Nine Months of Lincoln

We had a rough month between RSV and teething. I am so glad he is finally feeling better! He now 
has 3 teeth, and one more is about to come through.
Lincoln weighs around 20 pounds and is around 29-30 inches long. He wears mainly 9-12 month clothes. 
He sleeps well when he is feeling good. He goes to bed around 8 o'clock and sleeps until 5 or 6 o'clock. At home he takes two 1-2 hour naps a day, but at school he only sleeps 30-60 minutes. 
Lincoln loves to eat, especially food. He drinks a bottle first thing in the morning, late morning and afternoon, and one more before bed. He also eats 3 big meals a day. He is getting really good at getting puffs and banana pieces in his mouth.
He still isn't crawling, but is very mobile. He still gets where he wants by scooting himself with one leg behind him. It is getting very tricky to take pictures of him because he won't sit still. He "talks" a lot.

Dear Lincoln,
You are too sweet! Your smile makes me melt EVERY single time. You have become aware of when we leave and you don't like that. You love your brother and are always interested in what he is doing, You don't want to miss out. You enjoyed having Papa Mel here. Him and you were early morning and late night buddies. You love being outside and swinging at the park. Everything about shouts joy, I pray that is always true!
We are so glad you are part of our family. I love watching you learn and grow!
Love, Mommy
