Video for Grandma

This is a quick post to show a video I made for my Grandma9 who isn't doing too well right now. We'll post pictures of our new addition (Liberty Mie Squires) soon.

Made it through the first year....so why not start all over?

So we're not good at updating the blog....That's a fact. Another fact is that we made it through our first year with Lincoln. That's a pretty big accomplishment if you ask us! We want to thank all of the gifts that were sent for Lincoln. It's apparently clear that he is spoiled. But he is so damn cute that it's hard not to spoil him.

The other big news that everyone probably already knows is that Holly is pregnant again. Yes, we loved the first year so much, that we decided to start all over again! Her due date is November 18th, but we have a scheduled c-section for November 11th. That is of course if she makes it that long. Lincoln came 2 weeks early, so we're hoping she makes it to the 11th. The first question everyone probably wants to know is the sex of our new addition. Most of the family knows, all except for me! I decided I wanted it to be a surprise so everyone has been really good at keeping it a secret....so far. Of course it makes decorating the nursery and making plans more difficult. My dad tells me I should get off my high horse and stop being stupid. I have to admit that while part of me wants to know, it's been fun annoying the hell out of my dad! Just kidding. I just figured there are so few surprises left in life that it will make the new baby's birth day so much more exciting.

So what has happened over the past 6 months? Well I'll let the pictures tell the story...Enjoy and we love and miss everyone!

Yes it snowed in Charleston this winter and yes those are plastic bags on Lincon's feet.

Mommy and Lincoln.

Lincoln's first Birthday. There is no way to keep a baby clean with cake in front of him!

How does one get spaghetti on his head?


Look at those eyes!






Fun times in Port Charlotte! We love playing at the beach and in the fountains!

What an exhausting year!

Lincoln feeding himself with a spoon for the first time!

We love and wish everyone the best!

Four Months Older and Wiser...

Wow!!! Was it really September the last time we updated this? I could use the excuse that we've been busy with the holidays, taking care of Lincoln and a whole laundry list of other reasons, but....well ok, we have no other real excuses. Needless to say, it's been very busy in the Squires household. So before we update everyone, we want to play a little game. There's a secret message in this blog posting. 100 points to anyone who can find it!!

So since September, Lincoln was baby superman for Halloween, had his first baby Thanksgiving (baby food Turkey which he didn't enjoy the first time he tried it), got lots of wonderful baby clothes and toys for Christmas, welcomed the 2010 baby new year, started eating baby food 3 times a day and got his first baby teeth! He's also sitting on his own now, scooting in circles on his little baby stomach, and saying Dada and Mama (but we're pretty sure they are accidental in nature). He started trying to wave this week but does it at completely random times and he almost has his 'high five' down. We'll have him saluting before you know it! Yes, we've been real busy! But we're positive everyone is here to see the pictures so we won't belate your wishes any farther....

Can you see my baby teeth?

That's one bad kitty....

Baby, that's one future MVP!!

Will I make a good big brother?

We hope all of our family and friends enjoyed the latest post. Give us a call if you figured out the message! Love Everyone~ Nick, Holly, Lincoln and the rest of the clan....
