linkies birthday

last weekend was pretty busy for us. the kids were invited to two easter parties on saturday then we went to the american west heritage center for baby animal days. the next day, easter sunday, was lincoln's birthday then after his birthday/easter dinner we went to my parents house for an easter family home evening with all my siblings. it was a great weekend.

here are pictures from lincoln's birthday:


"happy birthday dear linkies . . ."


his very first taste of cake.


he decided it was good and he just went for it like none of our other kids did.


"yummy tastey. can i have more?"


"wait, i don't have frosting on the top of my head yet."


"that's better."


"i can't believe i survived one year! wahoo!"


we went to my parents house to open gifts. but as you can see lincoln wasn't much interested in gifts. every picture i have of him "opening" gifts is of the back of his head as he is heading elsewhere. maria and hudson opened all of the gifts. he got a couple outfits from grandma and grandpa and two sleepers from us.

we are all so glad to have lincoln in our home. he is such a funny and lovable baby. he does things all the time that make me laugh and he is almost always ready to laugh and wrestle.

happy birthday linkies!

Wow!! The year has passed so quickly. Lincoln is so cute. You would think that they wouldn't like the way it feels, to have cake all over themselves, but it doesn't seem to matter.
