This month Lincoln: He is stupidly ballsy. He always has been but this month, even more so. He will stand on anything. For example: a chair, a 24 pack of water bottles, a box of diapers, the couch next to the edge, ugh. Anything. Yes, he has fallen and scared me many times. He has no fear. He is my kissy, cuddly, sweet and loving but wild baby. Haha. He's becoming a big kid. :(



Milestones: His new words this month: bruder (brother), what's this, no, mine (thanks to his bruder..). Besides those he says: Mommy, Dada, baby, bye, hi, hey, stop it, owie, puppy, night night, and repeats other stuff we say. He actually sits in chairs now with falling over or getting off the chair constantly.


(FAVORITE PHOTO!)


Eating: He eats vegetables now! Yay! I've finally gotten him to eat more veggies. He's been actually eating them with every meal except breakfast, including raw broccoli. I'm afraid of many other raw veggies because he still only has 6 teeth (4 tops and 2 bottom).



Sleep: He has been going to sleep earlier and waking up earlier. He's been going to sleep at or before 8. Then, he's been waking up between 8 and 9. He's been napping around noon/one, super long naps. Maybe he's having a growth spurt! 




Clothing: He still wears size five shoes and 18-24 month old clothes. 18 month old shirts are getting too small. He has a couple pairs of 12 month old pants left that still fit his little legs.

Wordless (ish) Wednesday: St. Marys waterfront park last week!

0 comments
Last Wednesday we went to the waterfront in downtown Saint Marys with some of my in-laws. We were getting photos taken by a family friend, Michelle. 

I don't consider myself a photographer. There is a TON I need to learn. Plus, I thought it would rude to take photos when she was so I just took photos of my kids at the park.








Photographers, are their certain settings that are good for movement such as swinging? I have this camera. Like I said, I have a lot to learn.









 Favorite photo of him ever!

Help! Play room decor!

0 comments
I have asked for help on my blog multiple times and never seem to get a response. I'm hoping I have loyal readers but honestly, I'm not so sure.

We have pretty recently moved. The boys are sharing a room and the third room is their play room. Every room in the house is boring and lacks decoration. We are working on changing this. 

Anyways, the boys play room, in my opinion, is in desperate need of art on the wall. I have pinned a few ideas of easy art work but I would also like some framed printables. I would love some help! Link me to prints, diy artwork, etc!

Here's what their play room looks like right now (more in the link).
