New Pics of the Kids...Guess Who's Two

Linc turned two this month so I decided this would be a good month to have my friend Chelsea take the kids pictures. Our last pics were taken just before Daddy left for Afghanastan for 8 months. Chloe now has all new teeth. Lincoln almost has a full set. And the girls now have short hair with bangs! Chelsea does such a nice job! If you want to see more of her work go to http://hazleburyphotography.blogspot.com. Thanks Chelsea!

Logandale Reservoir, An Honorable Day, Some Random Days at Home, and Mommy's Belly Bump

We were supposed to go boating on Lake Mead....but due to the super windy conditions we ended up having Daddy's work party at the Reservoir in Logandale. We all ended up with sunburn by the end of the day......but had a lot of fun!

This is Lily swimming into "the deep".

Chloe collecting her prized seaweed.

There are pretty places in Nevada! You just have to know where to go!

What you can't see in this picture is Jet swimming after her. He spent more time swimming than anyone else. If the kids went out too far he would go after them and "herd" them to come back in. He slept so well in the car on the way home!
One tired puppy. Yes....he's only 5 months old. It's hard to believe that you can have a 60lb puppy.

This is Chloe's first grade award ceremony. She won an award for language arts, science, and a completion of first grade.

Culture shock of Vegas....Chloe was one of two white kids in her class.

One of our new favorite x-box games.

20 weeks

Linc has a new hobby. His favorite things are airplanes, playing Hyper Jump, and painting. Some other favorite pastimes are putting on everyone else's shoes, jumping on the trampoline, playing in the fireplace, using everyone else's tooth brush, pulling out all of our games at the same time, guessing letters and numbers. He knows the entire alphabet and many sight words like bubble, baby, Taco Bell, and McDonald's. His favorite phrases are, "I don know, How you doin?, See ya soon, I cold, Pee in potty!, Go play!, Chowee, Illy, Inkin,. He loves to do things to make you laugh. He loves to make funny faces and make funny noises at the dinner table. He's such a fun little boy. I can't believe he will be 2 years old this week.

It's a........

Boy!!!!

Phew! Now Lincoln will have a playmate! I'm really relieved because I don't think my knee would put up with my body being pregnant again. We are so happy!
