Just Like Dad

Lincoln loves to do anything that Ryan is doing. They have been little buddies right from the start. Lincoln learned how to do push-ups just by watching Ryan one day - we never told him "Get down and try to push yourself up" or encouraged him to try - he just saw dad and wanted to do it.


The other day he saw Ryan putting a belt on for work and Link of course wanted HIS belt on - right then! I didn't get a picture, but imagine a little braided belt fastened over footie pj's.

Link LOVES to brush his teeth since he was very little. (His great-grandma who was a dental hygienist should be very proud) He had his first 2 teeth by the time he was 5 months old, so I guess he had to start early! He currently has 2 different toothbrushes that he uses - an Elmo toothbrush, and one that looks like a fire truck. Of course, if daddy is brushing his teeth it must be time for Link to brush his teeth too!

What a pair! That Link is too cute for words. And your Thanksgiving sounded so fun! Some day I'd like to see that parade in person.

I imagined the belt over footie pajamas and recalled when I wore a belt over footie pajamas...and fly pajamas...and a skirt...

Atleast he will brush his teeth--it is a 2 person job with lucy and it sounds like we are trying to kill her while we are doing it. He looks so grown up.

Link is lucky to have such a good example for a daddy! :)

Cute. It must make Ryan feel really good that Lincoln looks up to him so much.

That is so cute! It always makes me nervous that Carly will learn something BAD by watching us, haha. By the way, that is so cool that you got to go to the parade!
