9 months

Lincon is already 9 months and a week so I guess I better get going.

I was so relieved to know that at 9 months there is no shots!! So the doctor's office was quick and painless this time around.

Weight 18.2 - 14% (Has only gained 1.4 lbs since 6 months - Guess I need to feed him more!)
Height 28 in. - 40%
Head 17.8  - 43%

He started crawling around 8 months (maybe a little before). He did the army crawl with the left arm and right foot mostly but has since moved to his knees until he figures out how much faster he is on his belly and switches back to the army.

He pulls himself up onto whatever he can. He loves standing by the couch, crib, the tub, chairs, legs, etc. He has finally figured out how to get back down to a sitting position from standing which has decreased the number of bonks on the head from falling backwards however it does still happen.

His favorite toys that aren't actually toys - -
Vents. He loves running his hands up and down our big vents. The other day when our home teachers were over (one of them lives below us), he commented how they were laughing the other night when they heard Lincon "discovering" the vents. 
Bathroom scale. He loves loves pounding on it. Especially when we are in the bathroom getting ready.
Entertainment center. He pulls all of our movies out multiple times a day. We have started just throwing them back in instead of straightening them everytime. I don't mind and it keeps him entertained.
Doorstops. What baby doesn't love doorstops. When you flick them they make an awesome sound :) He has already broken one off -- whoops :)
Cords. Of course he tries to pull every cord so we have just designated an old xbox cord thing that he gets to play with.

He babbles, talks, and blows his lips constantly. Dad is the best at getting him laughing and he loves playing. We are loving seeing him grow and learn but it is going to fast. Sorry no pictures this time - - I will post some pictures and videos next time.

Halloween 2011

I stink at blogging. It's a fact. I'm going to try and post some things I missed and back date them.....

As for Halloween this year, we decided to take Linc down to Shelley so he could go trick or treating with his cousins and see his grandparents. He has had a cold for awhile so we only took him to a couple houses (plus he doesn't eat candy - - it was all for us :).

We had fun eating pizza with family on the Balmforth side, visiting Great-Grandma & Grandpa, and my parents. He was a tropper and didn't try and pull off his head piece once!

This was the end of the night... don't judge :)
