Lincoln Man

On August 6th my little Lincoln man turned two.  We love this little man so much.  He has rocked my world.  He has a tender heart, is sweet, funny and oh so loving.  Lincoln has surprised us in so many ways.  We can't imagine life without him.  What's even more fun is seeing how he and Arabelle interact.  And seeing their differences and similarities.  I don't so much care for the trouble they get into together, but I guess that's part of it.  I can't believe he is two and that he's growing and talking and loving on us as much as we love on him.  I pray daily for him to be a man after God's own heart, I pray for his future family and friends, I pray that he always knows the Lord.  I hope that we are doing a good job of showing Lincoln God and that God uses us to help Lincoln grow. 

We had Lincoln's big circus birthday party last weekend and it was a hit.  Unfortunately after weeks and weeks of barely any rain it would rain on his birthday...trapping us inside.  So much for those games.  I guess it's good we didn't go over the top on the outdoor game thing.  I think we still had a great time though.  Lincoln was totally uninterested in opening presents.  Luckily he has his big sister to open his gifts for him. He didn't care other than for the soccer ball, basketball and form of ball.  For two years now that is all he has wanted.  He was born wanting some sort of ball to throw.  Who knows what that will all develop into.  Enjoy the pictures.

Now I am off to figure out how to get blue nail polish out of our new carpet...yes the trouble they get into.  I am pretty sure this one was instigated by the older one though.  Any suggestions on the clean up???

Have a great weekend!

Birthdays!!

So....I love planning birthday parties.  I find myself going crazy when I look at ideas and wanting to be way over the top.  It's probably good that our budget just won't allow some of the more expensive ideas.  If you ever want me to go over the top for your party I am sure I could manage it!

I am in the midst of planning Lincoln Man's second birthday bash.  We are having a circus theme party. And boy have I found some fun ideas.  I can't wait to have this party and show you the cool stuff I have found.  And I have these awesome cupcake ideas.  I can't show you because it would ruin the surprise.  :-) Hopefully I have a chance to pull it all off.

 

And since we are talking birthdays I never did post Arabelle's birthday pictures from February nor did I post pictures of Lincoln's first birthday.  I guess that's what happens when you are a crazy busy momma.  You don't always have the time to edit and post a bunch of pictures.  Anyways, that's a goal for the next few days.  So hopefully you will get those.  

All right bloggies have a fabulous night!
