Lincoln is two months old now. What a joy he is! His two month check up is on Wednesday so I will post his stats next week. All I know is he is growing like crazy!

His favorite thing to do is take a bath! He loves to be undressed and especially loves to be in the water. Maybe he’ll be a good swimmer someday.

He’s not sleeping through the night yet. He typically does 4 or 5 hour stretches during the night. I consider those good nights. Sometimes he’s up more often. He is easy to get back to sleep so I am not awake for too long when he wakes up.  I look forward to him sleeping all night!

Lincoln loves his swing, enjoys laying on the floor, and isn’t crazy about his bouncer.

He loves to watch his big brothers and watch the mobile on his crib.

His face is changing more and more and he seems to be getting his own look. Although, There is still a very strong resemblance to his daddy and brother, Ethan. I didn’t think it was possible, but he gets cuter and cuter with each day! :)

He has started to coo at us and smiles when we entertain him with goofy faces and noises.

I know how fast babies grow so I am really trying to soak everything in. I just wish he could stay little longer!

Lincoln love to put all his weight on his feet and stand. He may follow in his brothers footsteps and be an early walker.

Lincoln and Josie decided to have a pity party together. Aren’t they cute?

Well, Isaac got his first little shiner. Luckily, it’s not nearly as bad as the one Ethan had! This was caused by the boys playing like, well, boys! They were having a pillow fight and Isaac was sitting next to a chair when he was hit with a flying pillow. It made his face hit the chair. He didn’t cry very hard. I iced it right away, but I knew it would leave a little bruise.

I put Lincoln on Ethan’s bed while I was making Isaac’s bed. Next thing I knew Isaac was in there snuggled up to Lincoln. I had to get the camera, they were so cute!

Yep, Lincoln’s shirt is true! I am so in love with this little guy!

We got the boys a watch for Valentine’s Day. They had been wanting one for quite a while and I found these at Wal*Mart for $3.00. They love them!

Ethan’s class had a teddy bear tea party today. The kids got to bring their favorite bear to school. I stuck around until all the kids were there so I could get this picture. Ethan had so much fun!

Ethan has had this bear since we got his big boy bed. He sleeps with it every night. When he was two he named him, “Bear.”

We went over to Rachel’s house for a Valentine’s Day party. Her little girl, Josie, and her niece, Layla, are on each side of Lincoln.

I love Lincoln’s cheeks, they are very irresistible!

I decided to give Lincoln his bath with Ethan and Isaac. It was easier to let Ethan hold Lincoln while I washed him instead of getting Lincoln’s little tub out and giving him a separate bath. It worked out really well and Lincoln LOVED it! He was smiling and and smiling. I should have had Warren get the camera sooner. Lincoln really loves the water! He also loves to be undressed. When he’s fussy we just strip him down and he stops crying and seems so relaxed and happy!

This is the only decent picture I could get. It’s not what I had in mind, but it will do for now. Maybe tomorrow I can try again.

It was almost impossible to get a picture of the three boys looking at the camera at the same time. Lincoln was very fussy the whole time and only stopped crying here and there, so I had to be ready. Most of the pictures were deleted!

Ethan and Isaac were told to clean their play room today. They seemed very overwhelmed by the task. It turns out they just needed a little motivation. Once they found out that Daddy was going to have a pillow fight with them after they cleaned, they sure got busy. The boys were very proud of their work and couldn’t wait for us to come down and see the finished job. They did do a good job and deserved a pillow fight. I could hear the laughter from two stories above them. The pictures show just how much fun they had!
