Happy 1 Month

Wow - ONE whole month has already passed by since Lincoln was born!! Days fly by in the Edwards household, we both often say "I can't believe it's already 3:00 pm!" Life has changed in all ways for us... and all for the better!!! Sasha is the best big sister, only barks at the visitors. She adjusted to the new sounds and seems to really love her new little brother -whew! Here's a photo recap of what Lincoln has done in his first month:
  • Met MANY (but not all) of his extended family:
    Grandma
    Gran
    Grandpa

    BoBo
    Uncle Derrick
    Aunt Amanda
    Aunt Brandy
    Great Aunt Kirbi
Great PaPa
Great Granny
Cousin Ethan (2 mth + 2 days older)
  • Been held by lots of mommy and daddy's friends (we forgot to capture everyone):
Katie + Emma
The Gambills
The Walkers
Adam, Ansley + Blake (2 mths + 5 days older)
Kara + Heather (he'll meet Colin soon!)
Susan
Rachel (we can't wait to meet Easton!!)
  • Attended his first wedding (congrats Ashley & John!!)
    sporting his onesie with a tie ;)
  • Slept through a get together watching a football game with friends
  • Accompanied mommy and daddy on a "date night" out (we felt adventurous making it to Cracker Barrel for dinner this past weekend)
  • Had his first photo shoot
    sneak peek, more coming soon
  • Started practicing how to use a bottle for when mommy has to be away (we think he's a champ, the occasional bottle doesn't seem to interfere with his eating skills)
  • Loves bath time and his swing
  • Spent countless hours being snuggled by either mommy or daddy (Sasha is always nearby ready to snag cuddle time)

We're starting to get the hang of things. It's amazing how fast you get used to sleeping in 2 hour increments and still seem to function. Each day gets easier and we get more comfortable. We've had LOADS of support along the way. A BIG thank you to everyone who has come by for a visit, brought us a yummy meal, sent a thoughtful gift, written us words of encouragement and just been there for us during our new found role as parents.
Happy 1 month to our sweet baby boy!
Have a great week :)
