What Linc has been up too!

Just wanted to write a couple things about Linc so that I don't forget:
- Started walking around 11 months and is now running. This makes church pretty painful because all he wants to do is run! We have to trap him in the bench and he doesn't like that very much.
- Knows where eyes, nose, and ears are.
- Says Dad A LOT - and mama sometimes. Says Uh-oh- and a lot of jibberish that I don't really understand :)
- Will sometime talk through his nose - for those who know him know what I'm talking about. It's annoying and funny at the same time. Adam said tonight that he would have been a good Aboriginal because apparently that is how they talk. Ha
- Is for the most part a great sleeper. Sleeps 10-11 hours at night and is still taking 2 naps a day.
- He is a crazy sleeper! He will not stay in the same place. If I go and check on him one minute and check on him 5 minutes later - he is clear across his crib and backwards. Needless to say - if he ever gets up crying in the night and I bring him into my bed or sleep with him on the couch for a bit - I don't sleep. He tosses and turns like crazy. I'm so happy that for the most part he loves his crib :)
- Not a very good eater. I usually have to force feed him food. He of course has his favorites and it isn't always a chore but most of the time he doesn't eat very well. He loves yogurt, applesauce, toast, granola bars, and most baby food. I mostly have a problem giving him "big people" food. He hates meat and has a very sensitive gag reflex. Is it strange to still be feeding my almost 15 month baby food? Keep in mind he only has 2 teeth on bottom and his top two teeth are only about 1/2 through. I hate buying baby food but at least he is getting some vegetables and fruit in his diet.
- Like I said above - has 2 teeth on bottom and his top two have come halfway down. I think he is going to have a gap between his front teeth. Just like his mom did when she was young :)
- Loves electronics. Phones, remote control, xbox controller, computer mouse, etc. He has even thrown my nice wireless apple mouse in the toilet and the blu ray remote in the toilet. Our fault! Need to keep that lid down!
- His favorite drawer is still the spatula, spoon, measuring cup drawer and I am constantly finding them strewn through the house. It drives Adam crazy but I don't mind. Whatever keeps him entertained :)
- Has learned how to climb onto the couches recently. If we are on the couch - he needs to be too.
- Loves animals. For awhile we had horses behind our house and if we would say to him "Do you want to go see the horseys?" He would respond with a big grin- "Eeeeeeee." (It is hard to spell out baby sounds, ha ha). He loves petting (hitting) the horses and has even gone on a couple rides with grandpa.


-Loves playing xbox with dad and even sometimes yells at the TV just like him!! HA HA

- Plays peek-a-boo, blows kisses, gives kisses, clicks his tongue, and blows raspberries.
-Gives the best slobbery kisses ever.

That is all for now!
