Sorry it's been a while...

For the last month and a half whenever anything happened, I would think "I should blog that" but then I didn't. So, I'll try to catch you up on our life.
Lincoln turned 11 MONTHS OLD today!! I remember seeing one of my friend's little boy who was about two years old and I told her how big he was getting and she responded with "don't blink". I had no idea how right she was! I don't know where the time went! My little baby is about to be a year old- that's a toddler! I love the stage he is in but I can't believe he is not a little baby anymore. He is crawling all over the place (even though he would rather be walking) and gets into EVERYTHING he is not supposed to. He LOVES remotes, paper, piles of DVD's, mail, Christmas trees, etc. He is getting to be a big eater. He's a pretty good sleeper and usually sleeps from 7ish to 7ish and usually wakes up to eat about 5 or 6ish. He cut his first tooth!! Better late than never! And we LOVE him to pieces!
And by the way... a month ago he turned 10 months old! Here is his picture I didn't blog!

We spent Thanksgiving morning at my mom's house then went to Thanksgiving dinner at Russ's aunts house in Logan. It was so great to see both sides of our family and to be with them on Thanksgiving.

Lincoln has loved spending a little more time with his cousins. Here's a picture of Link with his cousin Briggy- they are only a month and a half apart in age! Other random things that have happened in the last month and a half-

*Black tongue: Russ woke up one day with a black tongue. We had no idea what was wrong with him! He said the only thing he knew that was associated with a black tongue was the Black Plague. I googled it and learned that you can get a black tongue if you take certain medications such as pepto bismol. Crazy, huh?! So Russ is okay and doesn't have the black plague!

*Preschool: I've been working at the Preschool along with the intermediate school the past couple months and LOVE it! I love being back there and working with the incredible staff and cute kids! It's been busy being back almost full time but it's been a great experience!

*Date night: Russ and I are really bad at having date nights... we never do. But we decided to have one and 'go big or go home' so we went to Salt Lake, went to dinner at the Olive Garden, walked around the gateway, and stayed at the Anniversary Inn (if you haven't been there- I highly recommend it). It was so great to go on a date night (I highly recommend them as well) and be with my incredible husband!

*Graduation: Russ is graduating! Russ took his last class this semester and is OFFICIALLY graduating with two bachelors degrees in Philosophy and Religious Studies! We are so proud of him!! His plan right now is to keep going to school to get his MBA. It's been busy and will continue to be so but it will be worth it.

*Birthday: Russ had a BIRTHDAY! We worked all day but went to MADDOX with his parents that night. Good times were had by all!
