Go See

Lincoln has an open casting call audition this morning in Plano for The Picture People's ad campaign. We haven't done anything since October when he did his JC Penney photo shoot. I was told they use 9mo babies to model for 0-24 month sizes since they can't crawl and 3 year olds for 2T-5T, since 2 year olds tend to be less cooperative. Now that Lincoln is a 3T, we might get a few more opportunities. Since this one is in Plano, we decided to try it out. Cross your fingers for him today!

Hopefully they don't ask us if we like The Picture People...we are not fans, but some free pictures might be just the thing to change our minds.

May 3rd Flashback---20 1/2 weeks

Since Lincoln's due date was September 18th, and this baby's due date is September 18th, the date to date comparisons are exact! Here I am on May 3rd in 2007 and May 3rd this year. I'm was 20 1/2 weeks when these photos were taken.

This One is for you Tinkerbell!

Here are a few random pictures of Lincoln since the last post...

We were finally able to keep Lincoln in his new room long enough to actually get his beauty sleep. However, some nights and naps, he finds himself asleep right by the door. This is a picture of his head. Ryan tried to open the door, but it would only open a few inches because of this 37lb sandbag.
Spending the night with Gigi and Memer while Ryan and I celebrated our 6th anniversary. This was his first sleepover since he's been out of his crib. He fell asleep sometime around 10pm and woke up at 11pm and 1am. Both times, my Mom found him in the kitchen with a spoon and some Bluebell ice cream. I guess he was hungry:)

18 weeks

16 weeks with Lincoln


18 weeks with Baby Blake
Even though these babies share the same due date, I took a pic every four weeks with Lincoln, 8, 12, 16 weeks, etc. This time, I went to the dr for the first time at 10 weeks, so I'm a little off. For next month, I will get in sync with the first pregnancy. Not much has changed, although the jeans I'm wearing in the top picture are not maternity, and when I tried them on last week, I couldn't button them, so I guess my hips are a little wider this go around!

Now This Will Be Embarrassing

It's Easter!

Easter was eventful and busy this year. Here are a few pictures.

Opening his Easter basket
(Yes, Lincoln is wearing cartoon pj's. The only time you get to see him in screen tees/cartoons is when he is sleeping and tee teeing. He gets to pick his pj's and underwear).


Putting a flower on the cross at church.
After church, we headed over to my parents house for lunch and an egg hunt. Uncle John and Cason came and so did our favorite friends, the Wedemeyers. Since my Dad was a music minister when I was growing up, we never traveled over Easter weekend, so we usually celebrated Easter with friends. It was fun to continue that tradition with Lincoln and his friends Ella and Audrey.
Ready for the egg hunt!
These confetti eggs were a huge hit. Cracking one on Cason's head!
The girls


The boys
I couldn't get one good picture of all of them, so I cropped it!

After we got home and after nap, we took some more pictures of our boy in front of our house.
Happy Easter 2010

SS Egg Hunt

We enjoyed an Easter egg hunt and brunch at a local park with our SS class the Saturday before Easter. Lincoln scored some loot and practice before the hunt the next day.

It's beginning to look a lot like...

PREGNANCY! We took this yesterday afternoon, I'm 16 1/2 weeks. We have a sonogram scheduled for 4/26, three weeks from today.

Not wearing maternity clothes quite yet, but boy, it won't be long!!

More Snow

A new shot of us in our most recent snow. I'm ready for Spring and by the look on Lincoln's face, he is too!

Lincoln is Funny

A few new pictures of my Lucky Little Leprechaun!



I keep a daily journal of all the new and or funny things Lincoln says and does, but here are some real doozies from the last week!

My phone rang and Lincoln said "Mom, it's your husband".

We pulled up to Chick Fil A and Lincoln said "Chick fil A, it's my lucky day".

After checking out his deposit in the potty he said "Oh wow Mom, a big huge brown whale".

After telling me thank you for his milk, he said "Now Mom, you say your welcome".

He told Julie the other day that Chick Fil A was a healthier choice than McDonalds.

He gets cuter and funnier and smarter everyday. He says please and thank you, sometimes too much. We have not hit the terrible twos yet and we are half way through. Timeout continues to be a rarity around our house. I'm waiting for the tides to turn, but enjoying every minute of his sweet, sweet nature!
