4th of July

Better late than never...here are a few pictures of our July 4th adventures!

Waiting for fireworks

Still waiting

Lincoln really liked his glow in the dark accessories:)

After waiting an hour for the fireworks, Lincoln spent the majority of his time hiding behind his blanket. He didn't cry or act scared, he acted annoyed and a little disappointed that we liked the fireworks and he didn't.

As we walked back to the car, Ryan asked Lincoln if he liked the fireworks. His response? I wanna go see the horse poop on the street again.

Puddle Jumper

Lincoln has L-O-V-E-D his new lifejacket. Puddle jumpers are fantastic and have made taking Lincoln to the pool such fun. Here are a few shots from the pool!

Lakehouse

We made a quick trip to lake Texoma Saturday and Sunday. Lincoln enjoyed swimming in the lake, making smores and playing outside.

New Room

Who would have thought switching rooms would take so long. Lincoln's new room was our old office. We decided to leave the nursery in the same spot since we don't need to repaint. Plus, the nursery furniture fits so nicely in that room. Everything in this room is new! Lincoln has a new twin bed that he's been sleeping in for a few months now. It also has a trundle for an extra guest! Ryan built the shelf above his bed and the bookshelf was transplanted from his nursery. My Dad built this one for him from scratch. It's easily my favorite piece.

The bed and dresser are from Weirs. I stained the head board and foot board to make it a tad darker. The night stand is a FABULOUS Craig's list find....this item doesn't have a nick or scratch and is such a unique piece. We love it and the fact that we snagged it for $30!

I made the french memory board out of some scrap wood, fabric and jute. Lincoln keeps his cards, artwork, etc on the board.

The pictures above his closet are old A&M programs, one dating back to 1939.

I'm still on the hunt for an A&M football helmet and something to hang over his headboard. Hopefully this room will further feed his love for all things A&M!

Flashback - 29 weeks

July 3, 2010

So this is the long stretch towards the end...I'm enjoying a lovely mixture of pregnancy symptoms: heartburn, leg cramps, backache, fatigue, swollen hands and feet. I'm now seeing my doctor every two weeks and assume I passed my glucose test since I didn't hear back. The nurse said, no news is good news at this point! Come on September!
