We had a Family fondue dessert and boy did things get messy. But it was delish!
Lincoln had his friend Kailey over for a bit the other day and they played really well together.
We went on a walk at a new metropark in the area and we couldn't keep this one out of the grass.
This is a glimpse of how WILD Vienna's hair can be in the mornings.
He is such an oatmeal MOnster..why can't it be a cleaner food to eat???
TOday we went to Patterson's Farm and got their O-so-delicious Honey Crisp Apples, a donut and took part in their Fall Family Fun Fest! It was a blast!
The tractor park/slide was a hit with the little boys.
he found a piece of broken stem on the pumpkin
On the hayride (tractor pull) heading out to all the activities
There were a bunch of tractors for the kids to crawl in and play on, this was an old combine with a box full of corn. The kids love it! (when I changed Lincoln afterward I found corn in his diaper, shoes, pants...everywhere!) I loved the smell because it brought back memories of spending time at my cousins farm. Those were the good 'ol days!
This is a 30ft slide that is in the tree and we all had such a blast going down it, over and over and over!
My favorite things were the little Tractor Tricycles that were actually made out of metal and just like a tractor.
The tire swing was a blast too! Vienna with her good friend Sloan. (too bad they are missing Evie)

Finally...our little man is 17 Months old today!
A BIT ABOUT 17 Month old LINCOLN
Currently he is pretty average size, bigger than his sister was but he is a boy. He is pretty much running. It's more of a trot, but thats about all his little legs can do for now. He is obsessed with cars, trucks (especially real ones), climbing up on things, closing doors (just lately), being in the bathroom whenever anyone else is, pushing any button (in the van, garage door, turning on/off lights and of course his snuggly (it's quite adorable)
He has several words: dirty, backpack, ouch, push, off, on, more, please, Nenna, Mama, Dada, rock, walk, and truck (which all kinda sound the same right now), dog etc.
He knows where several of his body parts are (eyes, cheeks, tongue, lips, nose, hair, forehead, ears, belly button, toes etc)
If I ask him to go get his socks and shoes he does it and comes back to have me put them on. He understands a ton!
We are working on holding our hands in parking lots and dangerous places and he doesn't want to be carried anymore, he asks to walk.
He is a little lost while Vienna goes to pre-school, especially at the gym at child watch all alone :( poor guy
He LOVES his big sister so much, it is adorable! Thank goodness she is such a sweet heart and for the most part loves him back just as much!
He, of course, loves his Daddy! he just lights up whenever Daddy gets home from school.
He isn't a great napper, on average it is 1 - 1 hour nap and I'd much prefer it to be about 2 hours. he goes to bed at 7 for the most part and wakes up at 7. he is a great sleeper.
He still only has 10 teeth, 8 anteriors and his 2 top molars, but his bottoms one will be in very soon. He gets 1 bottle before bed and some milk during the day, but doesn't seem too interested in that lately.
He really enjoys giving kisses, reading books, going on walks, playing outside, playing with any ball and wrestling. When music comes on he loves to dance. We also play hide and seek, which he seems to enjoy (he is a very good finder, but not so great at hiding) and is really getting interested in puzzles too.
All in all he is pretty chill, but if you do something to upset him, he will let you know with a yell, or if he is bored in the car he will yell. Its funny but can be annoying too.
Lets see...He is very spacially aware of his body and when he falls down he just brushes it off. No whining, just a tough guy. His right eye still has a blocked tear duct and he may need to have surgery done, but otherwise he is a completely healthy little man. We just love getting to know him better and seeing his little personality flourish. We love having our little Linc's man in the Fam!
