Cannonball!!!

Linc likes the swimming pool. He likes jumping into it even more. Each time we go swimming a good 30 minutes of that time is now dedicated to doing cannonballs into the pool. Linc climbs out, steps to the edge and yells out "CANNONBALL!" except you only really hear "CANNONB. gurgle, gurgle, blub, blub" as he goes into the water. It's pretty hilarious.

Let's go to the movies!

This past Saturday the 12th we took Lincoln to his first movie ever! We saw "Up". And yes, we saw the whole thing. Linc sat and enjoyed pretty much the entire flic other than when he got stuck in his chair. He said "Mommy, I stuck! Help me!" You know how those dollar movie theatre chairs are like: virtual bear traps! But we survived with all our limbs and thoroughly enjoyed Up. Today, I took Linc for a walk and he suddenly started saying "movie, guy with balloons, dog, bird, that was funny!" See Up and you'll know what Linc was talking about there.

Our little boy likes movies. Like father like son!

It's Not About The Bike

Look at that concentration.

Success!

What giraffes sound like

This morning I was showing Lincoln a card that had pictures of a lion, a monkey, and a giraffe. I asked him one by one what each one says. This is the conversation:

Me: Lincoln, what does a lion say?
Lincoln: Rowrrr!
Me: What does a monkey say?
Lincoln: Oo ee aa oo!
Me: And what does a giraffe say?
Lincoln: (After looking at the giraffe for a few seconds) Giraaaaaaffffe! (in a high pitched voice)

We died laughing!

Bullen Hair

"Bullen" hair (noun) : the completely uncontrollable protruding coating of hairs on a Bullen boy's human head. Also seems to be a dominant gene trait when cross-bred with Jensen hair.


In other news:
Lincoln loves to help with the laundry. He is known as the "best-button-presser" in our house. He loves to start the washer and dryer and believe it or not he loves to clean the lint out of the dryer; he does a pretty good job too! And he does it without me even asking...someday his future wife will thank me =) Just a couple of pictures of Lincoln being cute.

"Hiding" - I am surprised that he could fit under there like that.

Lincoln wanted to sleep in the laundry basket earlier this week. He got his pillow and blanket and tried to get in, but he couldn't get comfortable.

Plastic Carnage

We regret to report that Air Jensen flight 623 has crashed near the front door. It appears the Lego Jumbo Jet suffered major turbulence due to a 2 year old named Lincoln ripping the wings off the fuselage mid-flight, sending the remains of the plane into a nosedive directly into hard tile. We are told there were no survivors.

We warn you that these pictures are extremely graphic and should not be viewed by any Lego men!!!

Going out for a walk

This morning we were playing in the living room when we noticed an earwig crawling across our tile floor toward the front door. I asked Linc where the bug was going and he said "on a walk!" after which Lincoln opened the front door to let the earwig go on his "walk."

On another note, earwigs don't crawl in your ears while you're asleep and lay eggs so their babies can eat your brain.
