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!

Palmer's First Time to Lagoon

 Some of our friends invited us to go to Lagoon one night and we were pretty excited, since Palmer hadn't been there yet.  

 I was a little worried he wouldn't like the rides since he had never been on one before.

 His face through most of this one wasn't sure what it thought.

When the ride was all over Josh went and got Palmer off of it and he didn't want to get off.  He cried all of the way out the exit.

After that he was up for every ride we took him on.

 He loved driving his own car.

 He looked so tiny in that big ole car!

Train ride

He was exhausted after all that fun!
