Lincoln is a year old!

Lincoln turned one year old on January 23rd!

He is such a smiley, happy, wonderful little man.

What did we do before he came along??

He is the joy of our lives!

Lincoln's 1-year stats

Weight: 21 pounds, 1 oz (24th percentile)

Height: 30" (58th percentile)

AND he has 6 teeth! 2 on bottom & 4 on top

Our chubby chunka boy is starting to get longer and leaner like his daddy.

1-year likes & loves:

*LLAMA CAT*

(calls Llama "Ba", like "ball" without the "l"s.

Hey, it rhymes with Llama!)

*Eating*

*Crawling super fast, cruising,

standing alone for a few seconds until he realizes he is*

*Babbling nonstop*

*Laughing*

*Dogs--

seeing them, seeing pictures of them, hearing them bark*

*Drinking water from the straw cup*

*Pushing his walker truck, dining room chairs, his high chair...*

*Books*

*Balls*

*Dancing*

*Rolling balls under the couch*

*Pushing buttons on things he's not supposed to touch:

remote controls, TV, speaker, phone*

Lincoln says

"Mama" & "Dada"

"ruff ruff" & "meow"

"at" (hat)

"ot" (hot)

"uh oh"

"hey"

"quack" (OK, he said that once. Yesterday.)

"I love you"

No, really! The other day I said "I love you!",

and since he'd just heard a dog bark, he ruffed & said "I love you."

Seriously! It was very Scooby Doo-ish: "Ri Ruv U."

But it REALLY sounded like "I love you"!

1-year dislikes:

*Teething*

*Being sick (first cold & ear infection around his birthday)*

*Being told "no"*

*Not being able to talk & tell us what he wants*

*Having face & hands washed, teeth brushed, or nose wiped*

I can't believe he is (over) a year old already!
