6 months

This post is long overdue considering in 2 weeks he will 7 months but I need to document!

Linc is 6 months old and growing up so fast. At his checkup he was:
17 lbs - 35%
26.5 - 52%
Head - 17 in - 33%

For those of you who spend anytime around Lincon or us, you probably know that he doesn't cry. Sure he whines and whimpers every once in awhile but he doesn' ever full on cry - - except when he gets his shots. Adam and I have been able to go to every appointment so far except for this last one I had to go alone and I struggled listening to my baby scream. I hate it :( It has definently gotten worse the older he gets. But he was a trooper the rest of the day and was all smiles after he woke up from his nap.

We did a little photoshoot - - and he wasn't very cooperative. He wasn't crying or fussing or anything - he just wouldn't smile. Something about when I put that big black camera in front of my face makes the smiles go away. I need to make something like this:

A few things about Linc
-He is rolling everywhere. He started rolling at 5 months, but now when I put him down in 1 spot, 5 minutes later he is across the room and backwards.
- He is sitting like a champ.
- Has a scratching fettish. When he is in his crip, he scratches the sheets. When he is in his carseat, he scratches the belt. When he sits on my lap, he scratches my jeans. He also scratches our skin and himself so we have to make sure to keep those nails short!
- Loves his food - except the meat baby food. We tried that 1 day and he literally dry heaved. I think we'll wait another month before we gave that a try. (Although I don't even know if I'll ever give it to him because it smells like cat food and looks disgusting)
- His favorite foods are: rice cereal, peas, & carrots. He is starting to like sweet potatos and wasn't a big fan of bananas on the first go around but we'll see.
- Sleeps 11-12 hours a night. He is still waking up about once to eat on occassion but he is so cute so he gets away with it. Goes to bed at 8:45 or 9 and gets up at 8:30 most days.
-Loves taking naps on mom and dad's bed. He looks like a King in the middle of our King size bed.
- Loves hanging out with dad. Adam has been on his 7 week break from school so he has been the stay at home dad. They have been spending lots of time together. :)
- Still spits and blows bubbles a lot. However he has been talking a lot lately too.

 

In the middle of this video is Lincon's "cry"

Here are a few goodies from our little photoshoot. Of course we had to do some Boise State pictures . . . Go Boise!
