Two Little Boys

 Life was so crazy with two boys under 2!  It was awesome too.

Trying on Daddy's shoes.

 Playing toys in the new basement dad finished.  It was so fun to have a toy room!

 Making messes together...

Aggie fan already.

 Palmer was fascinated with Lincoln's basinet.  I would put it on the ground for him to play in.

 Always on my phone.

 I was a little obsessed with shopping for these two.

Chadra left her hat at our house one day and Palmer thought it was great!

Daddy's hat.

 Not sure what he thinks of the vacuum hose.

 Entertaining Lincoln as usual.

 Hello?

 Palmer has always loved to read from the time he was little.

We bought this cute little train station for the boys from Pottery Barn Kids.  They loved to play in it.

 Whose that guy?

 Hanging out with Dad in his office.

 Cool Dude.

Lincoln didn't like rice cereal too much, so Palmer was always happy to finish it off.

 Always using everything as a phone.

 Pulling everything out of the diaper bag.

 Little mess maker.

 Good thing he is cute!

Loving Dad's ties!

 What a good sharer.

 Loving playing in this little swimming pool.

Don't mind the grass, that dog there ate the sprinkling system!

 Nothing like a lot of frosting!

 All snuggled up together.

First Haircuts

 Palmer and Lincoln both had their first "real" haircuts at the same time.  My friend did them and she was so good.  Up to that point, I had always cut their hair myself, but they were so squirmy and hated it so much, I figured it was time for some help.

 Palmer did a great job.  I think it was the novelty of the whole thing.

 Lincoln wasn't sure what he thought...

 We used a water gun to keep him occupied because he wasn't a huge fan of the whole thing.

 Not pleased at all...

 Help!

Look at that handsome.

Palmer Turns 2

 Palmer woke up on his birthday to a huge Nemo in his crib!  What a fun surprise!

 He loved that Nemo

 And dragged him around with him by his little fin.

 Presents!  He doesn't look to please with it...

That night we went to Chuck E Cheeses for pizza, cake and games.   Palmer liked the cake, Lincoln liked the toy on the cake.

 Palmer was trying to do everything!  This kid has never thought of himself as little.  I am positive he would like at the big kids and think they were the same age.

 I'm always a sucker for skee ball.

 That smile always melts my heart.

Cutest little birthday boy!

Palmer Family Reunion

 Palmer family reunions are always a good time.  This year we had the reunion at Payson Lakes, which we all love. 

 We got there the day before Palmer's 2nd birthday, so we got to spend his birthday with the family. Everyone was so thoughtful and brought him presents.

 He especially loved this glow bracelet, which he kept putting in his mouth.

 He was super into Finding Nemo, so this cake was only appropriate.  

Cute David showing him the present he gave him.

 It was a little hard on Lincoln because he wasn't walking yet.  I had to carry him everywhere or he was crawling in the dirt.  I think his favorite time was when we would put the seats down in the van and let them play.

 These kids had the time of their lives and got SUPER dirty.

 This raft was one of the favorite "toys" for the grandkids.  

 Palmer played with the oars on the boat for what seemed like hours.

 We love spending time with our family so much!
