4 Weeks Old!

Our Lincoln is almost 1 month old, he hit 4 weeks yesterday! He is up almost 3 lbs in one month; he is on a mission to skip right through my 0-3 month clothing collection. Lucky for him my 3-6 month collection is quite extensive. :)

He's not much into baby talk, but he does grunt well. I've been telling him that he needs to add some better baby sounds to his vocabulary, we'll see if he takes his Mom's advice to heart or not.

Lincoln is still an expert roller (from tummy to back). We joke he can crawl because he can scoot forward about a foot if you leave him on the floor. It does take him some time though! He is also becoming more engaged with his toys. He can hit them (perhaps accidentally, but it still counts... right?) and will spend half an hour staring at his play mat on a good day. Staring, staring, staring... taking it all in. His brother Bentley cheers him on and tells him what a great job he's doing. Sometimes he even grabs his arm and helps him punch the toys!

He loves people and being held. He likes staring at faces. And, of course, his favorite activity? Eating. Or sleeping. Or maybe eating WHILE sleeping? Hmmm...

He's a good looking sleeper:

Yes, yes. That's more sleeping baby pictures. But he spends at least two thirds of his time sleeping!

We're looking forward to seeing what the next 4 weeks bring, it's hard to believe how quickly babies grow. So we're taking lots of pictures and trying to enjoy every minute of it.

We love you, Baby Lincoln! We're so glad you're here and a part of our family.
