Lincoln: "And when you're done sicking in the toilet, then you can get me some milk!" (Said with a big smile.)

I guess I'll try to add a few more notes about Lincoln and the new baby now that I'm logged in.

Lincoln's favorite movies are "Swiss Family Robinson" and "Hook" right now. He loves shooting pirates. We see pirates everywhere we go now and he is very good about protecting me from them. He isn't allowed to shoot mom, just pirates. We talk about the movies quite a bit when we aren't watching them.

Because I've been sick a lot recently (with pregnancy and now the flu), Lincoln is getting really independent. He can get out of his crib very easily, open his bedroom door, get himself yogurt and open it, open the animal cracker tub and fill his bowl with crackers, he puts his shoes away in his shoe bin, and he also does a lot more picking up after himself in general (not by choice usually). The other day he came to me in his pajamas and said "I'm going outside." He then put on his shoes and went to the back door and asked "Is it ok if I go outside?" I said sure and watched as he opened the door and let himself out into the backyard. He has been the best little boy ever. I am looking forward to having more energy soon so I can spend some quality time with him.

The baby is kicking a lot now. I am 26 weeks and my next appt. is on Monday. After Monday I will have appointments every two weeks. I still don't think my belly is that big, but my body is starting to feel sore from the growing baby inside me. We are not ready for her to come so soon!
