We love you Daddy! Hope you come home safely. Family Smooch!!!

I finally found the camera

As usual back to busy crazy life. Mike is in Cheyenne on a job now, but he has been home so much lately that I can't complain at all. I love it! We have just been so busy lately I never take the time to write it down. I've been working a bit extra and I'm exhausted, but still can't complain because its not full-time by any means. I love my job and the kids love their babysitter so its ok:)

Mike went out of town one other day this month (I think) so me and the kids took a quick trip to hang out with my family. It was fun to play a bit. Lincoln is getting so much better at being more social, yeah!

So I am so stinkin tired I can't think of much thats been going on. Me and the kids just got back from meeting my parents in Evanston for dinner and dropping off some things and we got home a bit late. Between soccer, gym, work and always being on the phone, Mike is busy. I've been playing with babies, working, baby showers, and "spring cleaning" its busy. But Mikey and I just started watching a new series (old but new to us) together so its been fun to cuddle and spend some time together almost every night. I love it! Oh and the series is Friday Night Lights and I'm loving that too!

So the kids... Sequoia is getting up to a sitting position very well. That girl is crazy and doesn't hold still for even a couple seconds; always on the move and super fast. That girl is so funny. Her personality is up and down daily. She is so super happy one day, the next, just the opposite. I commented to Mike one day and he said, "Uh, I wonder where she gets it from??" :) Her two front teeth are almost out so she has a good excuse.

Lincoln finally said, "Please!" instead of his normal "Bah." Yeah! He is slowly but surely making progress. I took him to the CDC for a screening. He passed all except Speech, which we expected. A speech therapist is going to come to the house and do some more tests. I'd rather start now than later. Its so fun to hear new words come out of his mouth. Its not very often, which makes it even funner! He's an awesome kid, he doesn't sit still either, but we sure love him:)

I couldn't find my camera for a while so there are only a few pics, oh well.

I finally finished my wall in the play room! This is the whole wall. It took a while but I finally got everything painted. I love it! And Linc is so good trying to saying his numbers and alphabet with it. Its been fun doing this project. I still need to take pics of the rest of the room.

Linc just being a nerd

Lincoln is such a big helper! He sure loves his baby sister:)

Grandma P. feeding Quoi

She just happened to match her blankie and everything and we just couldn't pass up some pictures!

Pretty little poser

I love these fat little smiles!

He is starting to get picky about which binky he wants (he has about 6 different ones). So maybe soon he'll be ok without one at all. I'm not in a hurry, but one day. There are more important things in life than stealing a child's precious thing...

Silly kid

So just a few silly stories...

Last night after we finished eating I left the room to start the bath and Mike was on the couch and the kids were still in their highchairs. Mike told me to come over and we saw Lincoln playing peek-a-boo with Sequoia! It was the cutest thing ever; I have never heard her laugh so hard. He would look away for a while then hurry and look at her and she would just bust. Love these kids! I couldn't get a video, the camera was behind them and I didn't want to ruin the moment.

Tonight Mike was going crazy looking for his phone that was on vibrate. He swore he set it on the counter but it was nowhere to be found. We'd looking for about 15 min and no luck. Lincoln wanted a drink of my milk so I put him on my lap and let him have a drink. All the sudden he started vibrating!! He had taken Mikey's phone and put it down his footy zip up pjs and had been walking around with it all over. What a nut face!!

I was at Shilayna's when her in-laws showed up. Her father-in-law was kind of playing with Linc and talking to him. After a couple minutes he looked at Shilayna and kind of whispered, "Now, is this a boy or a girl?" Haha! I could have died laughing! I'm not sure I was supposed to hear, but I did and I loved it! I love Lincoln's hair, it's getting so long. At least he's a boy and people assume he's a girl; girls are pretty:)
