we just

made a purchase.

we are excited to have a place to call our own after such a crazy year. only a couple more weeks and we can move in. for those of you wondering, we are back in oregon now and doing great. we really love this house...mainly because it's ours! it sure is a good time to buy.

mobile

Lincoln has been mobile for a few weeks now. He does this funny little crawl/shuffle/scoot. It's hard to explain....his right leg just kind of scoots underneath him. It's hilarious to watch when he gets some speed. He loves being able to get around and especially loves trying to keep up with Maggie. He is also my little personal vacuum and looks pretty suspicious in that second photo. He's definitely got something in that fist and is just waiting for me to look away so he can stick it in his mouth.
