Lincoln Seven Months

Oh, our sweet sweet Lincoln...is now seven months old! He is rolling from one end of the room to the other, sitting unassisted and (when he fees like it) drinking from a sippy cup! He's graduated to eating meats and regularly turns the pages of his story books when we read to him. And he even got his first tooth!

That smile will just melt your heart. He is such a sweet boy...although he does have an incredible temper and has no problems telling you where to go when he's upset. But most of the time he's happy and sweet. Teething has brought out the "whine-factor" recently and I'm not too pleased with that. I've realized I have low whine tolerance!

He has SO many facial expressions and he's very dramatic (wonder where he gets that from). We crack up at his various "looks"- like this one above for example. There is pure trouble in that face!

Another hilarious facial expression- the "zone out." I've seen kids do this before (mainly when watching TV) but a baby? He does this all the time...you'll be interacting and then all of a sudden..."zone out." Its as if he's suddenly thought of something that requires all of his brain power to think about...either that or suddenly he's realized you are boring him to tears.

I love this shot of my boys- taken on a random Saturday afternoon. They are so super cute together, my heart melts.

And those fat little leg rolls! I love those and will be very sad when he starts moving more and they disappear...although I never did manage to get rid of mine so maybe they'll stick around ; )

I can't get enough kisses from my boy! I probably kiss him 20 times a day, at least! Oh, well I'm the mom- I can do what I want.

So, what have we been up to for month seven? Well we've been having some issues on the home-front. I won't go into too much detail but its been a rough month for us. Hubs and I both have some pretty big work stress going on right now...money is tight and we're both burning the candle at both ends if you will. Things could be totally worse so I hate to complain too much....but its just been a rough month.
