Random

Lincoln loves watching The Piano Guys perform their songs (via YouTube). He also is not liking to lay down for nap time recently. So sometimes we compromise (if you can even call it that..) and he gets to watch a few songs until he gets sleepy/falls asleep.

Okay... so I'm pretending in this picture, 
but had I not been holding my laptop I totally would have fallen asleep.

Lately Parker has really enjoyed his rocking horse elephant. 
He goes crazy until he gets hurt. Of course, right?

"The car's hungry!"

That's what Lincoln thinks about putting gas in a car. He also LOVES to "help".
 
This face of his reminds me of my brother, Jeff.

Swimming & Splash Pad

Summer is officially here! Well, for those of us who live a little further south, anyway. Here are more pictures of swimming at Mimi's house, plus our first visit of the year to the splash pad downtown.

 Parker LOVES water. If you turn on a faucet anywhere in the house, he thinks it's time for a bath/to go swimming/to play and splash. Lincoln was so much more hesitant going into the water that this love of Parker's has taken me by surprise!

Parker winding up for a "hop"

Hop!
(more like bending and straightening his knees)

This has been Lincoln's BRAVEST time in the water. I told him I'd fetch his cars at the bottom of the pool if he put the floaties on. I gently pushed him into the deep end and NO freak out! In fact, Lincoln went back and forth between the sides of the pool and the middle.

Here's his super proud smile.  :)


(April 20th) Play group at the splash pad! I think we went a little too early because it wasn't long before Parker started shivering and even Lincoln wanted his towel!

 Parker loves to watch (& mimic!) Lincoln

Having a great time just sitting there splashing.

After drying off, getting dressed, and Parker sitting in the stroller, Lincoln always insists on pushing him around. 

"Car is back here, Lincoln!"

And we're having...

2 more boys! (Jesse has been right every single time...)

I am getting so outnumbered here. 5 boys and 1 girl. I guess we have ourselves a basketball team, right? I'll be the coach cheerleader.


Some of you are wondering... did I cry? Nope. I would have been shocked if we were having a girl. Even though I guessed one of each... I expected 2 boys.

Things to expect/look forward to:
  • dents in the walls
  • lots of punching
  • lots of future missionaries
  • extra help with yard work
  • purchasing an extra fridge/freezer (boys eat a lot, right?)
  • messes
  • little boy hugs & kisses... lots of them!  :)

I'm pretty happy. I love my boys! They are so cute and I can't wait (actually... I can! No need to rush them here!) to enjoy me some more!
