two wireless routers

hmmm... that sounds cool cause you obviously want to have unbelievable wireless connection i assume right? well i just did alittle research on google and it so happens you can have an AP on each side of the house and it will work. You probley have to do alittle configureing.. but i just saw a diagram and it works.

Asus A7N8X Deluxe
80gb Maxtor
200gb WD 8mb cache..
Lian-Li PC-60
LiteOn 52X/LiteOn 811s DVD-RW
AMD XP2800+
LeadTek GF4Ti4200 128mb
Hitachi CML174
1GB Corsair XMS PC3200

i can probly make do with just one router but the house is pretty big and its 2 floors in the back of the house, just thought it would be good to have one situated in a good location for the bedrooms then another in the attic near the backyard.

You can buy a second Router/AP combo and simply use it as an AP. Typically they are cheaper than dedicated AP's. The only real configuration you'd have to do is use non overlapping channels on the two devices. You can choose from channels 1,6, and/or 11. I'd use the same SSID and encryption keys/passphrases etc... So I assume you have network drops on the other side of the room connected to your wired infrastructure? Or were you asking if the second AP could be used to repeat? In that case you'll need a WDS primary AP (your existing AP/Router combo) and either an AP that supports WDS or use a third party firmware for something like the Linksys WRT54G. Router/AP combos only function as AP's usually. Very, very few exceptions however with the WRT54G you can get aftermarket firmware that allows this functionality.

Incorrect. There was one or two off off brands that the router/AP combo had briding functionality natively. Linksys is not one of them. However, as mentioned, if you get the WRT54G you can get third party firmware to accomplish this. As a rule AP/ROuter combo's don't bridge. The only exception out of the box I have ever seen was a Buffalo device and one other that I can't remember at the moment. Definitely not Linksys.
