nic and linc cute pix of the week

here is nicolas wearing daddy's glasses....he looks like daddy's mini me : ) here is lincoln cheesing in the walker....yeah, yeah, i know they are supposed to be so dangerous and all, but he loves that thing! he cruises all over the place in it : )

lincoln on the go

lincoln has become quite mobile in the past few days....he isn't exactly crawling, more of a scoot or army crawl. it is pretty cute! he is 8 months old today....can't believe it has been 8 months already!

news in sanford land

it has been about 3 weeks since my last post, so i figured i better get some new material on here! the most exciting news is that nic is finally potty trained!!! yay nic! he has been wearing big boy undies for about a week. he has had a couple accidents at the depot, but other than that he has been doing great!

here is a picture of nic with james the red engine...we gave him james when he started going potty like a big boy.

lincoln has started sitting by himself, but he still hasn't quite mastered getting back onto his belly. he usually does a face plant or lands on his head, but he is tough! he is starting to scoot around pretty good to, but hasn't quite figured out how to crawl. wont be long though : )

joe has been working alot upstairs lately, which is nice, i am ready for the upstairs to be done! hopefully within the next couple months it will be! nics b-day is our goal (april 17th). both boys have been sick again, surprise, surprise! nic has a double ear infection, and linc has pink eye and a stomach bug...it has been the winter of never ending sickness! hopefully the spring brings us some more healthy days! well, thats all i have for now.

the 2nd annual super bowl sunday snowman

earlier we went out and made our 2nd annual super bowl sunday snowmen....this is the second year in a row we have had snow on the ground for the super bowl. so we decided we should make it a tradition to build a snowman, unless the colts are playing that is : ) this year we added the red sox snow boy to go along with our colts snow man. we wish the colts were playing today! oh well, maybe next year.

the finished product

nic, joe, and our snowmen

helping daddy shovel the snow

we had our first decent snow of the season this week, and nic and joe were hard at work trying to dig us out...i for one could do without the snow, but it is fun to watch nic have fun in it. we got nic a little snow shovel and he loves it! here are a couple pix of my boys hard at work...

linc's 6 month check up and other stuff

i took lincoln to the doctor yesterday for his 6 month check up. everything is looking good and he is growing like a weed still. he is up to 20lbs 11oz and is 28 1/4 inches long. still a big boy : ) today he had his follow-up appointment with the doctor who did his hernia surgery, and everything went well there too. he is a healthy, happy, baby boy! naked baby boy -- he is rolling all over the place now and starting to scoot a bit too -- probably wont be too much longer and he will be crawling. i'm not sure if i am ready for that yet : )he had his first biter biscuit a couple of days ago, and he was loving it! he made quite a mess, but it was fun.not to be left out, here are some pics of my other lil man. he looks like rambo in this one. his uncle adam would be so proud!

my lil drummer boy. nana and grandpa got him this drum set for x-mas. he loves to make "music" with them!

the latest news in nics world is that we are in full fledged potty training mode, lol. he isn't being very successful with it, but hopefully if we keep on hounding him it will begin to sink in. hopefully. it is too expensive having both boys in diapers at the same time! i am ready to get one of them out of them, but i might have to start on lincoln pretty soon if nic doesn't figure it out : )

well, thats all i have for today. hopefully tomorrow is warmer!

professional pix

I took the boys to get their pictures taken together yesterday, and to get linc's 6 month pix done too. they turned out great of course, and here is the proof : )
