We went to the doctor for Lincoln's six month wellness check up. He did awesome, as usual. This time the doctor called him a "champion." I agree. Most people do. He also said I get bonus points for his perfectly shaped head. Thank you. Link had three more shots and hardly cried at all. By the time the band aids are on he is smiling again.
He weighed 19 pounds 9 ounces (85%) and 27 inches long (72%). I am so proud of my big boy! He loves to stand up if you hold his hands and is getting better at sitting up everyday. He tucks his legs under his butt to try and crawl forward and he scoots around that way. He rolls all over and he turns in circles on his tummy. He likes to turn to all the stations in his bouncer and loves to jump up and down in it. He loves to play with his feet and he is always thinking of ways he can get a hold on everything around him.
Link loves to say "baba" (which is what my sister has nicknamed herself) and "dada" (which makes Chase really proud). He loves to blow raspberries with his mouth or on his arm or on any skin he can find. He does an Indian sound with his mouth to his hand and turns his head back and forth. He also makes a clicking sound with his tongue and we talk back and forth in clicks. He also likes to gurgle if he is laying on his back and he thinks that's really funny. He is getting smart and is understanding that he can make people laugh. He will blow a raspberry on my arm, look at me and wait for me to laugh, then he will start laughing, and then do it all again on repeat.
He still likes vegetables more than fruits and loves to eat tables foods like grains of rice or pieces of bread or pasta. Link loves the graduate fruit puff things. He really just wants to nurse all the time though, which I don't mind.
He is wearing 12 month clothes mostly. He has a few 9 month things that still fit and he has a few 12-18 month things that he wears. I love to put him in those romper outfits because they just seem so comfy and they are so convenient.
His eyes are very blue and his hair is growing in thicker everyday but it is so light you can hardly see it. He still loves his bath and diaper changes.
We are so in love with this kid! I can't believe his is 1/2 a year old already. We are so lucky to be his parents. I love him so much!

Look guys. I'm not just a "Lincoln log"
Getting too big for this tiny bed! But it's still fun to roll around the house.
Reading his favorite book with dad. The very hungry caterpillar.
