Emmett

What cute boys! We sure love them both. Lincoln
sure loves Emmett. He is always excited to
see him when he wakes up and wants to give
him hugs and kisses all the time.

Our Emmett is Six months old now. I can't
believe how fast he is growing up. He is such a
good baby. He always has a smile on his face, and
he has such a great smile! He is so patient with
all of us and loves to be held and talked to. He is
also really good at growling at us. He is a very
ticklish little boy and laughs and laughs when
he is tickled.

He is 16 1/2 pounds (33%) and 27 inches long (75%).
He is a great eater, you can tell by those chubby
cheeks that we all love to kiss.

He has discovered that he has feet and toes
on the end of those chubby legs and he loves
to play with them and eat them.

Getting the whole foot in there :) .

We have also started baby food and Emmett
LOVES all of it. The only thing he hasn't liked so far
is Peaches, but other than that he eats everything.

Emmett is so happy to be eating food. He
also really likes to grab at our plates, I think
if we would let him he would try everything
we eat.

We call these his skinny PJ's. I think he looks so
cute in them.

We got to visit with Grandma Ward when she
was here this last week. She is Emmett's
Great Grandma.

Emmett loves this little chair. He just
sits in it and watches us play or plays with toys.
He is now also rolling a lot. It has begun, he is a mover
and there is no going back. We are so glad he is in
our family, we love you Emmett.

Lincoln

Our Lincoln seems to be getting so old. He is
so much fun and has such a fun personality.
He is usually making us laugh by all the funny
things he says. His vocabulary has grown so much
in the last month. He talks all the time now and
has so much to say. However his favorite thing to
says right now is "Why"!

One huge thing that has been happening at our
house lately is potty training. Lincoln is doing
great. He has done so much better than I thought
he would at his age. We have had our fair share
of accidents but overall it is going great. We have
been at it for almost a month. Good Job
Link. We are so proud of you. Link with
his treat he got for going potty. He was so
excited.

We took Lincoln to Chuck E. Cheese this past
weekend and he LOVED it. He was so excited
to be there. He thought it was great that he
got little pieces of money that he got to use
to play games and go on rides.

We had a lot of fun there.

We sure love our Lincoln.

December

Sorry the first pictures ended up out
of order. We had a busy month of December
as I am sure everyone did so I am just
now posting about the fun things we did.
Here is Lincoln being silly with some cups.

Of course he had to let Emmett in on
all the fun. What a good sport. Emmett
really loves Lincoln. Whenever Lincoln
talks to Emmett or Emmett sees him he gets the
biggest smile.

Our First super exciting thing of the month
was that my sister Kelsey came home from
her mission in California. We sure missed her.
She did a great job and the people there loved her.

However, we are sure glad she is home with us.
At the airport.

Even though we told Lincoln about Kelsey the
whole time she was gone it still took a while for
him to warm up to her. We did finally get him to
give her a hug.

We were able to go to the Polar Express in Lindon
this year. We had a great time.

Lincoln loved being able to ride on a real
Train.

We even got to see Santa Clause. Lincoln
sat on his lap but wouldn't look at him. He did
whisper what he wanted for Christmas which was
just Presents and New Toys.

My two cute boys in their matching
PJ's by our Tree.

We had two Christmas's this year. We celebrated a
mock Christmas with my Family before we left
for Oregon and opened the majority of our
presents here. Lincoln got a kitchen. Which
he loves and uses all the time.

Aunt Kelsey. A squeaky toy he loves to chew on
it.

Tyler, Megan and Emmett and no baby yet. Everyone
came and stayed the night at our house. It was a lot
of fun.

Lincoln was spoiled rotten this year. He got
a bike from Al, Kel, Meg and Ty. He loves it and
the first thing he said when he got on was
"where is my helmet".

He got a super fun tent from Nana and Papa
and a sleeping bag. He loves playing in the tent.

Our Christmas eve dinner. We had a great
time with lots of good food.

Holding his buzz and woody, using his new chair
watching Toy Story 3.

We went to Oregon for Christmas this year.
Liz and Andy got us a place on the coast in
Lincoln City and we were able to stay there
with all our family. We got to go
down to the beach several times. Emmett
with Grandpa Fryer.

Playing with Grandma. Notice Lincoln is
standing right in the water. He can't help it,
he loves to get wet.

While we were there we got to make Ginger Bread
Houses.

On the way to the airport we stopped at the Tillamook

The night we got back from Oregon this cute
little boy was born. We are so glad that mom
and baby Hayden are doing well. Good job
Megan and Tyler we sure love that baby.

The three cousin's on my side. My boys seem so
big next to that little newborn.

Matching Brothers aren't they so cute!

Emmett is such a happy baby and has a great
smile so I had to include this cute picture.

New Years Eve.

only two pictures we took, sad! We did have a
great Christmas and New Years and had
such a great time spending it all with family.
Thanks everyone for all the wonderful presents
and the time you spend with our family. We are
so grateful for you all and love you all very much!
We can't wait to see what this next year has in store
for our family.
