18 MoNtHs!!





So not only was yesterday our anniversary but it was also the day this boy turned 18 months. I can't even believe it..I remember thinking Carson was so big and getting so "old" when he turned 18 months. I think the exact opposite here, I still feel like this boy is my baby and am truly wondering where the time has gone.

Lately Carson's many events have been hogging my blog, that kid has had alot going on. So I wanted to take a second and focus on my baby bujao. 18 facts about my little 18 month old.

1. HE WEARS ME OUT. First and foremost, I can't even stand how much I love him....but by the time my head hits the pillow each night I feel like I have ran a marathon. My mother in law watched my kids the other day, and said "No wonder you stay so skinny, chasing after Lincoln". Haha...sad but true.

2. He says everything, truly everything. He is an awesome talker..I could go on and on naming all the different words and phrases this kid already is saying. My favorite....I ove, ove uuuuu (I love you).

3. Has the deepest little voice. Makes me laugh, Carson's has always been high pitched, Lincoln is just the opposite.

4. Horrible eater. I swear, can't I just get one kid that actually enjoys food. You would think I was trying to poison him by the way he reacts.

5. Gets great big alligator tears when you have hurt his feelings...makes it hard to stay mad.

6. Burps ALL the time, seriously....this kid is all boy.

7. Has turned into the best little sleeper. Sleeps from 9:30-7:00 almost every single night (in his own crib, might I add.)

8. Thinks the word "no" doesn't apply to him. He seriously has no boundaries...he is so defiant and does things just to get a reaction out of me.

9. Loves candy....the one thing he never turns away. I now have to hide my candy dish from him, otherwise he climbs up on the counter and helps himself.

10. The only two people who can make him truly laugh is his brother and his dad. I can get a chuckle out of him, but not that deep belly laugh.

11. Would like to live outside...preferably right smack in the middle of the street. Thinks it would be awesome to get ran over by a car.

12. The king of temper tantrums...he goes on and on and on.

13. Loves to cuddle when he is tired or sad. Lays his little head on my shoulder and pats my back.

14. Gives the sweetest kisses ever, open mouth and all.

15. Has a huge smile, lights up his entire face.

16. Loves to climb...I cannot believe the predicaments he gets himself into. Scratch my head all the time, wondering how he did that.

17. Looooves his dad...is in that stage where he is just Thiago's little shadow. The minute he hears our garage door opening, he runs over and is waiting to give his dad a great big hug.

18. Still to this day, can't believe that he is mine. Can't believe the way he has affected my life and most importantly my heart. He is a dream come true for us, and I am completely, totally, head over heals in love with him.

What a cute little guy he is! Isn't it funny how your kids can be so differnt? I can't believe he is already 18 months...

Teri this is freaky how much he looks like Carson at this age in these pictures. Brothers for sure. I loved this post, I feel like with all of these kids we have now it's hard to spend one on one time with each of them. So while I know most of these there was a few that I didn't know about that made me smile. Love you little Lincoln.

I can not believe that he is 18 months already. The time has gone by so fast. He is so stinkin cute. It is amazing how they can be littler terrors but so cute at the same time.
