Finally- 4!

I finally got around to scanning the other 2 pics from Lincolns 4 yr shoot...

Back to School

A neighbor of ours offered back to school mini sessions (Pinterest inspired), although Lincoln will be entering pre-K in a MDO program, I thought WHY NOT! They turned out super cute and I cant believe how close he is getting to actually starting school.

He starts Fall T-ball next week too, so maybe Ill have some updates to post. Seems silly to post here, and on FB, and on instagram... to many social media outlets!

Lately

Summer in my house is really no different than any time of year. I work from home and Joeys schedule doesn't change, so not much difference. However- it has been nice being able to take Lincoln to the pool after work every day- he loves it! He recently took lessons here at our pool an they went well. He loves to swim, the only problem is he is still to short to touch in our pool, even in the shallow end- so he likes to wear his life jacket. Here is Lincoln at his "first" dentist appt, it was actually his second, but the first time he never opened his mouth so this was a big improvement! Here he is getting ready for his 4 year pics Which turned out pretty good, here is one I scanned: I have become addicted to snow cones, especially since Bahama Bucks opened close to our house! Lincoln is not a big fan- he says they are too cold! We got Lincoln a trampoline, it has been sort of a disaster from the start, first my brother hit him in the head by accident when they were setting it up, then all the pieces were not in the box and we are still waiting on some to set up the enclosure. Hopefully one day it will be complete! That's our life in a nutshell- for now :)

Great Wolf Lodge

Every year we have taken Lincoln to Great Wolf Lodge to celebrate his birthday. This year was the first time he got to take a friend, MaKenna and Lincoln were born 1 week apart and have always loved spending time together! We had a great time as always, although I am still shocked that my baby boy is turning 4!

Hoppy Easter!

Lincoln had a great Easter weekend! He got to go to a egg hunt in our neighborhood:

And a big Easter egg hunt/ car show at the church:

Saturday night we dyed Easter egss for the first time!

Easter morning Lincoln got lots of goodies from the Easter bunny- he had an all things Angry birds theme this year:

And a living room egg hunt!

Looking EVERYWHERE!

Needed a little help getting some that were too high!

Playing his Angry Birds game:

Mommy and Lincoln- first thing in the morning (ick)

After that, we headed to Aunt Shawna's house and had ANOTHER egg hunt, then Lincoln got a basket of candy from Corbin and Gage's grandparents too- needless to say- our house is STOCKED with candy! We also had a yummy lunch. We ended the day with a trip to the grocery store to get ready for the week- seems silly that we had to grocery shop on a holiday, but life doesn't stop I guess :)

Getting better

His second game went much better! Maybe there is hope for this season yet. However, I am sure it is more of a day to day kind of thing :) It was a busy Saturday though, opening ceremonies at 11 and a game at 3. Of course, now that they are on a roll, there is a 2 week break due to Easter weekend. Oh well!

Cute...

So this t-ball thing is cute, and a good idea in theory- but its not working out so well. The more we practice and have games, the less Lincoln likes it. There is just not enough action, and he is SO bored, maybe soccer would have been better- either way, at this point I am just hoping he makes it through the season without refusing to play. In the meantime, he sure looks cute in his uniform :)

Ready for his first game

Daddy giving him a pep talk before the game

Lining the kids up in order of batters- not as easy as you'd think

He's ready!
