Baby Lincoln and Baby Evan

Even though Lincoln has been walking for months (6 months!) I don't really think of him as a toddler yet - he's still our baby!  And up until a few weeks ago it wasn't at all confusing to call him baby.

Now we have a new baby.  But, of course, we don't wish for our *old* baby to feel displaced!  So now I make a point when talking to Lincoln of labeling Evan as "baby EVAN".  So Lincoln knows he is still our baby Lincoln.  Silly?  Maybe!  But harmless.  :)

How does the 15 month old like his late birthday present?  He's not big on words, so we have no direct quotes.  He *seems* pleased, however!  He wants to hold the baby, carry the baby, and play with the baby.  He brings blankets and pats his head.  He displays a *tad* more exuberance, perhaps, than Evan can yet handle!  That's okay though, because babies grow all too quickly; soon they will be running around together, and until then we'll be keeping a close eye on Lincoln when he's interacting with his little friend!

Baby Lincoln was awesome about taking some pictures with Baby Evan.

Aren't they adorable?  Evan could have pulled out some smiles, true, but he IS only 2 weeks old in these pictures.  So we will cut him a break.  I hope Evan and Lincoln will be best buddies forever.  I think it's off to a promising start!
