linkies - 9 months old

i can't believe my little linkies is 9 months old. it's fun to see all the changes he's been going through. although, it does makes me a little sad to see him growing up. i wish they didn't have to grow so fast.



he's been making me laugh a lot lately doing all these funny baby things. all i have to do is say "hi" and he starts waving in this cute little baby way - sometimes hitting his own face with his own waving hand.


he's been crawling around like a pro for quite a while now, and ethan and i even saw him get up on one step of the stairs the other night (how do they figure these things out so quickly?). he's already working on his sixth tooth which is very unusual for my kids. my other kids had one, maybe two teeth by this time.


he's pretty much always in good humor. even when he is upset he tries to be happy and he ends up doing this cry/laugh thing. he is very patient and forgiving.



he's very vocal and i had to keep him out of the chapel through the entire sacrament meeting on sunday. he was never upset, just too loud making happy noises, most of them a growling kind of noise.

lincoln is a lot of fun and is such a joy to all of us. we are so glad to have him in our family.

he is proof to me that Heavenly Father knows exactly what he's doing. before he was born i thought things were going to be completely crazy and out of control with four little kids. truth is, it isn't as bad as i was expecting it to be and, as it turns out, lincoln is exactly what i need right now.

It's hard to believe that 9 months have gone by. He is adorable and I wish I was there to hug and squeeze him. :) :) He looks a bit like Ethan did as a baby. What do you think?
