A New Friend For Lincoln

In our home, in our bedroom, directly above Katie's and my bed we have a ceiling fan. Normally one does not find much comfort or solace from such an inanimate object and definitely not friendship. Lincoln, however, has found all those things in our bedroom ceiling fan. When he is fussy or frustrated with life, as baby often can get, we just place on our bed and he starts smiling and then sometimes laughing. Today I brought him in to our bed when we woke up and of course he had no interest in mom and dad all he wanted to do was talk with his friend. I decided to leave and when I got to the door I said Lincoln's name trying to get his attention. He smiled even bigger but didn't look at me, he kept his eyes fixed on the fan. I thought it necessary to explain to him that it was me calling his name and not the fan, I don't think he believed me.

Bathtime and 2 months

Lincoln loves taking a bath. He also is pretty good in the shower when we are pressed for time. What a handsome boy in his hooded towel.
Linc is so good at holding himself up when he actually stays on his tummy. A lot of the time he will just roll over right away.
Well today we had Lincoln's 2 month check up at the doctor. He actually did pretty well during the shots. He cried for a few minutes but then I fed him and he was great the rest of the day. The doctor says he looks great and everything sounds good. Here are the stats
Length: 23 inches (50-75%)
Weight: 12lbs 12oz (75%)
Head Circumference: 40.5 cm (75%)

The Dark Knight

Yesterday we went to see the Dark Knight, the new Batman movie, We both thought that it was awesome. Heath Ledger did an amazing job as the joker and stole the show. Wells Fargo bought out an entire theatre so that all of the employees from Nebo to the point of the mountain could go see it, they do it every year. I thought that it was a great sequel to the first, Batman Begins. I highly recommend it to anyone that loves a good action, superhero, good vs evil film.

F.B.I Internship

I received an e-mail from a friend concerning a paid internship with the FBI for next summer. I read all I could about it and talked it over with Katie and we have decided that I should apply for it. Over the past year, ever since my obsession started with the FBI, I have been looking for an internship, I found one but it was unpaid and so I knew that that couldn't work especially now that we are parents. This one, however, is and the pay is based on ones years in school. By the end of next Spring I will have 87 credits which puts me three credits shy of being considered a Senior. Oh well, the pay is $15.21-$24.95 an hour, so hopefully I land somewhere in the middle. This opportunity is really great and would put me closer to my goal of becoming an Agent, because to have the job one must have a full background check done so as to have Top Security Clearance. If accepted for the internship we would leave at the beginning of June and head for the DC area and would be there for 10 weeks. The job description says that one is placed according to his/her degree, which means that I would probably be working in the Cyber Crime Division. I know that it is really competitive and that there is a good chance that I won't even be accepted so I won't be depressed if I don't get it. But for now I am way excited!!

Sidesleeper?

Well I think Lincoln might become a side sleeper as soon as he can keep himself all the way on one side for an extended period.
