Lincoln and I have been keeping busy the past few weeks with Christmas decorating and shopping. We even went to see Santa! That was a day in itself! We first went to see the Mall Santa and after waiting 30 mins for him to get back from his lunch break we discovered he was the Beach Bum Santa (dressed in a hawaiian shirt, swim trunks, and sneakers). So, we went on the hunt for the real Santa! Finally we found him at Pier Park at the beach of all places. Unfortunately by that time Lincoln was fast asleep.
Lincoln is getting so big now and developing a great personality. He is starting to smile at people (and the ceiling fans) a lot now. I am loving watching him change everyday!
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!!!

We had a great Thanksgiving this year! Our 4 1/2 hour drive turned into a bit longer trip, since we had to stop twice for Lincoln's feedings (and we got turned around a few times). We were so glad to finally make it! Lincoln was able to meet a lot of my family and we had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. Lincoln also got to see his first goat while we walked by the new pond at Aunt Belle's house. Overall it was a great day and a great trip.
Happy Football Day everyone! ROLL TIDE

Lincoln had his 2nd Doctor's Appointment on Monday. He has grown so much! He weighs 8.11 lbs and is 21.25 in long. He checked out good!
Lincoln is 3 weeks old today and we will be making our first big trip with him. We are going to Aunt Belle's for Thanksgiving dinner. It is a 4 1/2 hour drive, so I am sure we will be making lots of stops. :)

Lincoln is almost 2 weeks old now and has adjusted great to being home. He is sleeping better during the night, up to three hours at a time (well most nights anyway).
Lincoln has already been on a few outings with me and his Aunt Jamie. The car rides put him to sleep so going places with him so far has been pretty easy.
Lincoln also has already had a couple of baths. So far, he doesn't enjoy them. Hopefully that will change soon though!

Lincoln's 1st Day!
Lincoln James Bland was born at 8:53am on November 5th 2008. He weighed 7.3 lbs and was 19 inches long.
There were a few concerns after Lincoln was born. He had a fever and his white blood cell count was high, so he was taken to the NICU for the duration of our stay at the hospital. Luckily everything turned out fine and we were both released to go home that Friday night.
