Welcome Family and Friends!!!

Welcome to the Chapman Family Blog!! I discovered that I am much more efficient at keeping the family photos up to date online than I am actually scrapbooking. It's nothing fancy, just a slice of life from the Chapman's in Arizona. Enjoy!

Nana comes to town!!!

Earlier this month, Lincoln's Nana - my mom - came to
town to visit for the week. We had lots of fun, and the
week was over before we knew it! Thank you Nana for
all of Lincoln's new gifts, and for spending the week with
us. We can't wait to see you again (hopefully sooner than
later!!) We love you and miss you every day!

Below is a picture of Lincoln opening "It's the Great Pumpkin
Charlie Brown" movie from Nana.


Nana also brought Lincoln his very first set of toddler markers.
He had so much fun drawing on everything. Including himself.
Well, his Daddy didn't help matters any as he felt free
to draw the Nebraska "N" on Lincoln's chest, and starting
it all!





Hmmm.. I don't think that I have enough yellow on me yet.




Now, time for Mommy and Nana to clean me up!


We also spent the day at the zoo with Nana. The weather
was beautiful, and Lincoln had fun looking at all of the
animals and imitating their sounds!



On the Safari Train ride around the zoo.



Pretty view from the entryway bridge.


Watching the giraffes eat their lunch!


Taking a ride on the carasol. Lincoln was very proud that
he got to ride on the shark. He talked about the shark all
the way to the car!


Nana reading a book to Lincoln and his cousin Reese.

Thanks again Nana for spending the week with us.
We love you!

Papa & Grandma Chapman

Well, I haven't updated the blog in a long time.
Things have been busy, but life has been good.

As seen in my last post, Linc's 2nd birthday,
Papa and Grandma Chapman came to town.
The visit was too short, but very sweet. It
meant a lot to us that they were able to make
it here to help Lincoln celebrate his birthday.
I wanted to post a few more non-birthday party pics
from their visit. We all had a blast.
Thank you Grandma & Papa for coming!
We love you and miss you always!
