Family Collage

Here is a little collage of our recent family photos!

Every night while I am making dinner Lincoln crawls into the kitchen opens "his" cupboards, pulls out every pan and bangs them until I am done. He is looking for members to be in his kitchen band. Preferrably babies who play the forks, cutting boards, and George Foreman. Any takers?








WILD THANG! Here is Lincoln sporting his farmers tan! I bet you think he gets his way with those big brown eyes...he does!

Tiger woods started out pretty young playing golf and has done pretty well for himself. Must mean Lincoln is on his way to becoming a piano prodigy. Every morning we listen our favorite Ipod playlist while we dance around and then it is straight to work practicing Beethovens 5th. ; )Lincoln seems to be getting the hang of it, he always gets at least one note right. He could spend hours at the piano. It must be due to all the music he listened to while he was in my tummy!



This is Lincoln's adopted big brother Easton. This past weekend we babysat Easton and he and Lincoln had a great time, homemade pizza, goldfish, a few games of old maid and watching Mulan. It doesn't get any better than that.









When Lincoln is interested in something you can always tell. He will cross his ankles and hold his hands. Those are sure signs he is hooked!

Splish Splash I was takin' a bath...Lincoln really loves his bath time. When bath time is over Lincoln pulls the drain out and watches with a very confused face as the water empties. He tries so hard to scoop the water out of the drain...but to no avail it empties just the same. Keep trying buddy!

Now that I am learning so much about vision, this moment cracked me up. I remember my mom often saying "Don't stand so close to the TV...its not good for your eyes." At the time I didn't believe her. Now my eyes are borderline blind without glasses. Yes, it is true...the closer you are to the TV...the greater your chance of worsening your distance vision. : ) Mom's always know what is right. This is also just another funny shot of his Halloween costume. You can see his mini sword just behind him.

Here was our attempt at getting a family photo with Lincoln in his Halloween costume. If you can't tell...he is supposed to be a pirate. We also came up with Nephite and little lost boy so whatever you think he looks the most like...you can call it that! We had fun dressing him up and taking him to the ward "trunk or treat."

Well....the rain is finally here! We were beginning to think that all of these people were making up stories about how wet it gets during Oregon winter. We have had rain the past four days. With that comes some fun times with Lincoln. I went to pick him up the other day and found my shirt and shirt sleeve soaked! I looked at him and he looked at me with a big smile.

Welcome to Oregon winter!

Lincoln Updates

We thought this was so funny! He will sit an look at this photo album of the family and just smile and laugh. We think he really liked the family reunion this year!

Lets hear it for Mt. Carmel!

Here is Lincoln enjoying his bathtime!

We quickly learned how much
Lincoln likes sand!
Thank goodness we now live
closer to the beach!

Here is our little guy sporting some nice shades! These didn't stay on for long but long enough to get this awesome pic!
These pics were from the Sand Dunes at Mt. Carmel Junction. Next time we go here we will make sure we go to the dunes. Lincoln loved them.
This one was taken on Lincoln's first birthday!

We had such a fun time! He is growing up so fast!

Kickin' Back

We love this picture!

This one is a few months old but gives a good look at our little man and his cute poses!

He is now 22 lbs (95 percentile) and 28 and 3/4 inches tall (105 percentile...if there is such a thing).

He just got his first two teeth and is making his first attempts to crawl! What a guy...

Family Photo Shoot

OK...So it has been months since we last posted. I am sure that all of our friends that check this have stopped checking it because we never update it!

Anyway, we'll will try to do better!

Here is one of our family pictures that we had done around Christmas time!

Look closely at Lincoln's thumb on his right hand. It almost looks like he is about to give the thumbs up!
