All the funny stuff...

If I had a nickle for every time Lincoln said something that left me completely clueless as to what on Earth he is talking about I'd be rich... real rich! His imagination is spiralling out of control! One minute he is "playing" with "Micah" telling him "No touching my toys Micah" or "Hey, Mikey that's my dump truck" (I assume he says these things because he isn't supposed to act like that when the REAL Micah is around!), the next minute he IS a horse and only speaks in "neighs" and the next minute he's "shootin'" birds out the front window with his arm... er... I mean gun! It's so fun to watch him play. I just sit back and enjoy the show. Every once in a while he'll elicit me to play horsey with him and we'll gallop through the house until I trip or stub my toe and then this old mare has to be shipped off to the glue factory. Mostly he just loves to play on his own! He has a pretend "mouse rat" that he carries in his pocket and periodically feeds during the day, he sleeps with his plastic dinosaurs, and he loves to tip tractors... you know, from the movie Cars? He has seen it only a couple of times and somehow he has the whole thing memorized!

He also says the FUNNIEST things! If he wants something to eat he'll say "How bout a cookie!" in the sweetest way. If he doesn't want to go to bed or nap he'll say "I'll play just a little more" and if both Levi and I are in the room he won't refer to me as momma and Levi as Papa, he'll call both of us Moppa!! SO funny! His new favorite game is to pretend Levi and I are tall trees and his arm is the chain saw and he chops us down... nothing gets him tickled quite like Levi or I falling... not sure why :0) He LOVES pillow fights, wrestling and being dangled upside down (by Levi) for LONG periods of time. He is such a boy! It is also so fun to watch Linc play with Echo. Since we live so far out of town and away from busy streets Lincoln can go out into the front yard while I stay in with Bear and keep an eye on him from the front door. He leads echo all over the place. He tosses sticks for her, he pokes at her, he talks to her. She loves it too! He's also really into asking what different things say. I hear "what's____ say" about a million times a day! I think it's because he loves the Planet Earth movies, which he also requests a million times per day. It was so funny, at Levi's families Christmas day get together we were playing a children's camping game and Linc's question was "which is smallest; Earth, the sun or the moon" Linc so energetically shouted "PLANET EARTH!", it just seemed so odd coming from a two year old! Granted he was wrong but it was so cute!

He is a smart little critter, talking in full sentences and soaking in every little thing that happens around him. I love him dearly!
