Life as of Late and Happy Days!
Things have been pretty heavy these last few weeks, so I wanted to give a little update on all of us!
Thomas started training a new class today at work. It's an 8 week course, but he's in Denver this round and boy am I thankful! I am traveled out! While I love to travel, I am glad we are at home in our own bed and not living out of suitcases. After this Summer, we are all traveled out!
Thomas leaves early for the office so he can plan his day. He also gets home fairly late as well. I've been very spoiled with him working from home recently, so this is a big change. The good news is that I have a little bit of extra time to make dinner (or nap, blog, and Netflix! ;) )
Lincoln is nonstop and all over the place. He has 12 teeth and just busted out 4 molars in the last couple weeks. This kid is a champion. I didn't even notice them at first! They were coming in so quickly that his gums were even bleeding. He's such a trooper. He is climbing on top of EVERYTHING. If it's 2 inches off the ground, he's on top of it. He even tried giving his 8 inch punching man action figure a piggyback ride the other day! His activity table is just a step stool to his toddler table. He even uses his monkey skills to climb up onto the bed. He has fairly good balance, so I don't foresee any hospital visits (knock on wood!). I also have the parenting style of "Well...if he falls and hurts himself, he won't do it again!" I get a lot of strange looks and people are often surprised that he's my first. But it works for us!
These days I am busy with meetings with MOPS (Moms of Preschoolers), spending time with my friends, nannying, and being a mom! It's the best job ever. I am so glad I get to watch my bub grow. Sometimes he drives me bonkers, but he makes up for it in kisses.
Life is getting somewhat back to normal. Thomas has more of a routine at the office, so Lincoln and I are getting up earlier in the day. I'm attempting a new routine with him, so we'll see how that goes! He's a night owl and a very sporadic napper, so I'm trying to fix his wonky schedule. Hopefully we find a new groove soon. If anyone has any tips or tricks to getting a crazy toddler on a good routine, send them my way!
We love you all!
