Go Blue!!!

It's that time again!
and for some reason this year my Michigan pride is stronger than ever!
I had to share these cute pictures of my boys! Sloane's Michigan shirt is coming in the mail. She was very sad she didn't have one that fits.

Sloane's Cute Stuff

4/5/11 Right Sloane loves "papunzel" (Tangled). She skips everywhere she goes and today at Target she patted my boob and told me the baby was getting so big!

10/12/10 Sloane calls balloons "bunnyboons". Today she took her diaper off and peed on the floor for the first time. Lincoln NEVER did that. She is spunky, stubborn and definitely a bit moody at times but she is SO much fun. I love 20 months old.

6/25/10 Sloane is talking so much. She says Lincoln almost perfectly, fishy, doggy (and she barks), Sloane (sone), she just discovered herself in the mirror yesterday. She knows when she needs to go poo-poo and tells us, is now running around not just walking, and is saying "nah" for yes and "mo" for no. So funny!

4/19/10 She is saying "baby", Jay (for her little friend CJ), Mommy, Daddy, Ni-night, go, bye-bye, Jesus (and she points to his picture), nummy, and she tries to say almost everything that we say. She is quite the talker!! (but not a walker yet)

1/10/10 Sloane climbed up onto the couch today. She did it so that she could reach her blanket.

1/09/10 She cried most of the way home from the Henry Ford. I knew she was hungry, but didn't have a bottle. She finally started crying "ba-ba". I guess she knows what she wants!

1/08/10 Sloane said "hi" about 25 times to the girl sitting across from her at the restaurant tonight. Then at Target she said it to most of the people that she saw.

Lincoln's Cute Stuff

6/25/10 This boy is a talker! Non-stop chattering going on. He asks some wonderful questions. Yesterday he asked if we could buy a basement because our new house doesn't have one.

3/10/10 He calls Hot Air Balloons "Hair Ah Balloons" and it is his goal to ride in one someday.

1/31/10 Lincoln came home from primary singing "The Rains came down and the flowers came up" over and over again.

11/17/09 Lincoln got his flu shot and H1N1 shot tonight. We saw a little girl in our ward in the waiting room and when she got called back he said "bye Lynea, have good shots"

11/18/09 He said he didn't like getting holes in his knees (his shots).

He says "nudicorn" for unicorn. Funny.

8/24/09 Lincoln's first night without a binky and he did it! I'm so proud of him. He was starting to notice that his "teeth don't touch". We told him they'd touch if he stopped sucking on his b. He totally stopped on his own. Amazing!

8/20/09 Lincoln started potty training today! He did so well...not even one accident! I guess he's ready!

6/11/09 Today we bought big boy underwear. He is so excited. He is taking a nap right now with a diaper and his underwear over the top.

4/13/09 Tonight we talked about the prophet for family night. We told him that Heavenly Father tells our Prophet what we need to know. He started calling him "Heavenly Father Monsen"

3/29/09 We asked Lincoln how nursery was today and he said "I kicked some kids" very matter-of-factly. It was so funny. We tried not to smile as we explained that we don't kick our friends or anyone.

I asked Lincoln what color my eyes were yesterday and he thought about it and said "um...probably pink"

Yesterday we were all in the car and the sun was kind of bright through the windshield. Lincoln said "daddy close the sun" meaning put the visor down.

Lincoln got a new potty today. All day long he has been so excited about "me new potty". He even went pee-pee in it tonight! I don't think he's ready to actually potty train, but we'll get him excited about the idea.

His newest, most frequent words are "awright" and "yep"

We are trying the "no binky unless he's in bed" and it has been tough. I often find him up in his bed sucking on his b at random times in the day.

He has been saying "What was that Mommy?" multiple times a day.

He says "Let's go that way" or "wet's go what way"

He has discovered "Lincoln's shadow" and no matter what shadow it is, he thinks it's his.

He has started calling me "Mommy Whit"....that's the first thing I hear every morning when I wake up!

Lincoln calls his blankets "be-bo's" and his binky his "bee" and he always has to have 2 binkies at a time, one in his mouth and one in his hand.

Lincoln fell down today and scraped one of his knees and he needed a band-aid. His grandma and grandpa Evans happened to send him Elmo 0r "Melmo" as he says, band-aids yesterday. He went over to the box and got out another one after I put one on his hurt knee, and insisted that I put it on his other knee. He wore his matching band-aids proudly all day today, one on each knee.

Today Lincoln wanted to play with our duster. It is about 3 feet long and he carried it around "dusting" for about an hour. When it was time for his nap he absolutely insisted that he sleep with it. When I looked at the video monitor he was sleeping with his arms around the duster. So cute!
