A Day in the Life...

Lincoln and I spent some time together this weekend as Scott painted Lincoln's bedroom all by himself (he painted the walls and the trim!).  I decided to chronicle Lincoln's activities so that all of our readers could experience "a day in the life"...

We begin with a healthy breakfast of cereal and/or pancakes.
After breakfast, Lincoln likes to do some "light" reading.  As you can see from the "reject" pile on the floor, he has very high standards for his books.
After reading some of my Econ books, we head to the Kitchen where Lincoln helps me make lunch.
Finally, after all of that hard work Lincoln likes to settle down for a nice nap (Mommy and Daddy may take a short nap, too)!!

Just me and the TV

So tonight, it's just me and the TV.  Linda and Lincoln are both in bed, and I'm going to watch an old classic - True Romance.

It's Lincoln's normal bedtime, but Linda is not feeling well.  We've been passing colds (and now something resembling the flu) between us for weeks.  The typical progression is Lincoln gets sick, then Linda, then me.  We're  hoping our immune systems catch up with the bugs soon.

I couldn't have a post without a picture, so here's one from a few weeks ago when Everett stayed with us.  As you can see, the two boy's bath times overlapped by a few minutes.  

This is the censored version of the picture because the uncensored version isn't appropriate for young eyes.  We will, however, be keeping the uncensored picture to torture Everett with at his high school graduation (I doubt that Lincoln will be too thrilled this picture exists in 20 years either).

Good things...

They say good things come in small packages, but what do you think comes in a super-jumbo pack of diapers?  Three guesses...
It's Lincoln!  He's showing a smiling face after a tough week.  Lincoln, Scott, and I were all sick last week so we were a pretty sad household.  Scott and I took turns taking off work to watch Lincoln, and we all became *well* acquainted with the shows on the Noggin channel ("It's like preschool on TV!"). My favorite is "Lazytown", while Scott prefers "Little Bill".  Lincoln had a fever for most of the week and was pretty tired, but on Friday he recovered and we had a wonderful weekend.
