Lincoln is officially a crawler now. I saw it yesterday with my own two eyes. And he's doing it with ease. Having a mobile little boy in the house changes things: Can we leave the Wii on the floor anymore? Where can we put the dogs' toys? Why does he voluntarily bump his head on the coffee table, and will he decided to bump it harder if I'm not around to watch? These are the questions that went through my head the first time I saw him crawl across the floor.
And then...
When I got home from work today, Jenn had just put Lincoln down for a nap, but he was still making some noise (not unusual), and then he started crying very loudly (again, not unusual). So we went to his door to see if he was sitting up, and to our surprise, he was standing up! He has now officially learned to pull himself up. Two weeks ago he couldn't crawl forward to save his life, and now he's pulling himself into a standing position. Holy cow!

Chris and Val are coming over for dinner tonight, and Jenn is in the process of planning a really good dinner. We're looking forward to it. I understand we'll be adding a new element to our get-togethers this evening. We always have hours of great conversation, some good wine-tasting, the usual sprinkling of political banter... but tonight we're adding Mario Kart on the Wii. Nothing but high-brow entertainment for us!
I received Aaron and Randi's wedding invitation yesterday and I just had to laugh. If you know Aaron (for those outside the family, Aaron Bradley is my cousin from Denver), you wouldn't be surprised by the not-so-subtle humor sprinkled through the envelope. Anyway, Emily and I are both going to the wedding, and it is actually pretty convenient because there is a Frontier flight from Nashville and one from Akron that arrive in Denver within 15 minutes of each other. So we're both headed out to the Rocky Mountain Wedding and really looking forward to it.
