Waking up from his naps.



For a few weeks now Lincoln has been sitting up in his crib when he's either not interested in sleeping or after his naps. Sometimes this is funny, and other times it is not. And then when he gets up, he's on the move. Sitting still and playing is a thing of the past. He's also back to eating a ton of food at each meal now that our sickness of last week has passed... and he's more and more interested in feeding himself.

On Monday Jenn had a dinner at Hyde Park with her clinic and that left me to take care of the evening routine with Lincoln. It started with a dinner of left-overs at Grandma Paulette & Grandpa Doug's house. I wasn't sure how Lincoln would take his evening bottle after he ate the turkey and biscuits, and the near 100 Cheerios that his Grandpa Doug gave to him, but he took the bottle like it was the last thing on earth.

Today, Jenn fed him tofu bites rolled in crushed Cheerios... it would have been an Enviro-weenie's dream. Most of it made it in his mouth. We've just got one funny eating story after another here at our place.


Easter is approaching. We've got some fun family plans coming. It's also a neat time to especially focus on Jesus and his resurrection.
And speaking of Easter, this is one of my favorite Easter songs. For those of you who know me from way back, you'll remember that the Gates Family has been big Carman fans for a long, long time.

What a blast from the past from Carmen! And what an encouragement that He is ALIVE! I have really loved your all's blog (as one of Em's college-friend fans)and Lincoln is just precious! John & I are expecting a baby boy in a matter of 4 more weeks, if he comes on time...so I have a learned a lot from your all's experience! Take Care, Keely
