist taking pictures of the kiddos.

'Olivia' aka Eden

I am so grateful that Eden loves to read books.  In fact, she has memorized a few of them.  Ben and I are so excited about one of Eden's Christmas presents this year (shh, don't tell her).  Ben was browsing the Children's section at Barnes & Nobles and discovered this book:

Olivia by Ian Falconer, Ian Falconer (Illustrator)

This book has Eden written all over it - same personality.  Olivia even has a little brother:)  Such a cute book.  I can't wait for her to open it.  We're looking forward to eventually getting the rest of the 'Olivia' books.
