Falling Behind

Wow has time flown by! I apologize for not blogging earlier. You would think that not working and being a stay at home mom would make me a better blogger, but it doesn't seem to be going that way. Haha However, I am going to try and fix that. :)

Now, to catch you all up on the Bean Family. . . 

Lincoln is already almost 3 months old! I cannot believe how fast my little boy is growing! He rolls over all the time (only from tummy to back), grabs things and holds onto them, follows us around the room with his eyes, recognizes our voices/faces and is constantly smiling and trying to talk. He is such a curious boy and always wants to be held so he can look at everything around him. He fills our lives with so much joy and laughter! We just love our little man!
 

Lincoln LOVES his Johny Jump Up! As many of you saw on Facebook, Jeff decided to put him in this toy at just 2 months of age. Haha Surprisingly enough though, he LOVES it! It did take him a minute to warm up to it, but now he kicks and swings all around. :) We still have to cushion him in real good, but he loves being able to swing around and look in all different directions.
 
  Jeff loves the way Lincoln looks all packed in real good an snug. :)  

 
We go on a lot of walks around Lady Bird Lake. The scenery is beautiful and Linc loves to see all the dogs and people running around.

I am currently a stay at home mom and LOVING it! I love spending all day with my little man! Being a stay at home mom is keeping me busier than I thought it would, and I know it is going to get even more demanding the older Lincoln gets and the more kids that come along, but I don't mind. :) I truly feel that this is my calling in life. To be a mother. I never wanted a big career. Ever since I was a little girl I have wanted to have children of my own. I knew I would love being a mom, but had no idea just how much I truly would enjoy it! I am grateful for a loving and hardworking husband who makes it possible for me to be a stay at home mom! We have truly been blessed with Jeff's education and the help we have received there and I thank Heavenly Father for this everyday!

Jeff is working a lot more with his research and really enjoying it! He loves his lab, his professor and the work they are doing. Jeff has also just started being a kickball ref, as well as a tutor. He finds the kickball kind of boring, but really enjoys being a tutor. He has been a tutor off and on since beginning college, but this is the first time he is being paid to do it, which he really likes. :) Jeff LOVES being a dad! His favorite thing to do is "wrestle" with Lincoln and almost never fails to make Linc smile and giggle.  I love watching these two together!
 
You all knew it was coming! Here are some pictures of Lincoln. I take so many of them it was hard to choose only a few, but here they are! :) 





 
That is it for today's blog! I hope you are all doing well and enjoying some beautiful Spring weather! (Those of you in Utah, well I hope you are enjoying your 2nd winter weather. ;) ) I love you all and promise to be better about blogging again!
