2 Month Check Up

Lincoln is sure worn out from his 2 month check up. 3 shots and one really good peeing all over the doctor's wall and we got out of there. At 10.5 weeks he is weighing in at 14lbs 12.3oz, almost a whopping 15 pounds and is 24inches long. He is in the 75% for length and width, no wonder he cries at night, he must be growing constantly. He is also officially teething and has two little white poky teeth that are trying to get out. The doctor doesn't think they will come out any time too soon, but they are there and hopefully won't come out too quick. I don't think mommy will like that too much. After getting his shots he wasn't too happy but passed out on the drive home, took a little nap in his car seat, ate a little more and is now napping in bed giving me a little time to eat lunch and hopefully grab a cat nap as well.
Here's a random shot: I took this picture of Liko and Tom enjoying a meal together. I can't feed Tom cat food while Liko is outside so I've just started giving him dog food so I can feed them both at the same time. Hopefully that's ok for him, he seems to like it. Luckily our black and white animals get along ok :)

Overnight Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls

I've been tweaking this overnight sourdough cinnamon roll recipe over the last few months and I think it's finally, exactly, the way I like it. We love this for slow weekend mornings, to take to family and friends, or for special holiday get togethers. It's also the same recipe I use when making them to sell locally. I've been keeping it under wraps for no reason in particular but it's just too good not to share.  I don't have a reliable kitchen scale so this recipe uses good old fashion cups and goes a lot by the feeling of the dough. It will get messy but don't be discouraged if it doesn't turn out just right the first time. No matter the flop, these cinnamon rolls will never disappoint taste wise.  The PDF printable can be found here or you can keep reading.  Overnight Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls  The night before you want to make rolls: 8 Tablespoons cold butter, shredded (a whole stick) 2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose or bread flour  1/2 cup sourdou...

Keeping up with the Sadlers

Lincoln favorite new past time, listen closely for "Dada"  Dylan had cowboy day at school and could dress up and meet "real cowboys". We live in a hick town and his school was having an assembly about the cowboy way , or having character. Yes, Lincoln's bib is purplish, but it says I Love my Sister so it's ok :)  Cute big boy outfit Auntie Jackie got Lincoln, while sticking out his tongue. I think it looks like a little pickle. Weird, another tongue shot, he does it a lot. While playing with a plush orange (like the fruit) it sort of landed like this and I thought it looked a little like a bikini top and snapped a pic. Hey you have to have fun with life right?

Best Friends by Force

We weren't necessarily planning on having two under two initially but now that we are almost two year into it and survived the newborn stage, I can say with confidence that it is possible and we are starting to see some benefits.  Lincoln, the two year old and my middle boy, wanted nothing to do with his baby brother Warner. He knew a baby was taking everyone's attention, including his beloved oldest brother. He admires and tries to be exactly like his older brother most of the time. Until recently the two youngest wouldn't even play together. Warner was too young to understand play. Lincoln was too busy to be bothered by a baby. When school started I was home alone with the two little boys for hours on end and they were forced to spend time digging in the sand box together, destroying each other's block fortresses, trading colds and playing tiger tag. Lincoln has been doing much more preschool with me and we always make sure to include Warner if he isn't napping...
