Fun-Filled Saturday


What a busy Saturday! We started off the day with a Cinnamon roll and a little Mickey Mouse and snuggling - can't beat that! Gymnastics was next, and Lincoln was ready for the fun. Doesn't he look like the biggest kid! He was definitely ready to hit the door when we stopped for a pic. (I know, he's wearing shorts and a t shirt in January! It's indoors people!!!!)
Linc still really loves gymnastics. They jump on the trampoline, walk the balance beams, swing on the bars, practice forward rolls and run down the tumble track. This week they even had a bounce house for fun! Lincoln was pretty intimidated at first and wouldn't go in . . . then he saw there were balls in there. He darted in through the tunnel and bounced right back out seconds later carrying a ball from inside! He didn't want to jump - he just wanted a ball!

After lunch and a nap, we headed to a baby shower for Kevin and Veronica. They are expecting their own little bundle of joy in about 5 weeks, so Linc had to show them what to look forward to! He sampled their snacks and checked out the doggie for a bit. He made a new friend, Tyler, who had a cool robot book. Before long, Tyler pulled out his fancy Nintendo (do they still call them Nintendos these days?), and Lincoln was totally amazed!

He sat paralyzed while Tyler played and explained about the game. Where do we get one of these???? I began explaining early in the afternoon that we were going to a shower, but Linc was very confused. He said "shower? water?" I changed my story and said we were going to a party, and that made much more sense. Lincoln helped me pick out some of his favorite books at the store to give Baby Whitener. I hope they enjoy them like we do. Thanks for inviting us!

What a fun and happy Saturday! We also did lots of playing with Lego Abby and Lego Elmo and our construction set. Baby Beau really racked up today too. He got a crib, dresser, chest, and mattress. Apparently there was a big sale going on - we took full advantage! (Linc tested out the new crib in the store and said it passed!) We'll be excited for our new furniture to arrive soon, along with our precious baby boy to go with it! It was a busy day!
