9 months old!

Lincoln turned 9 months old on October 23!

Gone are our days of being able to get wonderful, super-cute photos of him easily. He never stays still!


Hey, look! The wall!



The "I'm a winner!" pose:

Crawl, crawl, crawl:


Linc always sits on his knees, never his butt:

Official 9-month stats:
19 lbs, 12 oz
29 inches long
Dr. Griesemer says, "He's not a fragile child." Ha!
Lincoln's favorites at 9 months:
*Crawling*
*Crawling*
*Crawling some more!*
*Crawling holding on to a toy in one hand*
*Sitting on his knees*
*Dancing & bopping*
*"Mamama," "Dadada," "Bababa"*
*Clapping hands*
*Giving fives*
*Talking, squealing, shrieking*
(this has been a favorite for a while. Apparently we have a vocal child.)
*Eating*
*Looking at people & other babies; talking to them, too*
*Llama cat*
*Peek-a-boo and hide and seek*
*Being outside!*
*Grandpa (Grandma too, but Linc loves guys)*
9-month dislikes:
*Teething*
(but still only has 2 teeth!)
*Waking at 5 or 6 AM wide awake*
(oh wait: this is one of my & George's dislikes!)
(and Linc hasn't done this since last week, so hopefully it's over for a while)
*Rousing when we put him in the crib & yelling his head off*
And: I am NOT looking forward to the time change.
Lincoln will probably wake up Sunday morning
at 6:00 AM ready to eat! (he usually eats at 7 AM)
Lincoln is such a wonderful little boy.
We are so blessed!

Seriously--Lincoln woke up at 5:21 AM Sunday morning! He went back to sleep on George until 7, and has done pretty well yesterday & today. Hopefully he's back to normal! How did Madeline do?
