Sweet summertime!

Yay!! Finally time for swimsuits and cookouts! I wondered what Lincoln would think about the pool, so we started him out in a kiddie pool. Oh my goodness, did he love that thing! I think he woulda stayed in there all day!

So yesterday, I got him in the real pool. I put his lifejacket on just incase, but it was all in his face, so after a few minutes, I took it off. He was in Heaven! He was kicking and splashing like crazy! I guess the pool is a hit with this kiddo... This weekend will be our first trip to the lake, we'll see how he takes to that water...

Mom took this picture for us since I (like a dummy) forgot a Mother's Day pic. Could you not just eat him up?
Uncle Nathan really got Lincoln going by singing the "Pants on the Ground" song. I know, that's really weird... Funny thing is, it's Lincoln's favorite song. Ashley sings it to him a lot, and it just cracks him up (btw-if you work with Ash, you should get him to sing his version.... It is quite entertaining...)

Lincoln also really put on a show for Great Gran and Pap Douglas...

Ridin on Paps shoulders

Every Wednesday night is our "Girl's night" (well, not so much just "girls" anymore, now it's more like "girls night with two 7 month old boys, and a 1 year old baby girl" but thats just too long, so we'll keep it "girls night") Anywhos, poor Lincoln and Ashton just have to tolerate our gossip and girly banter. See, Lincoln is clinging to Ashton in this picture almost as to say - "Hey buddy, come on, let's break outta here!" I'm sure Lincoln will be glad to accompany dad to "Golf night" as opposed to "Girls night" when he's old enough...

Obviously this was a couple weeks ago, I just couldn't help posting because he looks SO FREAKIN BIG in this picture! I don't think he's a very chubby baby, but he sure is LONG!
At our 6 mo. visit, Lincoln was 73% weight (20 #) and 91% height (28 1/2 inches).

And we are now working on tooth #5... I can't believe it! He's like a miniature shark compared to my friend's kids!

Also, when you read someone's blog, you open yourself up to "to much information" syndrome. So, since you asked for it, I have to tell an interesting story. Yesterday morning, Lincoln pooped on the potty. That's right folks. I sat him on his potty and the grunting ensued. Yes, it was hilarious. Yes, I had to wake Ashley up to show him. Yes, I took pictures (Lincoln asked me to save those for our private album). And YES, I am certifiably nuts... But it sure is fun!
