Lincoln is turning into such a kid! The last few times I've come in to get him from his snooze, I've found that he's turned his white noise machine off and he's jumping on his bed, happy as can be! When we went to the pool yesterday he closely observed how I blew bubbles and worked on doing the same! It's amazing to see his little mind working and discovering. 

When I put Link down to bed I always sing to him "I am a Child of God", A Child's Prayer, and Families can be Together Forever. Sometimes he puts up a big fight when I first start singing because he know that it means it's time for bed. Recently though, when he puts up a fight I just sit him up on my chest and rock him in my chair. While I'm rocking and singing, Link sings along!! Not the actual words, or even the right tune, but I am certain that he's trying to sing along. What a sweet boy! 

Link's major frustration in life is trying to get me to understand what he wants. He just starts screaming and pointing when we wants something and I have to do my best to try and figure out what that is. I think he'll be a lot happier when he can talk! He's get closer. I'm pretty sure he was saying a few of the words in I Am a Child of God. 

Lisey had preschool in the morning today. They had a field trip to the dentist's office. I asked Lisey if she wanted me to come and she said sure but then she wanted to ride in her friends car so I decided to go to Costco with link. At first I thought it was a terrible idea. Link didn't want to sit in the cart and he wanted to run free. But then I strapped him in and got an ice cream and we had smooth sailing from there. Until he spilled ice cream everywhere. But it's fine. At least I got the unpleasant job of shopping out if the way.
